I'm one sassy southern Mama who loves Jesus and isn't afraid to shout it. My passions are Jesus, my husband, my kids, and chocolate. I'm a teacher turned Christian writer. Ask me why I love Jesus and be prepared to sit a spell.
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and soul, but don't forget to love your neighbor as yourself. I am a firm believer that we can change the world one person at a time - by being Christ with the skin on to those who are in need.
Are you a sheep or a goat?
Oh Carol! I LOVE this post. God is so amazing in how He takes our everyday actions and gives us an opportunity to serve Him. You are so amazing in how you pay attention…and then tell us about them! I can hardly wait for all those calls I know I’ll get today!
Bless you!

I love this story. I wonder what He is going to tell you to do next 😉
SUPER CAROL! I Love this post!
Bringing my comment here from

Carol…you bless me so much with your creative writing and ideas but more by your obedience to the still voice of God! Such control! Such direction! Such wisdom! Now I pray that the blessing of those additional prayers completes your book proposal with the publishing of your SHEEP TO THE RIGHT-
I mean book…of your heart’s desire!
For this very reason, I don’t have a phone!
(or I use the answering machine to screen)
I’m not good at saying “no” and know my limits. I would not ever have thought that I was blowing a chance to witness! Ingenius!
I am truly blessed! Be blessed beyond how you keep blessing me! Thank you for such inspiration!
Thanks for your story, Carol. One of my greatest delights in God is how He is always surprising me. I never know what He is going to ask me to do next! It makes for some “animated” discussions, ala “You want me to do WHAT?!?”. But invariably I find a pearl, small or large, hidden in the hard shell of obedience. I’m glad you took the high road and that you shared with us your doubts!
May you feel His grace today,

Have I told you how cool I think you are? Seriously, you inspire me every time I come and read what you have to say. I will be praying for you and the proposal but I know that God has something big in store for you. Keep me posted.
Have a fun holiday….
