Hello table family! I hope you all are well. I pray Father’s day was a blessing for you. We celebrated last Sunday (June 14) because my husband had major surgery on the eighteenth so we knew he wouldn’t be up to a cook-out or anything else on Father’s day.
I looked up this verse today and felt like it was quite powerful in our world’s circumstances right now…
James 5:16 “Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another that you may be healed, the prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.” (ESV)
This verse advises us to confess to a fellow human being when we have done wrong by them and ask for forgiveness. In addition to that, pray for them. Pray for others. When we pray a righteous prayer, this is to say a prayer that is pure in heart, it is powerful! Doesn’t our world today need prayer? Don’t we all individually need prayer? Then pray! It is powerful.
This is Me
Hi, I’m Cyndi! I am a wife to a wonderful God-fearing man for almost twenty years. I am a mom to an ambitious comedic eighteen-year-old son and a spirited fun-loving sixteen-year-old daughter. I love to cook, create anything I can think of to make, talk and visit with friends and even strangers, and of course I love to write. Along with the writing, I love to read what other people write as well. I would love to live in the south somewhere but for now I live more in the suburbs of a town in Michigan. Oh yeah… and I’m almost blind. This means that I have to do things a little differently. It takes a little more time and a little more patience to get things done, but they get done. I was told of my eye disease when I was nine years old. At forty-four, they still cannot diagnose what I have for certain. However, I won’t sit still while they try and figure it out. Each day brings different challenges and some of the same as well. Navigating new territory is the most difficult thing for me to do, but I refuse to be held back and take the chance on missing out on an exciting new adventure. My bucket list holds adventures like parasailing, visiting Ireland, having at least one book published, and I’m sure there are more that I haven’t listed yet. Painting word pictures is my therapy and sanctuary. I use life as my brushes and paint. Lite me a candle, put on the spa music and a-writing I will go. Come on this journey with me, I hope you can find some new colors you like.

Yes, amen! Continuing to pray for your husband too, and you as you take care of him.
Hi Tonya! It’s so good to hear from you! Thank you so much for your prayers. I have felt everyone’s prayers and I must say, I love being bathed in prayer. I hope your family is doing well. Hope to see you again soon 🙂
Cyndi: I finally got a copy of 2020 Writers Market. From what I recall, you are looking for a magazine or book publisher that wants Christian short stories. Correct?
Hi Joy! I know we already talked but I didn’t want to leave your comment open with no response. I so appreciate all you have done my sweet sister in Christ! We’ll talk again soon 🙂
