Life happens. . .

Man, oh man does life happen!  I'd like to say that it's happened and I've come through with grace and dignity - but it would be more appropriate to say that it has happened and we're still standing!  I'm so thankful for the truth of God's word and how it fits and covers every aspect of our lives.  I know what it means in Ephesians 6 when it says "and having done all, stand."  After all the battles and busyness, we can still stand - firm in Him!  I know this is short, but things are slowing down and life will return to some level of "normalcy" - at least that's what I get out of bed for everyday.  Smiles!

Closing out the year 2024

New Year's Eve. . . the end of a year that makes you reflect back on the last 365 days. Most of us are looking forward to the new year and some of us are looking back and wondering where it went! What happened to 2024?! What do we even have to show for it but some bumps and bruises? It's been a wild ride, ya'll!  But reflection is a good thing, right? Taking time to skim over the year and look for highlights and lowlights and facing the disappointments and celebrating the achievements - these are important things to do. So what were some of my wins and losses? What a great year! Celebrated 1 year of working for the church Traveled internationally with hubby several times Started year 2 of our ministry school Got a dog (a BIG dog) Graduated a kid from Bible School Started a kid at a private school (step of faith) What a tough year!

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. . .

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, I wrote a blog. Posts were few and far between at best. I was working 40+ hours a week at a job. There were 3 children at home with various activities and none were driving so taxiing was my side hustle (unpaid, grueling hours). The Hubs was working 50-60 hours a week pioneering a church and starting a side business. So much has changed since the last post, that I contemplated scrapping it all and starting fresh.  Or should I?   Always a challenge to get all my words out, I hesitate to even write this one. But I will provide a catch-up for history's sake... Kid #1 is graduated and trying to be a grown-up on his own in a different city.  College courses, which are mostly online because of the big 'C', working almost full time and a girlfriend keep him pretty busy, but not too busy to call his mama every few days.  Especially when the bank account is low.  Kid #2 is finishing up his last year of high school and living hi...

Let's see how this goes?

    I can't even describe all the many things that have happened since the last time I blogged.  Let's just say, there is never a dull moment around here! You know the saying about Texas weather? If you don't like it just wait a few minutes and it will change.  That's a pretty accurate description of what life has been like in the world of Davidson.  Across the board, our lives look completely different than they did just one year ago.  If you know me, I'd be happy to sit down and explain the details of how God has shown up time and time again to move things and work things out on our behalf.     Alive Church is thriving in New Waverly, in a God-given building that we could never have built on our own.  A true testament to the vision and heart of our founder, Bishop Jimmy Davidson.  We lost him in April of this year and that has changed the dynamics of both the ministry and our home.  Sis Jackie moved in with us and we are all in a...
