My God Is…

We went a little quiet for a while during 2020. It seemed there wasn’t much to say that wasn’t already being said—or so we thought. Yet in the midst of our silence, my sweet mother began to record some of her journaled notes about Who God is.

Her original intent was to “pass these along” to her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. She teamed up with my dear brother, and the result was these wonderful, brief recordings, taken from notes in her personal journals. I now have been given permission to share these videos with you.

So starting today, twice a month, I’ll share a little “Wednesday Wisdom,” posting the next video in her series.

Of special note: my mother is eighty-nine years old (soon to be ninety); she is legally blind due to Macular Degeneration (hence, the large lettering on her notes for these videos and her inability to look directly into the camera, which she cannot see); and she loves to learn and share with others what God is teaching her.

It is with that introduction that I will step aside and share with you the first in Mom’s recorded lessons: “My God is Righteous.”

    I will be enjoying your mom’s “Wednesday Wisdom” 😊. I ALWAYS enjoyed when she taught the ladies SS class. I miss seeing her each Sunday and “catching up” before SS. I did get to talk to her recently when she called and asked for Shela Conrad’s address. She is such a “treasure”!!!! It was GREAT to see and hear her. Thank you ☺️
