Nancy shares one of her favorite Bible verses and a yummy recipe.

Psalm 27:13: I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord In the land of the living. (NKJV)

A Yummy Recipe

The following recipe is my own! I changed another very basic recipe into this. It’s one of my husband’s favorite dishes.

Smoked Turkey Taco Soup

Ingredients:

Turkey Smoked Sausage (12 ounces)

8 cups chicken broth

1 can black beans (washed and drained)

1 pinto beans (drained)

1 can dark red kidney beans (drained)

1 large can Southwestern/Fiesta corn (drained)

2 Tablespoons taco seasoning (see recipe below)

Directions:

Cut sausage into slices. Then add all ingredients to a large pot. Simmer for 30 minutes. Add shredded sharp cheddar cheese on top and serve with tortilla chips if desired.

Taco Seasoning

*I make four times this much and keep it in my pantry. It’s great for tacos, pork chops, steak, etc.

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon chili powder

¼ teaspoon garlic powder

¼ teaspoon onion powder

¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (reduce if you want soup to be milder)

¼ teaspoon dried oregano

½ teaspoon paprika

1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon black pepper

Mix together and store in an airtight container.

Looking Out the Window: Memories on the Heart

Several weeks ago my husband, Rick, and I ate at a restaurant we frequent fairly regularly. The cute, young waitress who usually waits on us took our orders for burgers and fries. I’ll call her Mandy. As usual Mandy’s smile and bubbly personality brightened our day. We giggled and confessed to her that we shouldn’t eat the fries, but we were going to do it just this once. She joked. “Okay, you’re being bad today.” Not long after we got our food a couple came in and sat in the booth behind us. Mandy walked up to the table with her big grin. “Hi, how are you?” she asked. The man, who had salt and pepper colored hair and a pudgy face, spoke in a harsh tone, “I want the steak.” “Sure, which one would you like?” Mandy asked. “I don’t want you to put it in the microwave. That will make it tough. Do you understand?” Mandy’s lips turned down. “Yes sir, which one do you want to order?” “I want it medium rare. I don’t want blood oozing out of it. I want it cooked right.” “Yes sir, which steak di

I’m happy to share with you a Bible verse and a recipe, and tell you about my newest book! One of my favorite Bible verses is Romans 10:9. “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” I love this verse because it distills down the message of Christianity to its simplest elements. So often people add to the gospel, but it really all comes down to our belief in Jesus’ saving work on the cross. This verse tends to make its way into my writing. It’s in my latest novel, Moonlight and Mystery, when the heroine, Beth attends a carnival at a
