Remind Me, Dear Lord
Remind Me Dear LordI’m in my cozy chair. I’m a little dozy. I take off my glasses, shut my eyes, and a few minutes later, I’m awakened by this old song in my mind: “Roll back the curtains of memories now and then. Show me where You’ve brought me from and where I could have…
Disappointment or APPOINTMENT
I’ve given it few days since CNN’s headline: Kansas City Chiefs, led by Patrick Mahomes, pull off epic Super Bowl comeback”. Whether you are a 49ers or Chiefs fan or not a football fan at all, if you tuned into the Super Bowl game last Sunday night and watched it all the way to the…
A Match That Was Literally Made in Heaven
Happy 23rd Anniversary to my two children – Larry and Staci Wallace! I am so grateful for your choices, your commitments and your devotion to God and each other. Today, my blog is dedicated to honor you and your example of a “match made in heaven”. And you followed through by treating it that way…
Our President’s State of the Union Address
I wanted to give my response to President Trump’s State of the Union address with Godly words and wisdom. But, instead, I will give you Dr. Jim Denison’s words that pack-the-punch that I wanted to provide. Thank you for allowing me to step back for Dr. Denison to tell us how we should react as…
Guarding My Attic AND My Heart
Squirrel intruders started last year. So bad that they burrowed into my attic with a 6” x 3” hole. I heard them scampering around having a “heyday” all season long. Grrr! I surmised the enemy was out to get me and my peace! But, eventually, no more noise plus $150 bill from my handy man…
See — Hear — Speak No Evil
Yes, doesn’t take stepping out of our homes, watching a half-time Super Bowl show, listening to the news or saying what we really mean to someone to realize that there’s a whole lotta darkness out there! But, see ye, hear ye and speak ye — we don’t have to become part of the darkness but…
Okay! I’m Done. Winter Can Be Over.
Winter is one of my favorite seasons. I look forward to its arrival every year. Cozy fire in the fireplace, wrapping up in a blankie, hot coffee (well, that’s any time of the year). The practical truth — no yard maintenance costs and utility bills go way down. I love the excuse “It’s too cold…
His Heart Went Out to Her
I scroll through my FB timeline. I see a post that stops me in my tracks. It features a photo of a beautiful, toddler boy. His eyes of an angel draw me in. So does his name. Bryson. The same name as my youngest grandson. I read further. My heart aches. He has been diagnosed…
Let’s Be Pep-Talkers AND Burden-Bearers
Based on my social media newsfeed, I know there are many who are suffering. It’s easy to respond to a “sufferer’s” FB comment with cliches like: “Praying for you.” Or, with scriptures like: “When we are weak, He is strong” or “All things work together for good.” Please don’t misunderstand me: Those words are true.…
