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…
The Straw That Broke the Camel’s Back
This photo is from my recent trip to Israel – right at the foot of the Mount of Temptation. Having my photo taken on a camel was a “must” but little did I realize that the little boy (about 10 years old) that was leading the camel would say “let’s go” and that camel started…
You Can’t Put Love on Cruise Control
I attended Holy Cross Church yesterday and was blessed in several ways, besides being able to worship and praise God for His many graces and blessings to me. First of all the East Indian pastor was congratulated and applauded because this last week, he became a U.S. citizen. He had been the pastor of this…
Marriage is 50/50 — That’s Garbage! Love Means Never Having to Say You’re Sorry — That’s Garbage!
For the last three Sundays, the scripture readings in the Catholic Church, have been from Matthew 5 which includes Christ’s Sermon on the Mount. The 1st Sunday — the Beatitudes; the 2nd Sunday — being salt and light and last Sunday’s was “stepping up our game”. Well, not exactly in those words, but Pastor Samuel…
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 very loud-mouthed, violent, aggressive, temperamental, sometimes dumb.…
We Welcome to the World, Another Mr. & Mrs. Wuerch!
And they will live happily ever after…..well, at least that’s what we hope and pray for, but as Pastor Danny Chambers spoke in the ceremony — we all know marriage is never all sweet — there’s some challenges that they will inevitably face. Those who have been married know that to be true. But, on…

Love is the Answer to EVERYTHING!
Day 29 in this Month of Love — Love is the Answer to EVERYTHING This day marks the last day in my celebration of this month of love. Why would God want me to post about love this month? And perhaps a more telling question, why would our enemy NOT want me to post about…
Can We Pass the Love Test?
Day 11 in this Month of Love — Can We Pass the Love Test? I can’t post about LOVE in this Month of Love without mentioning the scripture that we hear in just about every wedding ceremony. Words from the “Love” chapter, 1 Corinthians 13:4-8. “Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or…
A True Romance is Going On
Day 269 of Photo Inspirations — A True Romance is Going On So I’ve known romance. My husband was the truest romantic EVER. He loved candlelight, love songs, little “I love you” notes, surprise date locations, slow dancing, surprise gifts, and though I knew I wasn’t the most beautiful girl in the world, he made…
