Grateful I Need Not Fear: Take My Fears- A Poem
Take My Fears A Poem by Joy Aletheia Stevens ~ Take my fears, Blown away from here, Like so many leaves, Caught up in the breeze. ~ My worries for naught, In Your hand they are caught, Flown away before Your grace, The beauty of Your face. ~ What I have I to dread? All […]
Grateful for Weakness and Foolishness
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 2 Corinthians 12:9 There are times I’ll cling to this verse. I can so often feel so […]

What was going on? It took me a few minutes to remember. Oh right! The funeral. Not long ago there was a […]

Lessons From a Rotten Tooth
I’ve had a toothache lately. It has completely laid me out for quite awhile, hence the lack of posts. Actually it hasn’t really been the tooth that has bothered me the most, but other symptoms that have come with it: headaches, earaches, nausea, and just flat out feeling sick. Yeah, that’s right, my tooth is probably infected. This particular […]
