We Create Beauty Around Us
Ever walk into a home, and not only are the asthetics, the furnishings and the atmosphere breathtaking — not because of the opulence — it could be a small apartment or cabin, but you just sense a presence of peace, comfort and serenity? You feel it. And it feels VERY GOOD. And the owners of…
Service – 24/7
Ever feel like you need to talk to someone, but for one reason or another — you think it’s too late or too early in the day, or you don’t want to be a bother, or they may be busy, or they don’t have the time — so you just don’t make that call? How…
Here For A Purpose and Assignment
I am a very busy woman. That’s on purpose. I am passionate about life and squeezing out every drop of it that I can. Not only do I work as a marketing representative showing visitors the wonderful community where I live, but I’m a member of another company where I get to share an amazing…
Are You Watching Me?
“Nana” My 7-year old grandson hollers my name “Come, watch me catch a fish!” “Nana!” My 10-year old grandson calls out to me “Watch me sing with my new karaoke machine.” “Nana!” My 12-year old granddaughter yells to me “Watch me ride my skateboard!” “Nana!” My 14-year old grandson calls out to me — “Watch…
I Was Hungry and You Fed Me
My Life Group meets at my home every Thursday night. These women are amazing, faith-filled, fully devoted followers of Christ, and I’m inspired by them every week. It seems that God hand-picked our group — each one has unique talents and abilities, and has unique circumstances going on their life, but watching how God answers…
Don’t Give Up!
This precious, quiet, unassuming, yet amazingly talented woman is representative of what God does when it seems all hope is gone. A couple of years ago, her husband of 40+ years passed away after a long battle of cancer. As if that weren’t enough to cause her to go the way of depression, sadness, mourning…
EVERYTHING Has Its Season
Yesterday I received a Hobby Lobby email and it said, “Fall in love with Fall”. Then, it hit me. Fall has literally sprung up on us — school is back in session, and last weekend, the college teams’ fans were out in numbers as they sported their favorite team shirts and colors. I’m already noticing…
Think Before You Speak
Oh, how I want to put my finger to people’s lips and say “Shhhh — don’t say that!” when I hear then say things like “I’m so stupid”, “I can just look at a cookie, and I gain weight”, “I get a cold this time every year”, “I could never win at that”, “I’ll never…
Hard Working People — Happy Labor Day!
HAPPY LABOR DAY!! This is the day to honor all of our hard working Americans who make life so much better for us. And, particularly, I want to thank those of you who don’t usually get the acclaim and recognition. You know who you are — the garbage truck workers, restaurant cooks and waiters, cashiers,…
For Such a Time as This
I love the story of Queen Esther. She risked death by her boldness as she spoke out for her people Israel. I often quote from her story when I, or my friends, may be experiencing turmoil, chaos, and even loss. I’m reminded — that just like Esther, “I may have come to a royal position…
