Welcome. My name is Elaine Beachy, author of Biff and Becka’s Springtime Escapades. I’m so happy to have you as a visitor to my blog about my new book. This project is very special to me, and I hope to share some of that excitement with you here.
"Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy-laden and overburdened, and I will cause you to rest. [I will ease and relieve and refresh your souls.]Take My yoke upon you and learn of Me, for I am gentle (meek) and humble (lowly) in heart, and you will find rest (relief and ease and […]
I am praying in faith every time I ask God for something, and then thank Him for granting my request! I continue to ask with thanksgiving, standing on the Word of God—His promises of healing, provision, restored relationships, etc. See it as done through the eye of faith. Imagine it done, and praise and […]
We lived on Yorkshire Lane in Manassas, VA, and the year was 1991. One day I went to Yorkshire Market to get some groceries, and as I exited my car, I noticed a father and son near the entrance of the store. I was appalled as I saw (and heard) the father hit his son […]
It is amazing to me that in one hand I can hold such a weighty document as the Constitution of the United States -- not hundreds or even thousands of pages, as some documents of law today.

“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning” (James 1:17). God is so very good; He can’t be any other way. Some have erroneously attributed sickness, disease, tragedy, storms, trouble, death, to God, saying that […]
Few things are more painful to the human heart than strained or severed relationships. Because we love deeply, we can also hurt deeply, and it is especially so in a Christian family unit. I recently read two books that have powerfully changed my prayer life and my view of people: The Grace Outpouring by Roy […]
Radio and TV stations are filled with so many voices that clamor for our attention. Riots, terrorism, sex trafficking, drug trade, political intrigue, snarky behavior, betrayal, obstruction of truth, violence, and injustice, threaten to overwhelm our nation and the world. Satan's gripping tentacles of moral decay seem to have made inroads everywhere -- in the […]
Night and day among the tombs and on the mountainsides, the tormented man shrieked and screamed and cut himself with stones. (Thought: stones can represent the Law.) Jesus came and gave him grace. "Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!" Jesus commanded of the unclean spirit residing in the pitiful man who made his […]
