On the Porch
Onisha Ellis
Two weeks ago one of our friends took a terrible fall down a slope and hit his h head. Not a great thing for someone 70+ plus years. Along with their friends, my prayers were fervent for his recovery. He suffered severe damage to his neck and had been breathtakingly close to paralysis. In my prayers, I thanked God for His protection and healing of my friend, then my thoughts moved on.
In my morning quiet time I read Psalm 89:15. I decided that my praises to God need to be as fervent as my prayers of petition!

After my retirement, I decided to re-learn the canning and preserving skills I learned from my mother but hadn’t practiced for twenty years. I titled the blog Old Things R New to chronicle my experience. Since then I have been blessed to have six other bloggers join me, DiVoran Lites, Bill Lites, Judy Wills, Louise Gibson, Janet Perez Eckles and Melody Hendrix
In addition to blogging, I work as the publicist/marketer/ amateur editor and general “mom Friday” for my author daughter, Rebekah Lyn. I also manage her website, Rebekah Lyn Books where we frequently host the best in up and coming authors.
