Here’s a great story to just relax and listen to…
It’s about adapting and figuring things out … when others tell you there is no hope.
It’s a gentle story of overcoming with a great ending…
Relax with a great cup of coffee and enjoy.

She Lined Her Walls With Wool — Unaware It Saves Her When a Blizzard Buries the Town
She Lined Her Walls With Wool — Unaware It Saves Her When a Blizzard Buries the Town
She was a shepherdess who couldn't afford wood. She tacked raw, unwashed sheep’s wool over every inch of her drafty shack's interior. The lanolin in the wool repelled moisture…

Thank you God for everything you have done for us…
Look how much we have changed!!! People care about the things that matter.
Honesty … because we have seen so much deception.
Turning back to You … because we have seen what it looks like when we don’t put out relationship with You first…
Learning to fight for what is important … because Your gift of time is so precious that we don’t want to waste a minute on empty pursuits.
Learning to see the world as You do … because when we see the world as You do … we live in with peace, strength and contentment.
We have learned to change what you call us to change in the world … and put down our expectations because we know You are working ALL things for good!!
Looking at the individual gifts You have given us and how far we have come … thank You.
The doors you have opened …
The friends we have made along the way … because they have become family.
Thank you this day and every day … we choose You first. God first. Christ first. First in our lives … first in our homes … first in the world.
In Jesus Name

Morning thoughts…
In these shifting seasons, I keep noticing how easily we get caught in the whirlwind. Headlines scream, opinions flare, and suddenly people are switching teams—not out of conviction, but out of the moment. One day aligned here, the next day there, blown like autumn leaves every time the cultural wind changes direction. It’s exhausting to watch, and even more disturbing when it reveals the real foundation: momentary ideological team-building instead of something eternal.
But, we were never called to live that way.
God invites us into a different posture … one of long obedience in the same direction. Not chasing the loudest voice or the newest alliance, but fixing our eyes on His unchanging heart and walking the path He’s marked for our lives. When we do that, the distractions lose their power. Peace becomes possible … not the fragile kind the world offers, but the deep, anchoring peace that only comes from seeing everything through His eyes rather than our own limited ones.
Ephesians 4:14 warns us so clearly: we are no longer to be “infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching.” That verse isn’t just poetic … it’s a loving rebuke to the double-minded instability so many of us slip into when we let personal opinions or tribal loyalty become our compass. The moment we trade God’s eternal perspective for the latest emotional high or fear-driven reaction, we forfeit the solid ground we were meant to stand on.
Instead, let’s choose the long game … the one that actually leaves the world better because we were here. Not in flashy, headline-grabbing ways, but in the quiet, faithful contributions that shine because God is first. Whether in large acts of justice or small, unseen acts of kindness, our work becomes meaningful when it flows out of His path for us. We stop building sandcastles of ideology and start planting seeds that will outlast our lifetimes. We become examples … not of perfect politics, but of souls cared for with the same tenderness Christ showed us.
Matthew 6:33 puts it simply and powerfully: “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” When that is our daily priority, everything else … our opinions, our alignments, our fears … falls into its proper, secondary place. Suddenly we’re not leaves in the wind; we’re trees planted by streams of living water, roots deep, branches steady, bearing fruit that nourishes others.
This is what it looks like to care for the human soul of our neighbor … refusing to let the world’s chaos define our love. It means extending grace even when it’s unpopular, speaking truth even when it costs us “likes,” and choosing mercy over mockery. It means walking humbly with our God (Micah 6:8), eyes lifted, hearts soft, hands open to serve rather than score points.
And the beautiful promise? When our minds stay steadfast on Him, He keeps us in perfect peace (Isaiah 26:3). Not because the storms stop, but because we’ve learned to see them from His vantage point … temporary, passing, already under His feet.
So today I’m choosing again … no more distraction-driven side-switching. No more building on the shifting sand of the moment. Just steady, prayerful steps along God’s path … leaving every place I touch a little more like heaven because His love shone through me. Will you join me? Not in a new “team,” but in the ancient, beautiful resolve to put Him first and let everything else flow from there.
The world doesn’t need more loud opinions. It needs more steady lights … souls anchored in the One who never changes. Let’s be those lights, one faithful day at a time.
“Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.”
1 Corinthians 15:58
Unwavering with love,
Donna

Spring is here; I don't care what the calendar or the weatherman says.
I spent hours outside in my garden, barefoot, with a tee shirt & sweatpants. That was enough to keep warm & make contact with the earth and sunlight. It was good.
Now I'm sore! Back, arms, fingertips tender from all the squatting, reaching, pulling, clipping, pruning motions I haven't done for months.
But the lamb's ear is cleaned up, the catnip sheared down, the new buds spotted and hoped for on my young tree and other bushes, and all of my panicle hydrangeas in the ground have been pruned for the first time (and all cuts--hopefully all-- sealed to keep out the borers). That's...let's just say that's a lot of bushes. 😆
Some of them were planted almost 3yrs ago, some last year. But they all had "issues" after this winter, and/or their early days before I got them. I'm learning to make decisions as to where to cut to get their forms growing as I would like them to grow.
As this is my first time with that focus, I learned that each one has its own instincts and desires. I can guess at the history which lead to where they are now. Some of them didn't get a good effort, I'm guessing, in previous pruning and care. I can remember what they looked with leaves and blooms, and now with their skeletal forms all bare, I can see, I think, what they need to grow better moving forward, and I tried to help them along today. I look forward to seeing the results over the next few months....

People are similar, if you think about it. Some things are, naturally, genetic. Some things are nurtured (or not). Sometimes the outside world causes us damage we could never have avoided, and then we just try to grow around the damage. We try to go in the direction which leads to survival.
Some things, and people, bear scars. You can say, "Something bad must have happened in their childhood", and you might be right. What can you do to help heal that scar?
One must always work with our knowledge of nature, but recognize that "Nature's God" knows far more than we do. We can only do so much, but we can try to help someone in need.
I like taking on plants that need help. I've learned how to nurture them. I know they can look and feel so much healthier with a little effort on my part, a little help from nature, and a little time. Then I get to watch. It brings me joy, and they give back, in their own way. It's addictive.
Some people are good at helping plants. Some with animals. Some with people. Donna is so very knowledgeable about horses. I could talk with her all day about horses and dogs and plants. She is very good at helping people, too. She is a generally happy person, don't you think? Perhaps it's from the joy she finds in all the helping.

What comes to mind when I reflect on our entire globalist structure and conversation is about the deep spiritual fracture is the root … the love of money as the compromising vector
The systems built on greed, the observable "takedown" moves in policy and justice, and personal battles we have all fought makes it evident .. the profound sense of alignment between the unseen war and the visible shake-ups.
I’m not buying anything I see or hear right now because, just like in politics, the propaganda is usually 2 wings on the same bird.
I ask the question why?
They changed from racial and gender division focus to … who do you follow or what team are you on … to which country is in the right.
There is a whole underlying structure that no one is mentioning.
First people are not being differentiated from the usurping parasitic globalist mindset based in the culture of greed - material worship over God and people.
Second it’s not as centralized as we are lead to believe.
The largest failure point is the spiritual fracture of individuals as we wrestle with the spiritual fight between good and evil.
👆
Every global structure is the result of an individual spiritual fracture. They wouldn’t exist without people who are complicit engaging in self gain.
Policies are the result in trying to control the situation and they can become their own problem.
So let’s look at a switch in policies and go down through the levels being coveted up by the propaganda.

Starting the day off right!!!
How much of what we see is real? Almost none of it can be reliably confirmed.
So let’s focus on what we know…
God is faithful
God does not change
God is above all those things that we don’t control
God teaches our souls how to return to trust.
Trust God … no matter what

So Sad it’s come to this point in our lives! Someone posted this and it's true in my opinion!
We are living in a Bizarre World:
• If a dude pretends to be a woman, you are required to pretend with him.
• Somehow it’s un-American for the census to count how many Americans are in America.
• Russians influencing our elections are bad, but illegal Mexicans voting in our elections is good.
• Twenty is too young to drink a beer, but eighteen is old enough to vote.
• Sexualizing children is bad, but 11-year-old drag queens are good.
• Illegals aren't required to show ID, but citizens can't buy cough medicine without it.
• Citizens are fined if they don’t buy their own health insurance, and then they are forced to buy it for illegals.
• People who have never owned slaves should pay slavery reparations to people who have never been slaves.
• Inflammatory rhetoric is outrageous, but harassing people in restaurants is virtuous.
• People who have never been to college should pay the debts of college students who took out huge loans for useless degrees.
• Immigrants with tuberculosis and polio are welcome, but you’d better be able to prove your dog is vaccinated.
• Irish doctors and German engineers who want to immigrate must go through a rigorous vetting process, but any illiterate Central-American gang-banger who jumps the southern fence is welcome.
• $5 billion for border security is too expensive, but $1.5 trillion for “free” health care for illegals is not.
• If you cheat to get into college you go to prison, but if you cheat to get into the country you go to college for free.
• Politicians who say that the President is not above the law put illegal immigrants and themselves above the law.
• People who say there is no such thing as gender are demanding a female President.
• Illegals don’t pay taxes, but they get tax refunds.
• We see other countries going Socialist and collapsing, and it seems like a great plan to us.
• Voter suppression is bad, but not allowing the President to be on the ballot is good.
• Fourth-of-July parades are bad, but parades of women dressed as vaginas are good.
• Some people are held responsible for things that happened before they were born, and other people are not held responsible for what they are doing right now.
• Criminals are catch-and-released to hurt more people, but stopping them is bad because it's a violation of THEIR rights.
* And pointing out all this hypocrisy somehow makes us "racists."
If you are tired of living in the Left’s dystopian nightmare, share or copy and paste!
