Prepositional Phrase or Powerful Truth
I remember learning prepositional phrases in grade school. A preposition is a word such as: in, to, on, and with are usually used in front of nouns or pronouns and they show the relationship with words in a sentence. I became a technical editor at an Electric Cooperative years ago where I was the General…
Bringing our Gifts of Worship
I love that my children, Staci and Larry, named their 60+ acres ranch, Epiphany Ranch. Epiphany was the name of my husband’s missions and message ministry for many years. They are carrying on the family legacy in action and my son, Ryan, carries on as President of the ministry corporation. It does this wife and…
The King is Coming
Please forgive my insatiable appetite for remembering the past and applying it to a blog. I’m sure it helps my memory faculties stay intact when I can pull out an old, true story that bears repeating. Just keeping those stories alive and well! It’s “the king’s” birthday today! Note: the lowercase king not the uppercase…
My Sin Found Me Out
As the saga played out, I was writing this blog in my head and taking photos to bear witness to my conundrum. I saw the swirling red lights and heard the screeching siren behind me. No thought of concern because I was staying within the speed limit and making good time to Austin after a…
Coming in First Place is….
On my oldest grandson’s birthday a few weeks ago, I spoke about the “firsts” in our lives. The first job, first kiss, first child, first grandchild, etc. He was our FIRST. Today I’m talking about another FIRST. What and Who should be FIRST place in our lives. God is the King of His Kingdom. The…
It’s Our Choice: Empty, Half-Full, or Full Glass Attitude
I raised a couple of teenagers and have helped take care of those grown-up teenagers’ teenagers. I know well that they go through all spectrums of emotions at any given time. One day they’re optimistic and in a good mood. The next day they can ‘tudes that put a damper on their day and ours!…
Home at Last and the Last Laugh
Home sweet home after having been with my family in Cabo Del Sol for the last nine days. What a great way to end 2021 and begin 2022 — with family love and family fun. Attached are a few photos — only the good times that rolled — and NOT the times we’d rather not…
Are We There Yet?
Yes, we are there — in 2022! Side note: No one in this generation will be there to see it, but how cool it will be for those who are alive in 2222! But, I also like the sound of 2022. It came in like a breath of fresh air. And it was fresh air…
I Can’t Help Myself
I’ll admit it. I like being as close to the front row as possible at church. I don’t want to be distracted by those in front of me. I like being the lead car instead of a following car when traveling with family or friends. I like being at the head of the food line.…
A Happy and Blessed New Year to You and Yours
I really mean it when I say: “Happy and Blessed New Year!” Oh that I were a wise prophet promising that 2022 is going to be a banner year of multiplied blessings for all. I’m not a prophet, but I assure you that God promised an abundant life to us (John 10:10), so we might…
