Trust Me — I Have a Purpose Here!

With all the “He said. She said” craziness in the news, it makes you wonder “Who CAN we trust these days?” How many times do we get sold a bill of goods and the goods are faulty, broken, or dysfunctional, yet we keep going back to the same merchant or using the same service provider?…

Stir Up Your First Love

As the 50th Wedding Anniversary date (July 8th) of my Sweetheart and I nears, I seem to be “in a remembrance zone”. Dear friends of mine, who are celebrating their 50th year, are doing so by rekindling the love they had 50 years ago by purposefully going on all kinds of romantic and fun adventures.…

Just a Little Band of Women

In so many places in this world, women are so marginalized and ostracized – simply because they are women. If only our world used the example of Jesus and how He loved and respected us. He really “upset the apple cart” in His culture in the way He related to women. In Luke 8 we…

Shhh. It’s Okay. Mommy’s Here.

“As a mother comforts her child, so I will comfort you… “Isaiah 66:13 Isn’t it so heart-warming to witness a young child being comforted by his mother? More than any pain that needed to be taken away, he needed his Mama’s TLC. There’s a great lesson to be learned from the way of a mother…
