❤️❤️ Love is an Action Word ❤️❤️
I’ve become a speed reader.Not just with emails and text messages — but with my Bible. And that’s when I have to stop and scold myself a little — because the Word of God is not a checklist. It’s not a “get-it-done” assignment. It’s a love letter from the One who knows my name. But…
He Holds Tomorrow
On the little shelf outside our apartment door, I change out a bit of décor each month — nothing fancy, just something meant to encourage passersby by giving my voice to faith and calm in a noisy world. This January, I placed a simple sign that reads: “I don’t know what the future holds, but…
I’m Amazed that I Know So Much
I’m a knower. I know a lot of things.I know I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed (but I can still hammer out a decent blog post).I know I’m not winning any “beauty queen” trophies.I know my muscles don’t flex quite like they did when I was twenty — and that’s okay because elastic…
Pass It On — The Comfort You Know
2 Corinthians 1:3–4 says it so beautifully:“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.” That’s not just…
“She Opens Her Mouth with Wisdom” — Hey Girls, That’s You and Me!
Happy Mother’s Day to all moms — and to every woman with a heart that nurtures, comforts, teaches, and tends to others with that unmistakable maternal instinct. Let’s be honest: not every woman has children of her own. But oh, how many have mothered the world around them in powerful, quiet, faithful ways. You’ve offered…
Home Sweet Home, Here and There
As much as I love traveling and soaking in the beauty of places like Puerto Vallarta, there’s nothing quite like coming home. We returned home yesterday! Sweet Home Austin! Home sweet home! Home is where the heart is. There’s no place like home. My happy place. Home, my sanctuary. A place of comfort. Home, my…
Our Divine Security Patrol
In a world filled with uncertainty, we are constantly reminded of how fragile life can be. By now, you probably know that last Sunday there was another attempt on President Trump’s life. Lord, have mercy! It was another chilling reminder that no one, no matter how powerful or protected, is immune to danger. That’s why…
Not Mine But Yours
“For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.” (Matthew 6:13) How’s that for putting our souls at ease? God is THE ONE in control – no matter what! So, let’s bid Him a sweet “Good night, Lord” and sleep like a baby! “Easy for you to say”, you might be…
Healing by Helping Others
When I am hurting, who do I think of most? ME! I check my text messages right after I post my blog each morning. This day’s message from my son made me hurt for my youngest grandson. “Our Bryson had quite an accident today. They all went to the lake. Bryson was climbing up a…
Where is YOUR Sweet Spot?
A few days ago, I wrote about my “sanctuary” where I find sweet peace and rest. That’s my “sweet spot”. Jesus said to His disciples “Come away with me and rest awhile” (Mark 6:31). Did you know when all around us seems to be chaos that we can “Lie down in green pastures so our…
