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[...]

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 [...]

Susanna Wesley’s Prayer Apron- Powerful Life Story

07/05/2013

Hidden behind the door of many homes is the reality of hardship. Secret things happen that few want the world to know. Yet, from some people (presently and historically) we are given the inside story, whether they want it told or not. A devastated home isn’t always apparent on first impression, is it? Susanna Wesley was married to a preacher. They had 10 chi[...]

A Legacy of Faith

04/17/2013

This week Proverbs 31 Ministries is focusing on women who have left a faith legacy in our lives. As you read about a woman who has inspired me, think about who has left a legacy in your life and whether you are leaving a faith legacy behind by the way you live. The words we speak and the way we live can alter another person’s life for eternity. I’ll never fo[...]

The Good Wife Recipe

01/01/2013

Being a good wife is a lot like being a good cook. Any cook using the same recipe and instructions can produce a dish that tastes entirely different from another. Why is this? Well, attention to detail distinguishes a great cook from an average one. Take fried apples for example… All that you need are apples, sugar, butter and cinnamon. But, not every c[...]

Our Perfect Weekend in New York City

10/23/2012

Dale was appalled when he saw my pile of stuff stacked high by the front door for our trip to NYC. A five gallon stock pot filled with all the trimmings to make chicken & dumplings, a large rice maker (rice included), a trifle dish (with all ingredients in separate bags ready for assembly), homemade coffee cake, batch of flourless peanut butter cookies, banana[...]

The Farm Wedding/Reception-Preparations Commenced this Past Weekend

10/09/2012

Our 4th lovely daughter Rachael has never asked for much. She’s always been a hard worker, had a job in high school to help buy the things she wanted and has held jobs in-between college semesters. So, when she came to me and asked this vast question I didn’t know how to respond. “Mom, what’s the budget for my wedding?” I wanted to be able to say, [...]

Jonathan Proposed to Our Daughter, Rachael, in the Barn Saturday night

09/11/2012

From the time Dale and I knew we were pregnant with each of our five daughters, we started praying for their spouses. This past Saturday night, our fourth daughter Rachael was engaged to the man of her dreams and the one we had prayed for from the time we conceived her. Just a few months before we met him for the first time, I had taken a class on the [...]

http://sharonglasgow.com/2012/08/a-love-story-fairy-tales-do-come-true-part-1-of-3/ As he kissed her goodbye, she knew in her heart this would be the last, for she was in search of the dreams of her youth. She left on her journey to the school far away. Once there, she knew what she had to do. Since she was a child, when she dreamt of her prince charming, he was[...]

A Love Story: Fairy Tales Do Come True – Part 1 of 3

08/28/2012

Once upon a time, many years ago, there lived a young man who knelt to the ground every morning and prayed to the Lord for his bride-to-be. He asked Him to make her spirit strong, keep her pure, and to prepare her for the day he would finally meet her. One day, as the young man was working at his place of employment, his spirit quickened within him. As she spok[...]

Our Last Chick Flew the Coop

08/20/2012

Our last baby chick flew the coop this past weekend. Dale and I haven't been without one of our girls at home for more than 2 days in almost 30 years. We always wanted them with us. We never took a trip without them. Even if we went out to eat, we went together. We were one. I loved making hot breakfasts, talking in the kitchen, and tucking them in at the end o[...]

Labor, Delivery and The Travel Trailer – Ellie’s Birthday

08/11/2012

It was still dark outside, and intense labor pains had started. I didn’t have anywhere to escape to enjoy my pain alone. Our family was still sleeping in a small travel trailer. There was only one full size bed, and Rachael (4 years old) was sleeping between Dale and me. Hannah (age 6) was sleeping in the shower stall. Jennifer (10) was on the seat bench at the [...]

My Preacher Man

08/02/2012

Someone was knocking loudly at my front door. I opened it and a man that I had never seen before stood staring at me. Solemnly he said, “Is the preacher man home?” I smiled and confidently said, “I’m sorry, no preacher lives here.” He insisted that one did live here. Then he gave me the story. He told me that he had been to our house a year ago looking for a ma[...]
