The EMwomen Hope House
Once a long-distance runner, running miles a day in preparation for another half-marathon, I have since retired from those long distances. But I’m still in it to win it! I have ran/walked several 5K’s to support various teams or organizations. The first 5K was the Route 66 in Tulsa and was in honor of my…
Happy Presidents’ Day
I researched and found this day began as a way of celebrating President George Washington’s Birthday. Now this federal holiday honors all U.S. presidents on this day. Do we acknowledge, with gratitude, what our presidents sacrificed and did for us? Why would anyone, including our current president, desire this position? What is it about the…
The Beginning – The Middle – The Victory
It’s a process. You and I both know the drill. The beginning when the crisis initially occurs, and the deliberations ensue on how best to make it through. Then there’s the middle when we pray, hope, and stand strong – doing our best to do what we can to make it through. Then there’s the…
Confidence has its Rewards
According to my journal, today is the 37th day of quarantine. How time flies when we’re having so much fun!

Faith Crisis? Don’t Stop Now. You’re Almost There.
I have many friends who are facing a faith crisis — some in their health, their finances, their relationships and/or simply fear for what the future holds. After all, if we watched and listened to the news long enough, and believed it – we could all take a tail spin. It’s not that we don’t…
Trusting God When It Just Doesn’t Make Sense
I sincerely ask God to give me the words I should provide in my daily posts, and today, I was compelled to share these words. Maybe your heart is breaking because of a recent tragedy and you don’t know if you’ll survive the pain and heartbreak. I know some of you who are there right…
Can You Hear Me Now?
“Heaven to earth calling! Can you hear ME now? “Good morning/afternoon… this is God. I will be handling all of your problems today. I won’t need your help. So, have a great day, and P.S. I love you….I’ve got this!” Whew — what a relief that is! I don’t have to worry or fret about…
