Behind Closed Doors
Ever say: “I’m waiting for doors to open”, meaning a job opportunity, or patiently waiting for a store to open its doors, or the cash windfall that you could sure use that’s behind those closed doors? Remember when we placed our hands and fingers in a position to show “Here’s the church; here’s the steeple.”…
The Voice
I am a fan of the television show, The Voice. The judges’ backs are turned to the singer as they belt out a hearty song. The judges listen and they turn their chair if the singer’s voice is worthy of the competition. There was one voice that got may attention. It was my mama’s when…
Choosing to be like Jesus
We have all experienced it. We just heard an amazing sermon at church about being the light of Christ, and, ten minutes later, we’re trying to exit the church parking lot. We’ve got a ‘tude about the traffic and getting to our lunch date on time. We might even forget about using our car’s turn…
Our Beautiful Minds
As I type this blog today, it occurred to me that I am very, very grateful for my computer. And, I might add — grateful that it is working well, AFTER having a technician help me with the problem of my computer restarting in the middle of the night which resulted in a loss of…
Designed for Connection
I gave my youngest grandson a Lego Millenium Star Wars set with hundreds of pieces in it for his birthday. My mind just about went “tilt” when I saw how complex it would be to put those pieces together to make sense of that photo on the box. But the next time I went to…
Ain’t No Mountain High Enough
My little eyes saw the lighthouse and church atop the mountain. It was a “God” moment when I recognized His presence as I gazed at those two sources of bringing safety to boats and people! I spoke about them in a recent blog. I’m a noticer, a seeker and many times, a finder! I’ve always…
Our Hearts have Eyes
Oh, the beauty of the landscape and ocean-scape here. This is my heaven-on-earth place of Cabo San Lucas aka Cabo del Sol. We are taking in everything beach and ocean. I am up early to post my blog (we are behind one hour from Austin’s time zone, so I must get moving an hour earlier…
Our Mission is Wherever We Are
All my life, I have been encouraged to love God and share His good news. It started, early on, when I saw the flannel board images of Bible characters while my Sunday School teacher shared the Gospel story. I was also taught little songs that emphasized the love God has for me. “Jesus loves me…
I’ve Got Friends in High Places
My sweet granddaughter, Alexia, and her Yorkie, Emma, have been here with me for the last few days. I always relish this fun girl time (i.e., girl talk, shopping and eating out). One of our mutual enjoyments is a little thrift shopping. I came home with a great stand for my laptop, and she came home with two…
Seeing Sideways
This blog was inspired from an email I received from someone who enjoys turning pictures sideways and seeing what new picture they can see in it. Honestly, I can’t ever say that I intentionally looked sideways at a picture, but it didn’t take me two seconds to see the church looking like a rocket in…
