here’s your sign

February 8, 2019February 22, 2020 Ellen Lebsock

Grace and peace on this funny Friday morning Dear Hearts. ❤ I wonder...do you think God has a sense of humor? O, I'm fairly certain He does. Take the Facebook fiasco that's been going on in my computers for the past couple of weeks. I've been messing with my 'News Feed' off and on for… Continue reading here’s your sign

February 6, 2019June 30, 2019 Ellen Lebsock

It's been such a long, long time since I've actually written a post! I mean a real, written post. A blog post. For most of the past year my writing has been of the Facebook sort.

pump up your praise

February 6, 2019February 22, 2020 Ellen Lebsock

It's something we've done at every home God has provided for us since 1977. It's something we've done for family and friends, churches and businesses. It's something God always honors.

effective prayer

key #1 to Effective Prayer

February 1, 2019February 20, 2020 Ellen Lebsock

CHANGE YOUR MINDSET Praying effectively means you must change your mindset. Negativity stops the blessings of Heaven in your life.

effective prayer

anxiety is

November 6, 2018 Ellen Lebsock

Anxiety is a meteor storm of "what If's" Effective prayer eliminates the "yeah, but's" and "what if's" that torment the life of a Child of God.  Our Abba, Father invites us to bring ALL of them to Him in prayer. Philippians 4: 4-7 Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice.   Let all… Continue reading anxiety is

it’s fun again!

November 4, 2018November 4, 2018 Ellen Lebsock

A day to remember. After months of wrestling with the settings and situations on the Blog where I've written  our story since 2012 I am finally, at long last, satisfied with what's happening. New Beginnings can be a huge blessing! In actuality nanaellen.com was first uploaded in November of 1996 but there have been so… Continue reading it’s fun again!
