A Short Bio About Me

    Hi and welcome! I use the name MaryFrancis when writing. Mary was my dad's mother's name and Francis was my mom's dad's name. I'm the youngest of seven. Five of those children are to the same parents. One sister is a stepsister, and the other sister is a half-sister. One of my full sister's went home to be with the Lord on September 21, 2010. I am a graduate of a Bible College and while there I had a major in both Bible and El. Ed. It was a wonderful experience, and I remain grateful to the Lord for directing my steps to attend there and still ask Him what do you want me to do with the information I learned while there? He's still hearing and answering :) I don't have a specific theme in mind to write on this blog. At this point, I'll just to share what the Lord has put on my heart to put out to people on any given day.

    My life verse: But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Hebrews 11:6

          My sister's birthday was March 28. I'm sure there was a great celebration in heaven. Josh's mom was probably my closest sister. I thought happy thoughts about her. Wistful thoughts, would love to talk with her but overall realizing how blessed I was to have such a great sister. Josh...

          Battle for the soul of a Person

          Been awhile since I wrote. Early March was not a good time. Josh went into a 1/2 way house which he despises. No rules for Josh! Still looking for the easy way out ( from drugs/alcohol) and does not have the resolve or desire to work at his life. Only...

          Prayer Answered God's Way

          At the time walking with Josh through this difficult path I begin to see growth and maturity emerge. As his dear mother had good intentions by shielding him from life all his life, he never experienced the thrill of victory that for most humans comes from the pile of failures...

          Time Out

          Time in mental facilities, rehab houses, living in the car, and rental rooms. Josh is on a course of three steps forward and two steps backwards. Needing direction about life, his mom is dead, his Dad has been useless all his life. He is truly alone and terrified. I try...

          Healing Begins

          Pain is a part of life. I read Job and I see a man who lays out his pain in unvarnished simplicity. I do not hear bitterness in his words overall. He has his moments like we all do. But he comes off as a fellow human, someone at times...
