Living in the Joys of Today
Upon leaving the inspiring and encouraging time with friends and family at the Homegoing Celebration for my Honey on Friday, November 19th, 2010, I knew it was time to turn the page for a new chapter in my life. With our children and grandchildren at my side, we would go home and continue the celebration…
Get Your HOPE Up!
Did anyone ever say to you, “Don’t get your hope up!” Bless their hearts – they just don’t get it. They don’t know what we know. They don’t know that we have the Most High God on our side, and He is connecting us to the right people, giving us a brilliant idea, showing us…
Christmas BEFORE Thanksgiving?
It’s been beginning to look a lot like Christmas for MONTHS now. And, I saw some FB posts where folks were grumbling about Christmas decorations being sold and Christmas music playing since back in August. I get that retail stores, needing their sales, amp it up to get us into the “buying” spirit waaay before…
And the Blessings Just Keep Rolling In
So I’m not bragging, I am just thanking God for His blessings to me and sharing what a blessing it was yesterday — the last day of my car warranty, to be able to pay $2,265 for an extended warranty that will give me another three years of peace of mind. Four years ago in…
Playing the “Waiting” Game!
Waiting on a traffic light….what seems forever! Waiting for a doctor appointment….. what seems beyond usual. Waiting in what we thought was the fastest line at the grocery store…..only to realize THAT was the slowest line. It is inevitable that we will spend a great deal of time in this life…..waiting. Lines at the airport,…
What is Your Life Echoing Today?
What is your life echoing today? In other words, what is your life reaping? I learned this lesson well. I remember when I would wake in a grumpy mood and everyone in the house could feel it. Before long……they would chime in, and they’d be grumpy, too! We, literally, can set the tone and the…
What Do You Say and Think Each Day to Encourage YOU?
Who do you hang around with the most? YOU! And guess what, YOU are your own role model and mentor and encourager.. What do you say and think each day to encourage YOU? Being aware of what we say — really does make us feel better…..or worse. Do you de-value yourself by saying…”I’m so stupid.…
In His Presence is Fullness of Joy
Wednesday morning, November 17th, 2010, I posted this paragraph to FB: “My Honey, Angel, Sweetheart, Confidant, and Best Friend is having breakfast with Jesus this morning….and I’m sure it’s the “All You Can Eat Buffet”! We’re celebrating his homegoing last night. I know he was given the “royal treatment” — red carpet, anthems playing and…
Welcome Home!
Today, November 16th, is the 4th year anniversary of this beautiful man’s promotion to heaven. I say it that way because he fervently believed this life on earth, is just our internship for what we were created to do, and be, in heaven. I know he’s on assignment there, as we are all on assignment…
I’ll Do It Afraid if I Have to, but I’m Gonna’ Live With No Regrets!
“I’d rather face my fears and bowl them over, instead of being bowled over by my fears. I’ll do it afraid if I have to, but I’m gonna’ LIVE WITH NO REGRETS!” — Donna Wuerch I’ll NEVER be a stuck-in-a-rut thinker. I’ll NEVER be a rocking-chair grandma…unless I rock my grandbabies. I’ll NEVER settle for…
