We are in a state that has started to open up. After two weeks of having some businesses open, the really important places like nail salons, hair dressers and barber shops, among others, have opened. Women who needed their hair colored, lips waxed, hair cut and nails...

Remember, our hope needs to be in GOD…who He is and the certainty of HIs promises. We need to hope in Him for the present as well as the future. As we know more of who He is as revealed in His Word, we know facts about him. We learn many of His promises as we...

HOW MUCH HAVE YOU BEEN FORGIVEN?…

I’ve been thinking about a character in the Bible this weekend who wasn’t named. She joins a host of characters, many of them women, who had a powerful impact on those on history. While it’s true little was actually known about them apart from one,...

WHAT IS 1 THING TO REMEMBER WHEN VISITING THE SICK OR HOMEBOUND?…

by Martha Brady | May 6, 2020 | AGING, BIBLE MEMORY, GOD'S PROMISES, NOTES FOR CARE GIVERS

When you stop to visit a sick or homebound person, there is one very important thing to remember. Is it what makes you feel good? What makes their family member happy? NO! You are there to serve the person you are visiting. To a lesser degree, you may be...

WHAT IS YOUR NAME?…

This year (2020) every member of our church was given the book Everyday Prayers by Scotty Smith, either in book form or online. It was part of an encouragement for all of us to pray more this year. Who knew what challenges we would have so early in the year? Honestly,...

Welcome to a Place of Hope

photo: Gayle Sankey Clegg

Hi! Welcome

I’m Martha. I’m so glad you came to visit. This is a place for women who are scared, overwhelmed, or brokenhearted. One thing we can find together is hope. The Biblical kind that is confident expectation in the person and promises of GOD!

In 2015, my husband had a stroke which changed our lives on many levels. I waited the required year after to see what the final outcome of his recovery would be, and when the time was up, I experienced a very dark time despite the fact that he had improved considerably.

I began seeking out how to find hope for a person who is scared, overwhelmed and brokenhearted. Because I ran the gamut of all those feelings. Sometimes I still do.

We all need the encouragement of GOD’s Word to remind us of who GOD is, what His promises are and how certain our hope is in Him! It is not because of how strong our faith is but because of who the One is in whom we place it!

But let me back up a bit and tell you a little about myself. I am a wife of just over 50 years to a now retired pastor, a mom of 3 daughters who are grown and married with 7 grands, and an RN.

We have lived in a variety of places in our years of ministry including Jamaica, FL, TX, IL and now AL near one of our daughters.

I’ve been blogging since 2010. This summer, I changed the name of my blog from GrittyGrace.com to MarthaGrimmBrady.com.

Come join us as we find hope together in Christ!
