The Love Affair that Changed Our Marriage

07/23/2018

I’ve actually never confessed this to my husband. I was so concerned that he would have an affair- that I contrived to have one myself! It all started many years ago... Several of my friends found out that their husbands were having affairs. My heart broke as I saw each family devastated. I got paranoid about my own husband. Paranoia consumed me until finall[...]

The Honeymoon Life

05/18/2017

We live on a farm and have weddings in our barn, every weekend! Marriage, love, weddings and honeymoon conversations are our life! True love on a wedding day is breathtaking, but what's more breathtaking-is true love after babies, sleepless nights and hard days turned into years. Many couples struggle to keep their marriage aflame. Many wives tell me they[...]

As You Go this Christmas

12/16/2015

The call came at the worst time. I was driving home in terrible traffic, it’d been a crazy day. I couldn't wait to get home. My friend on the phone said, “Sharon, I need you to come to the hospital! Dad had a stroke, he’s dying. Come fast.” I got off the phone and groaned, Lord, I’m too tired... I prayed… His blood pressure was almost gone. His heart rate faint. [...]

Coveting Another Husband

09/30/2015

Oh my...Yep, when this temptation comes, and it WILL, DON’T ENTERTAIN the thought even for a second! Every grueling week, my friend would share how absolutely easy her life was. Every evening when her husband came home from work he helped with dinner, dishes, gave the kids baths and PUT THEM TO BED! He even mowed the grass, trimmed the bushes on the weekends an[...]

Marriage’s Greatest Enemy

09/22/2015

She could hardly stop crying long enough to get a sentence out. “Sharon, I loved him so much (sob). I can’t believe he left the kids and me. What am I going to do?” I gave her tissues, looked directly into her swollen eyes and said, “I know what you’re going to do! You’re not going to give up! You can’t!” He’s your first love, the father of your babies and you [...]

A Wrecked Marriage–Saved Over Lunch

06/28/2015

If you're joining me from P31 Devotions today, welcome! “I can’t STAND my husband. I’ve had enough. It’s over. I’m so finished with this marriage, Sharon. I’m DONE… DONE!” She screamed as I held the phone away from my ear. She started sobbing. I waited. I could hear her kids fighting in the background and a baby screaming. She said, “Sharon, can the[...]

Marriage is Like Farming- It Must be Cultivated

06/18/2015

The grain bag was almost empty, so I reached deeply into the dark bag to get a scoop for my chickens… Suddenly something scurried up my arm sleeve! You would have thought an anaconda was in my shirt the way I jumped and screamed! Within 10 seconds a mouse jumped right out of the top of my shirt! I’m surprised we didn't both roll over and die right there! People[...]

A Season to Work

05/15/2015

When we were raising our five daughters, we worked hard every day. I thought for sure the next season of life would be easier. You know... -less work. I've come to realize that as long as I have life in this body, it will be a season to work. We have a friend on the farm helping today (Luciano) who just said, "If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up t[...]

40 Day No Complaining Fast

02/24/2015

My 40 day fast ended abruptly before my head hit the pillow, on the first day! Yep, my plan was to… fast from complaining. I was pretty excited over the possibility of reigning all those negative thoughts… then I woke up on the first morning- and our pipes had frozen! I stood with my blow dryer, blowing hot air on to pipes while Dale sawed huge holes out of our dr[...]

This year, make Valentine's Day memorable for your entire family without breaking the bank! There's no need to venture out to a restaurant and subject yourself to the movie theater, when you can make it even more special at home... This past week Dale and I watched an amazing movie that I want to share with you. It's a love story. Quo Vadis is a ro[...]

Keep it Shut

01/08/2015

Sunday morning fights. Ugh… Kids fighting, shoes missing, and Dale and I who are usually in crazy love- nearly ready for separation before we walk inside the church on Sunday morning. Yikes! This past Sunday wasn’t a lot different. I wanted to go in late and leave early so as not to touch any of the “sick” folks carrying that horrible flu bug. Yeah it’s the [...]

Gingerbread Legacies

12/18/2014

One of my favorite Christmas decorations is our permanent gingerbread ornaments with family names on them. This year, the Lord has graciously added to us three grandchildren and a son in law. I love these ornaments because each one tells a story. I love to reflect on memories of the ones who have passed into their eternal home. Great Grandma Rowley didn't h[...]

Rachael's baby shower was this past weekend! Her baby is due November 4. It's a boy! They haven't announced his first name yet. Hence his last name "Curry" strung at top of cake between two branches. Organic gluten free cake. Made with all natural dyes. I curled organic chocolate to make trees on the cake. Wilton tip 233 piped frosting to look like grass for th[...]
