True Commitment


I was beginning to wonder if they would arrive.

They'd been here, at the same time, every other year. 

The days came and went with no sign of those who had shown, even demonstrated their true commitment to each other.

Faithfully he protected her.

Lovingly she bore and raised their children. He helped. Standing by her side and insuring the children behaved.

The couple even find time for each other allowing nothing but their commitment in their focus.

She trusts him.

He trusts her.

Without trust....there is no commitment.

Who were these incredibly, wonderful examples of total commitment?





Honey, I need to talk to you. 



 Just a minute. I need to give the kids a project to do.




No, No my love. Come to me. Kiss me. The kids are fine. 


Not in front of the kids.

Yes. Kiss me. The kids will know we love each other..

But, we'll scar their little minds....oh, forget it.  (smooching)



Mom!

Billy, is this an emergency? Your Father and I were having a very important discussion. 














I heard something. Quick hide the kids. You, too. I don't want to lose you.


Be careful, honey.
..


All right children. Follow me. You know the drill. Billy, don't dawdle.  










I think we're safe now. It was just a stupid human. Keep the children moving.





Sigh, good thing we're a family that sticks together.










Are we blessed to be shown through God's creation just what God expects from us?

Fabulous Friday Feature-Candace Calvert

Today we welcome author:  Candace Calvert To win a copy of Candace's new release: By Your Side Scroll to the end of the post  to see how to get your copy. Mary Vee here. One of my absolute favorite classes at ACFW this last year was the medical fiction class. That wasn't the real title, I can't remember what snazzy name the instructors gave it--BUT three stellar medical professionals, who are also Christian Fiction writers, presented great information then opened the time for questions. We students asked them all kinds of questions like what kind of poison would kill a ..., and tons of other questions. It was sooooo much fun, and informative.     I asked Candace, who was one of those fabulous teachers, to join us and share  how God has led her on her writing journey. Here is what she said: God Gave Me a Wake-up Fall The story won’t surprise folks who hav...

One many of us can relate to. Her post below shows her strength and positive spirit. I'm so happy Andrea is visiting with us today. Pull up a chair, grab your coffee and come chat with Andrea. I asked Andrea to tell us how God led her on her writing journey. Here is what she said:  Romance Done Write I didn’t read much while growing up in my family’s suburban Milwaukee, Wisconsin home. I read what I was assigned for school, along with an occasional children’s novel like Pippi Longstocking and Little House in the Big Woods .  When I was in fourth grade, I wrote my first novel, Little Miss Mouse . My mother kept it all these years and it’s now in my possession. I laugh when I read those ten handwritten pages. At the tim...

Fabulous Friday Feature-Lorna Seilstad

Today we welcome author: Lorna Seilstad One commenter will win a copy of Lorna's book:  As Love Blooms Scroll down to see how. Mary here. I have quickly learned what an amiable person Lorna is. After only a few emails we've become great friends and found similar things to talk about. You'll see this same spirit in her post below. I asked Lorna to tell us how God led her on her writing journey. Here is what she said:  Excuses! Excuses! Moses and I have a lot in common. Oh, I haven’t led any Egyptians out of bondage, but I have looked at the path God laid out for me and rattled off excuses that would rival those of the great spiritual leader himself. You’re probably familiar with the story. God gets Moses’ attention with a burning bush, and then when He begins to disclose his plans for Moses’ future, the excuses start. ( My paraphrase of the story:) “Moses, I am sending you to Pharaoh to bring my people ou...
