It’s a Test Worth Taking
During my last Wednesday night’s Bible Study, one of our gals shared a sweet love story. She told our group that she and her husband were in bed, and he commenced to pick up his Bible and read this to her: “Leah is patient. Leah is kind. Leah does not envy or boast. Leah is…
Harping about Loving
What can we do about this world’s craziness? Let it play out? Or, as Christians, demonstrate radical love so that hurting, misunderstood and broken people will know Jesus by OUR love. Jesus reached His world in three short years. Those years ignited a flame that continues to spread to OUR world. Jesus “harped” on love.…
Love is an Action Word
My son is a speed reader. He must be. With his businesses and on the board of several companies, he must read and review tons of documents and correspondence. If he wasn’t a speed reader, he’d be bogged down with more paperwork than he could handle. I’ve become a speed reader, too! And there lies…
Our Mission is Wherever We Are
All my life, I have been encouraged to love God and share His good news. It started, early on, when I saw the flannel board images of Bible characters while my Sunday School teacher shared the Gospel story. I was also taught little songs that emphasized the love God has for me. “Jesus loves me…
This Time I’m NOT Speed Reading
In December, the pastor at my Austin family’s church held up a paperback “One Year Bible”, while encouraging everyone to read through the Bible this year. After all, if we want wisdom, divine guidance, and God’s favor, then studying God’s Word daily and acting upon it, will be the key to success in 2021. At…

Our Mission Field is Wherever We Are
All my life, literally, all my life, I have been encouraged to love God and share His good news. It started, early on, when I saw the flannel board images of Bible characters while my teacher shared the Gospel story. I was also taught little songs that emphasized the love God has for me. “Jesus…
Love is an Action Word
My son is a speed reader. He has to be – as the CEO of a large technology company, he has to read and review tons of documents and correspondence on a daily basis and if he wasn’t a speed reader, he’d be bogged down with more paperwork than he could handle. I’ve become a…
Loving the Unlovely – Test or Torture?
This Peanuts cartoon shows Lucy speaking to Linus, “I am human and I need to be loved just like everybody else does.” God bless Lucy. She reminds me of some folks, even my own self, at times. If you’ll remember dear Lucy’s personality — she was characterized as loud-mouthed, aggressive, temperamental, and sometimes dumb. She…
Love Means Saying “I’m Sorry”!
My word for today is: APOLOGIZE – to express regret for something one has done wrong; saying “sorry”, asking for forgiveness; asking for pardon Today is the last day of February, the month I deemed early on as the LOVE month. What a better way to end it than with an appeal for us to…
