  • What Time I Am Afraid
    Friday, June 27th, 2014     Sherry Carter     4 Comments

    He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.  Psalm 91:1           When I was a young child I was terrified of electrical storms.

    I would have never guessed that 72 hours could change my life so dramatically.  This past weekend I went on a Women’s Walk to Emmaus.

I love to do needlework: knit, crochet, embroidery, cross stitch…I do it all. Tiny stitches on a needlework canvas form an intricate pattern and eventually reveal a beautiful picture.  Rows of stitches from a soft yarn result in a comfy, warm afghan… Read More
