Write the Vision and Make it Plain
When my daughter was single, she made quite the list (100 items to be exact) of all the qualities she was hoping for in a future husband. She wrote out her vision and she made it VERY plain. When Larry came along, initially, he was about 95 out of the 100. But, the longer they…
??People Are Like Cheetos??
I saw this graphic, and whoa-la, my inspiration for today’s post! That’s how I roll – a billboard, words of a speaker or friend, a personal predicament or blessing, a dream, another friend’s post, a fleeting thought – all of which are who or what gives me the inspiration for my daily blog. Most of…
Procrastination – the Thief of Time
Thomas Jefferson said, “Don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today!” Seems I’ve known those words all my life. My Mom quoted them to me when I’d wait to study for a test until the last minute or wait to practice my piano until the day of my next lesson. But, here I…
Our Great Creator and Entertainer
My typical Sunday morning routine is to listen to an online church service or Christian video while I’m endeavoring to “beautify” myself — hair, make-up, clothes selection, etc. Yesterday, my search left me wanting, so I stopped looking. I promptly apologized to God and said, “How could I be looking for something to entertain me…
Gridlock Traffic or the Autobahn?
Years ago, my husband won an 8-day, all expenses paid trip for us to Malmo, Sweden to attend the Solheim Cup with the LPGA women. It was one of the highlights of our lives and besides being there for the Europe/USA Solheim Cup, we were able to venture out on our own pre-tournament. One adventure…
The Steps of a Good Man Are Ordered by the Lord
I send an early morning text message to my children every day. Yesterday, I texted my son: “’The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and He delights in his way.” Psalm 37:23. I went on to say: “I love this scripture because it describes you and how God delights in the…
Judge Them Oh Lord!
As my readers know, I am a sunny sky, rainbows-after-rain, kind-of-writer, but it seems irreverent to not acknowledge the dark clouds that blew in when New York lawmakers legalized abortion until birth. My heart ached when I saw the “celebration” and the gleeful faces of those lawmakers in my newsfeed. My heart cries out “Judge…
Our Secret Place
I receive daily emails from a ministry that sincerely seeks God for His daily thoughts. These were the words God gave them for us yesterday that really resonated within my heart: “When you feel vulnerable, make a concerted effort to do what it takes to be as safe as possible. However, you must not forget…
The Marks of a True Worshipper
The Marks of a True Worshipper What prompts a young man to love God so much that he relentlessly serves Him and hangs out in His House? These two photos are of my grandson, Payton Wallace: the first one, at age 15, and the second (now age 18) was Sunday when he was praying for…
The Right to Abundant Life
The Right to Abundant Life Today marks the anniversary of the Roe v. Wade legal decision, issued on January 22, 1973, that legalized abortion in the U.S. I wanted to take my thoughts a step further than the two March for Life videos that I posted last week of hundreds of thousands of pro-life advocates,…
