Grace and Chocolate
Ok, so I’ve been thinking of starting a blog for some time,
mostly waiting on divine, brilliant inspiration…LOL. Anyway, here goes. I am a wife,
a mom, a cook, a friend, a daughter, an animal lover, an avid reader, a
conservative and most importantly, a Christian. It’s all about Jesus, people.
So from time to time I may have some things to say, about God, politics, food,
family, books, etc. Maybe someone will be interested, maybe not, but here goes…
I’m calling this thing Grace and Chocolate because they are
two things that every woman needs, at least several times a day. Do I hear an
amen?
If you know me, you know
I love to cook. Watching someone enjoy something I have made with care and love
gives me deep satisfaction. I’ll be sharing recipes quite often, I’m sure. Right
now I’m completely obsessed with The Pioneer Woman. I want her life and her
basset hounds! Here’s the link to her blog –
The most important thing to know about me is that I love Jesus
Christ, who died for me, a sinner of the
worst kind. A couple of years ago I said a simple prayer, asking for a
closer relationship with God and received an immediate answer and so the
journey began. At least three things I know for sure – God is good ALL THE
TIME, Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Light, and we must love one another
as he has loved us. Easier said than done, obviously, since we are all flawed but all things are possible for
God! I believe this with all of my being. That being said, I would like to recommend
the book that started me on this path, this closer walk…”Sometimes He Whispers,
Sometimes He Roars: Learning to Hear the Voice of God” by my sweet friend
Marilynn Chadwick. Here’s the link to her website -
It’s awesome – revolutionized my prayer life. I highly
recommend it! In these difficult times faith is so important. It’s the only
thing we can really count on in this crazy world!
