There Will Be Miracles
I’m still basking in the glow of all the birthday love — thank you, dear family and friends, for making me feel so celebrated! But today I’m carrying that gratitude forward with a reminder that lifts my heart every time I see it: “There will be miracles.” I bought that sign years ago. It still…
Grads, Your Future Is So Bright…You’re Gonna Need Shades!
I’ve been soaking in all the graduation photos filling my feed — caps flying, grins beaming, and proud families everywhere. What a time of celebration! And this week, it’s our turn. Our granddaughter Adeline will graduate from Westlake High School on Wednesday at the Moody Center. And our grandson Bryson will walk the stage at…
Hallelujah! HE LIVES!
The tomb is empty.The grave clothes folded.The stone? Rolled away — not by men, but by the hand of the Almighty.Death lost its grip.Hell lost its claim.And hope?It rose with Him. Jesus didn’t just die for us — He rose for us.He didn’t just promise resurrection — He proved it.The One who was mocked, beaten,…
Nesting for the King
Oh, how vividly I remember “nesting” like those mama birds, tirelessly fluffing and preparing for their baby birds to hatch! It’s in our mama DNA, isn’t it? We wash, fold, organize, and somehow manage to cram the equivalent of a department store into one tiny nursery. Those moments of preparation were filled with anticipation, excitement,…

Bah Humbug!
Yesterday, many members of our Lamplighters Bible Fellowship group rode in a chartered coach bus to Georgetown, TX – first stopping for a delicious meal at Tony & Luigi’s Italian Restaurant. Then to the Palace Playhouse Stage where we enjoyed, “A Christmas Carol” performed by tremendously talented actors and actresses. The play recounts the story…
The Sunflowers are Abundant
The family that captures memories together……STAYS TOGETHER…. in love, in support, in encouragement, and in MEMORIES! We missed our two granddaughters: Adeline, Carl’s granddaughter who is a cheerleader at Westlake High School in Austin and couldn’t miss “Senior” night at the football game. And my Alexia, who is attending ministry school in Nashville. But, sooner…
These are the Moments
It isn’t the money in my wallet or the car I drive or home I live in. It isn’t the TV show that makes me laugh or the movie I see that inspires me. Nothing can compare with the priceless gratitude moments that represent my favorite things. As I was writing this blog after just…
