Little is Much When God is in it!
My course was altered yesterday when the flu bug took me out and I had to direct the movers from my “Director’s Chair”. It was my long-awaited moving day. Thank goodness for dear Denise Gerrich who supports and helps the Wallace’s and me so unconditionally. She co-partners in so many valuable ways. Remember the story…
An Apple a Day, Keeps the Doctor Away
Yesterday I posted about apples and their little seeds that have the potential to produce many apple trees. I love the saying “Little is much, when God is in it.” and I like to think the King of our universe paid a lot of attention to the king of fruit, the little apple. It is…
The Apple Didn’t Fall Far From the Tree
I amused myself yesterday when I saw these three apples in a bowl at the Wuerch’s home. I remembered that phrase we use when we see a parent and children look-alike and we declare, “The apple didn’t fall from the tree!” That implies that it’s obvious who the parents are and who those children belong…
Easter and the Hopes for Tomorrow
I don’t know what tomorrow holds, but I do know WHO knows and as long as I maintain my “God perspective” on just about everything this life doles out, I know I will make it through every triumph and even what may look like a tragedy. How do I know that? It was because of…
Oh, What a Beautiful Morning, Oh What a Beautiful Day!
Oh, What a Beautiful Morning, Oh What a Beautiful Day! Joy, Hope, Peace, Comfort, Life Everlasting Came This Morning! Jesus’ tomb wasn’t for the dead. It was a birthing roomfor new life. That tomb became a Delivery Room. The Apostle Peter said in Acts 2:24 “God raised Jesus up, loosing the PANGS of death, because…
A Day to be Sad….Really?
You may know the heartache and feelings when one of your closest friends or family members just passed away…..yesterday. You wake up the day after, and it’s up to you to handle the responsibilities of planning the funeral, the burial, notifying relatives, and handling so many details of figuring out what to do without them.…
Shouldn’t “Good Friday” be called “Black Friday”?
At first I thought “Black Friday” specials on “Good Friday” — how dare they? But then I thought maybe Home Depot is on to something with their Black Friday specials. After all, on this day, the most scandalous betrayal of justice in human history took place. Jesus wasn’t guilty of any crime or sin. After…
Improving “Our Serve”
#TBT — Today is the ultimate #throwbackthursday. Years ago, my husband was the Director of a Christian Summer Youth Camp in Oklahoma. He pretty well “ran the show” – the camp activities, schedules, oversaw all the camp leaders, counselors, and volunteers, the daily outdoor church services, etc. I oversaw the kitchen, the meals and serving…
Going With the Flow When It’s Slow
Yesterday, Alexia and I left Austin early to beat the morning traffic. As we took to the highway, I said “At least it isn’t raining…..”. Famous last words, because no sooner than I said those words, it started to mist but we were still on time to make it to Waco by 8:20 am and…
It’s Not Always the Way It Looks or Sounds
Have you ever been trying on clothes at a store and that outfit looked great in those amazing, magical store’s mirrors? You even might have thought “You’re looking 10 pounds thinner”! But at home and when trying that outfit on, it was like “What was I thinking? What was I seeing?” And, what about those…
