We were Subjected to Change and We did it!
No I didn’t. I sure amuse myself. I had this blog all set to go this morning. I even spoke about change in my blog yesterday. But, what do you know? I forgot about the time change, and here I am up an hour earlier because of it! Argh! Oh well, maybe I’ll get a…
Making Course Changes
My grandson, Payton, inspired this blog today. We’ve been packing up his family’s home for their move to Rusk, TX. Lots of course changes for this crew. All the birds have left the nest. Alexia, who loves Frisco, her many friends there, and she loves being a barista at a trendy coffee shop (and her…
Gimme That Childlike Faith
Yesterday, I blogged about the mighty giants who our children can be in today’s times. Today, I’m talking about wanting to go back to having that childlike faith again that loved those flannel board stories of a little shepherd boy who conquered a giant with a sling and a stone. I want that giant-conquering mentality…
God Isn’t Scratching His Head
How far we’ve come since the worst thing that we could get punished for in school was chewing gum or triggering (with a ball point pen) a stink bomb! Whew! I can still smell that in the halls of my school or the chemistry classroom. And fast forward a few decades to the 2020’s and…
Living with No Regrets
There are five things that we cannot recover in life:The Stone…………after it’s thrown,The Word………….after it’s said,The Occasion…..after it’s missed, The Time…………..after it’s gone.A person…………..after they die. I realize this after I’ve missed a chance to call a friend and didn’t. When I failed to remember another friend’s birthday. When I forgot to pray a little…
Amped Up and Ready to Take the World by Storm
Thanks to my grandson #4 who provided the inspiration for this blog. If you follow me, you know that I stay with my two youngest grandsons when their parents go out of town. On Saturday, I was up at my usual “comin’ alive” time of 4:30 am. When I came out to the living area,…
Happy November and Being Grateful for Those We Remember
What a great start to this beautiful “Thanksgiving” month with a day that celebrates our heroes of faith! It is All Saints Day and it’s not just to remember them, but it encourages us to imitate them. So many devoted their lives to God and were Christ’s Light bearers. Many were martyred for their faith.…
🎃The TREAT of October 31st, 1922🎃
This sweet little lady is my dear mother-in-law, Lydia (Winick) Wuerch, who God presented to the world 99 years ago today. Though she was born on the day attributed to Halloween, she was always the TREAT, not the trick. I talk a lot about her because her life changed my life since I was 12…
Do You Get Caught Up in the Winds?
In Rusk, TX where they are working relentlessly on their property that will be a blessing to many, I received this text message from my daughter on Thursday: “It’s intense here; 60+ mph winds! Our contractors are having to take measures on our house so that it doesn’t come apart. Please pray for secure protection…
Don’t You Tell Me God Can’t Do It
Last weekend could not have been more exhilarating and memorable. I rolled back the curtain of many treasured memories that sparked undaunted faith for miracles. Don’t you tell me God can’t answer prayer! I have proof positive from just a couple of days of “raising hallelujahs” for what God has done. Hopefully, I’ll increase your…
