It’s All About Perspective

Beth Ann Chiles/ Devotional, Inspiration, Life stories/ 13 Comments/ 178

“Are you spoiled?” she asked.  The context was the fact that I got to board the airplane before she did—I had “Sky” on my ticket and she had Zone 3.  I laughed it off and denied it but it has stuck with me for a Continue reading →

Advent Brings Peace

Beth Ann Chiles/ Devotional/ 11 Comments/ 104

Second week of Advent brings Peace. Something that our weary world needs so desperately today. What does peace mean to you? For me peace is that feeling that I feel inside when all is right with my little world. It is the feeling of calm Continue reading →

Advent Brings Hope

Beth Ann Chiles/ Devotional/ 4 Comments/ 94

It’s the first week of Advent and one that brings HOPE. This year has been so challenging. It has been chaotic and unsettling. It has been a time of separation and anxiety. It has tested our faith and our patience. It has also been a Continue reading →

Second Chances Again

Beth Ann Chiles/ Devotional/ 9 Comments/ 39

A repost of an old post because it reminds me that second chances are good things. One of my very favorite songs  is “When It’s All Been Said and Done” as performed by Robin Mark. In fact right now I have a song headache because Continue reading →

Follow the Sun

Beth Ann Chiles/ Devotional, Writing/ 10 Comments/ 32
