 Shhh! Don’t Say That!

I’m the one that usually wants to put my finger to people’s lips and say “Shhh — don’t say that!” Especially when I hear them say things like “I’m so stupid”, “I can just look at a cookie, and I gain weight”, “I could never win at that”, “I’ll never be able to afford that”,…

A Little Chat about Grace

I live in God’s grace. I just know it. We all do! No matter what kind of mistake(s) we make, there is always a solution for restitution. It comes in the form of grace. It is God’s grace that heals and restores. He exchanges our tarnished slate for a fresh, clean slate so we can…

We Can Do Hard Things

I flipped on the TV and started watching the 2024 Paris Paralympics. I was in awe of the talent, physical strength, drive, and sheer determination to do what those who have all their abilities intact – wouldn’t consider doing. These incredible Paralympians do what others would think is impossible. My heart opened with a new…

Refuse to Get Stuck

Following are words from a ministry that I receive online encouragement from daily: “Refuse to get stuck in trying to guess what the future will bring, and what you might have to do.

Not Mine But Yours

“For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.” (Matthew 6:13) How’s that for putting our souls at ease? God is THE ONE in control – no matter what! So, let’s bid Him a sweet “Good night, Lord” and sleep like a baby! “Easy for you to say”, you might be…

Friends in High Places

Garth Brooks struck a chord with his hit, “I’ve Got Friends in Low Places.” The tune might be catchy, but the lyrics?

If We Had One Wish….

Imagine this: A genie pops out of a bottle (yes, I know, we’re not supposed to believe in genies, but stick with me). He tells you that you can have one wish, just one, and it will be granted immediately. What would you ask for? Would it be something extravagant, like endless wealth or world…

Be the Chocolate Chip

I have a confession to make. In my foodie world, nothing compares to the joy of a perfectly baked chocolate chip cookie. I’ve had my fair share of them — store-bought, homemade, you name it. But, if you ask me, Hilton’s Doubletree Hotel still holds the crown. There’s something special about biting into one of…

As we celebrate Labor Day, let’s pause to reflect on the countless hands and hearts that work tirelessly to make our lives a little brighter each day. From the farmers who rise before dawn to harvest our food, to the teachers shaping young minds, to the medical professionals caring for our well-being — each one…
