I Want to be God’s Promotional Display
Ever notice how strategically retailers display items in their store to draw us in? It’s all about them using psychology to grab us and encourage us to spend more on items we didn’t even realize we wanted. Even the height of items matters. Lower items for the kiddos to see and beg for that “must…
What Passion Drives You?
What gets you out of bed every morning? The alarm clock? The baby crying? The dog nuzzling you? The “John”? When motivational speakers and vocational counselors ask this question, they’re not looking for those kinds of answers. They want to help us identify our PASSION — something we love to be doing with our life,…
The Invitation Read — Bring Spouses
Sunday was the celebration of Epiphany – the arrival of the Three Kings’ visit to the Holy Family. The manifestation of the Lord. So why should I have received little knots in my tummy on Friday when I received this invitation? “It’s that time of the year for our annual Epiphany get together with spouses!…
Is Your Glass Half Full or Half Empty?
I raised a couple of teenagers and have helped take care of those grown-up teenagers’ teenagers. I know well that they go through all facets of emotions at any given time. One day they’re optimistic and in a good mood. The next day they can have ‘tudes that put a damper on their day and…

Epiphany Sunday and I had an Epiphany
Today is Epiphany Sunday. I love those words: “Wise men (and women) still seek Him.” It is an EPIPHANY when one soul seeks Him and finds Him. And when we find Him, we find more than we ever imagined. For in Jesus Christ, we find forgiveness, inward peace and joy, today, and the promises of…
Created to Create
A “must-do” when we’re in Cabo is to attend the Art Walk in San Jose del Cabo. Every Thursday night, artists, artisans, and other creators show their talents and sell their artwork. There are paintings, wire-work, sculptures. You name it. It is there. Oh how I admire those who use their hands, minds, and hearts…

NEW – What a Wonderful Word!
I’m back home in Austin, but I am still relishing the joys from Cabo. We celebrated the old year out and the new year in at the beach where there was delicious food, fireworks, and a big screen, with music artists (Adele, Phil Collins, Whitney Houston, etc.) singing their famous songs, plus a dance floor…
We are Learning our Lessons Well
While in Cabo, we ended a night at a Karaoke Party where my grands showed off their singing and dancing skills. Hilarious! I played the blow-up guitar and wore a Balls of Fire Hat (oh, me!) as I gigged with them! New Year’s Eve night, we danced to the beat of the DJ’s music during…
