and Purposeful Prose
Faith and patience go hand in hand. It takes time for things to grow. Thankfully God doesn't leave us unattended. He remains our gardener and He is with us always. Those who believe in Jesus as their Master Gardner recieve the Holy Spirit who helps us to understand Scripture, comforts us, teaches us and gives [...]
The best step that I've taken in these last couple of months was when I dropped my Sunday post. Shortly after this I decided I wouldn't read blogs on weekends as well. This has been really good for me. It's given me a chance to shut out all distractions and simply listen. One weekend I [...]
Continued from The Path... The beginning of this story starts HERE. Andrew was a lot like mushrooms after a bad rain. He just kept popping up. I never complained about this either. Since he worked at the other end of the mall, he’d drop by on his lunch breaks. So for the next month I [...]
As I came in from my walk today I said to Andrew, "I feel as if I'm about to turn over a new leaf. But I have to be careful to turn it over slowly." He says to me, "Uh huh, or else you'll fall off your lilly pad." That's about right. Then he added, [...]
Since Andrew and I will be celebrating 25 years married this month, this seems the perfect time to share some of our "How Andrew Met Tina" story, as well as, the events that lead up to my journey of faith. However, first there's a bit of a planting backstory. Before I met Andrew I was [...]

To write or not to write, that is the question. Should I start the week off with something in my drafts, some poetry, or should I write about my week? Okay, let's start with where I am. That's a good place to start, right? For the most part April was a better than normal month [...]
I’m proud to say that Thousand Foot Krutch (TFK) is a Canadian Christian rock/ hard rock band. We’ll keep these boys! They’re top notch. Trevor McNevan is a rocker who likes to mix things up. TFK can be both very raucous, but also soft. Sometimes they even throw some rap in there. Personally I love [...]
Tulip Tree "Time-lapse" The Tulip Tree is problaby more commonly known as the Saucer Magnolia, but Tulip Tree fit better into my trio of "T" words. Plus, my mother-in-law always refers to it as such, so I like it. This was a really good exercise in patience! These guys take their time. Not a whole [...]
