I am a licensed minister, author, and homeschool mom. I am also totally blind. This blog is a mixed bag of my responses to all of that and more.

A Spiritual Scaffold

Featured S. J. WellsLeave a comment

Many times we read our Bible in a hurry. Then, we get busy through the day and forget to meditate on it. Later, we wonder why we did not hear any new truths that day or why we feel so empty.

A Long Awaited Update

Featured S. J. WellsLeave a comment

I'm sitting at my kitchen table, and the window in here is open. I'm listening to the rain and wondering why March isn't going out like a lamb. It came in like a lion and appears to be going out the same way. Reminds me of a song I once heard that said, "I didn't… Continue reading A Long Awaited Update
