I’ve Learned My Lessons About Look Backs

It’s been several weeks since I was able to make my trek back to Tulsa and I’ve missed everything and everyone there, especially Mom and my besties! I’m glad I’m heading there today, even in the rain AND cold! When I moved to Frisco from Tulsa in 2016, I promised God I wouldn’t look back…

Who is Trevor Lawrence, Anyway?

Uncategorized

My son texted me on Tuesday: “Good morning! I love you! Wow, did Alabama get stomped!” My reply, without looking at the score of the Clemson/Alabama championship game, was “They sure did. I’m sure they were humbled.” Actually, I didn’t see the game. Once Oklahoma was out, so was I. But, subsequently I did check…

I Was Fed Up

“Fed Up” = has had enough of a situation; annoyed with a state of affairs that has persisted for a long time. A year ago this January, a crown was placed on my back fractured tooth. I was hounded for years by my dentists to get that crown. The only problem I was having were…

Have You Ever Had an Epiphany?

Uncategorized

You know that sudden realization – that aha moment – when you suddenly understand the reality of something or the meaning of something. I’ve had many “epiphany” moments when I could see clearly what someone meant when that said “that” or when I’m reading passages from the Bible that I’ve read dozens of times before,…

Good-Bye Past, But Thanks for the Memories!

Uncategorized

I randomly watched the televised Garth Brooks Concert at Notre Dame last week. Impressive, massive crowd to hear him as he was literally “singing in the rain”. When he sang, “I Thank God for Unanswered Prayers”, I’ll admit I had to sit down and watch him AND the camera’s crowd highlights of couples looking into…

“Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.” Proverbs 31:30 This beautiful woman has been one of the sweetest, kindest, faith-filled women I have ever known. I’d love for you to know her too, so make sure you make it to heaven. That’s where she…

Do You Feel Like Quitting — Already?

Uncategorized

It’s just day three of 2019 and maybe you’re already feeling like quitting before you ever really get started on your New Year’s resolutions. I plan on spending more time with the Lord in the mornings, but “This morning I need to shorten it up because I have a funeral to go to!” I plan…

Till There Was You

Uncategorized

I was recently driving my 14-year-old grandson to school when he asked: “What’s your favorite song, Nana?” Without much thought, I said, “‘Till There Was You” and I proceeded to explain that song was Papa’s and my wedding song. He had his phone connected by Bluetooth and searched for it and up came the Beatle’s…
