Well Done, Good and Faithful Servant

September 13, 2021September 15, 2021 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 2 Comments

I almost didn’t go. After all, why waste the gas? Besides....I’m sick of crying. Who goes to a cemetery on Labor Day, for goodness sake? I’ll admit I was feeling down. I’ve lost some good friends lately. I was alone at home on a family weekend and life seemed...well, unfair. I made myself go. It’s … Continue reading Well Done, Good and Faithful Servant

Get out of the Graveyard!

August 4, 2021August 5, 2021 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 2 Comments

God had me in mind when I stumbled onto the message. Pastor talked about getting stuck in our painful places of grief, regret, disappointment, hurt, rejection, and loss. He said God did not create us to get stuck.  -Raise your hand if you’ve ever been a prisoner to pain. (My hand is up.)  Let me … Continue reading Get out of the Graveyard!

Christmas for Commoners

December 14, 2019December 14, 2019 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ Leave a comment

You wouldn’t want to sit next to them on the bus. Smelly. Dirt on their hands. Raggedy clothes. Shepherds were not popular in Bible times. They lived in the fields. They slept on the ground and smelled like their sheep. -Hardly A position to be honored. And yet.... God in all His glory sent them … Continue reading Christmas for Commoners

Identity Crisis: Solved

November 16, 2018November 16, 2018 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 6 Comments

Who am I? I’m a kid from the 60s and a teen from the 70s.  I remember a lot of mumbo-jumbo talk in those days about having an “identity crisis” and “finding yourself.” Welp, folks, at 62 I’m happy to announce: I’ve  found myself!  Guess who I am?   I’m God’s kid!  I know you might … Continue reading Identity Crisis: Solved

The (not so) Secret Life of the Type A Lady

November 2, 2018 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 4 Comments

Here’s a little Type A Tale to help you know more about this crazy cracked pot: I had to stop at Dollar General to get dog food. After spending two days cleaning closets at my mom’s house,  I hadn’t showered or changed clothes. Why bother? I’d slept on the floor and kept working. I walked … Continue reading The (not so) Secret Life of the Type A Lady

Make / UP – A beauty which doesn’t fade

April 15, 2018April 15, 2018 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 11 Comments

The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.- 1 Samuel 16:7 I stumbled across this photo of me. This little blast from the past reminded me of a time I wore make-up...exactly 1000 years ago. I was a young … Continue reading Make / UP – A beauty which doesn’t fade

Monday Moods: Stop Comparing

March 26, 2018June 21, 2018 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ Leave a comment

Please stop comparing yourself to others. I made you who you are for a reason. Discover your own, unique, high and holy mission. This does not have to be earth-shattering.  It just has to be authentic. — Love, Jesus
