Welcome, Come On In!
“Welcome, come on in — we’re so pleased YOU came!” Last Thursday, during our Life Group, one of our ladies was sharing some concerns she had — especially because of the news that her job had been discontinued. While we were encouraging her with God’s faithfulness and that this situation was no surprise to Him,…
Faith-Filled Words = Blessings
At my Life Group last night, we talked about how important it is to speak and believe what we are wanting in our lives. The fact is, our words have incredible power! When we speak faith-filled words, positive things just naturally come our way. But, many people just focus on negative things in life, and…
My Name is in His Hand
I’m a fan of Max Lucado’s writings — he’s so real and relevant, and what he says touches my heart so much. This one, I just had to pass on to my wonderful FB friends: “When I see a flock of sheep I see exactly that, a flock. A rabble of wool. I don’t see…
Time to Take the Love Test
It’s time to take a LOVE TEST — let’s see how we’re weathering this week! Are we patient and kind? Are we rejecting the temptation to be envious or being a bragger? Rather than being self-seeking, and prideful — are we rejoicing with someone else’s victories and celebrations? In spite of the opportunity, are we…
Before You Quit…..Try
When you feel like you have every reason in the world to quit, look around at those who have so much more reason than you do to quit…..but they don’t. They intend to soar, and people who soar, are those who refuse to sit back, sigh and wish things would change. They neither complain of…
Involvement or Commitment
We’ve all heard this analogy about the chicken and the pig. The chicken got involved……but the pig was committed — he gave his ALL. I started thinking — though the pig gave his ALL, and went out in a “blaze” of glory, he had to be replaced, but the chicken CONTINUED to survive adversity and…
It Made a Difference to That One!
Oftentimes, we tend to focus on what’s wrong with others or what’s wrong in our nation or what’s wrong in our places of business. Isn’t it time we do a self analysis about how we can be the influencer for CHANGE that impacts our world? Sure there are the obvious world changers like Jesus Christ,…
I See Me As God Sees Me, and I’m Amazed
Don’t try to convince me otherwise. I’ve seen way too much evidence that God is NOT dead, and He sees me right where I am today, and I know His love for me is vast. I’ve experienced way too many of God’s blessings, and I know they didn’t come to me by happenstance or coincidence.…
It’s the Little Things That Matter Most
Lemon meringue pie was my husband’s favorite! Yesterday, I woke with such a heart of thanksgiving for so many blessings in my life. Because it was my Honey’s birthday, I was especially grateful to have had 5 years of courtship (age 12 to 17), celebrating his birthdays, and 44 years of celebrating his birthday during…
Happy Birthday, My Love!
September 12th — the day this beautiful, loving, compassionate and caring man, Ronald Jonathan David Wuerch, was born — 67 years ago. To have known this man would have been an honor, but to have loved and been loved by him was the greatest joy and blessing that God could have ever given me. I…
