What is it Like to be You?
“Ice breaker” games with an unfamiliar group of people provide us the opportunity to get to know each other. What if this question were asked: “What is it like to be you?” It would depend on how we felt physically, mentally, socially, economically, relationally, and spiritually on that given day. If we felt good –…
A Letter of Perspective
My blog today was inspired by Ruth Graham Lutz’s (Billy Graham’s daughter) letter that I received on Friday. I didn’t follow the news about the devastation left in the aftermath of Hurricane Ian. But this letter opened my eyes and heart, and I hope it does yours too. I know the damages realized from tornadoes,…
Gentleness is Strength
It’s never too late to acquire Godly traits in our lives. I’m quite sure the Apostle Paul had good reasons for writing about the Fruit of the Spirit. He was surrounded by whiners, complainers, and others who needed a good dose, rather a good fruit to munch on. And, here we are centuries later, and…
God Inscribes Our Name
I saw a friend write a phone number of someone on the palm of her hand. I’ve seen others write their grocery list on their hand. And, I remember when I was a kid in school, seeing some “cheaters” write the answers to test questions on the palms of their hands. I’ve been a fan…
As the Deer Pants for the Water
After time in Frisco and Tulsa, my journey was six hours southeast to Rusk, TX. That’s where Epiphany Ranch is located. The 62 acres permanently house women who have had tremendous life changes and they carry on there in supporting and helping meet the goals of the ministry to help as many other people as…
We Need a Governor
I’m not talking about the upcoming governor elections but a device that keeps us at bay! It’s Friday, September 23rd, and it is smooth sailing aka driving as I make my way to Frisco, TX where I will be speaking to a beautiful group of women there. I am keeping up with the motorists who…
Don’t Stop Believing and Building
I just finished my daily readings of the Old Testament in my Chronological Bible. But today I want to share the recent story I read there before I speak to the beauty of the New Testament in days to come. It is the story of Nehemiah and the building of Jerusalem’s wall. I’ve had plenty…
I’ll Go Where You Go
Like the show “Wheel of Fortune” where the wheel turns round and round, that is me! Someone said that about me: “Round and round SHE goes, and where she stops nobody knows!” And they were right! I hit the road from Austin TX to Frisco TX last Friday, a week ago. From Frisco to Tulsa,…
Seen Any Rainbows Lately?
Yesterday I blogged about clouds. Today, it’s rainbows. This first rainbow was just near my residence in Austin. A mere short-lived rainshower brought that one. Then, a couple of weeks ago, my daughter’s family and I were in Corpus Christi at Port Aransas where we boarded a big fishing boat. It was pouring down rain.…
I’ll Take a Cloud…or Two
I read my “FB Memories” from this day a couple of years ago. Back then I was all caught up in gratitude for the rain, and cooler temperatures and the Fall season that was in the air. This year it seems Summer doesn’t want to give way just yet! I’m in Tulsa right now, and…
