Fear Not! He is the- Glorious Impossible

November 30, 2014 / Cindy Barclay / "Treasure Trove" Blog Roll

Nothing is impossible with God! IF God is God – why do people struggle with a virgin birth, angelic visitors, a star guiding wise men?  If God is God- then everything is possible. God- King of all Kings, Creator, Savior, Redeemer- stepped into an impossible situation- s His creation chose to break the rule.  Mankind  […]

Jingle, Jangle, Ring-a-ding-ding! Ring-a-ding-dang!  The Salvation Army Bell Ringer was merrily ringing with all his might.  “Mommy, I need money!

Plunkity plunk!  “Mer-ry Christ-mas!” Bethany […]

[panel style=”default” title=”About Cindy” text_align=”left”]Jeff & Cindy

Hi, I’m Cindy- 35 years of “livin” with my prince charming, Jeff. I’m a home maker, not a house wife, parent of 7, memory maker, mama bear, Nana to 11 & counting, Pastor’s wife and I’m daily amazed by the depths of God’s love.

I love reading, home schooling, encouraging others, playing the piano, worshiping, dating my husband, and planning parties and retreats for our clan. Someday, I really want a horse and learn to play the cello and viola.
