I Became a Mama Bear
It is Saturday. I am volunteering in my usual capacity at the family center. Outside, lines of people are here to receive a box of free food. Some people come – not because they are hungry. They come because they are welcome. No one is turned away. I am in the family center store at…
Sacred Moments at the Well
Every morning, I’m up and at ‘em by 4:30 am. It’s a must to look over the text of my blog one more time before I hit the “post” button. I’m like clock-work with my daily deliveries – on FB, my Google blogger page and MyPeaceZone.com. I always feel like I’m “reporting for duty” each…
Surprised by Great Love
In these in-between days from Jesus’ resurrection to His ascension, I enjoy reading about the beautiful “surprise” stories that verifies that Jesus really came back to life and moved about to prove it. At first those who witnessed Him alive were startled and then they were elated that their Savior lived. I love the story…
Our First Line of Defense
My blog inspiration for this day is slow in coming, Soon the creative juices start to flow. It starts with an annoying, over-sized, buzzing horse fly that overflew his bounds since the night before. I attempt tactical warfare — swatting and spraying – but the beast lives on. Then, while sitting at my desk, he…
Only One Perfect One
I’m still faithful to my “One Year Bible” daily readings. I’ll admit I might miss a day or two, but I’ll catch up and get back on track as soon as I can. I don’t say that to impress you, but it does impress me because I am getting so much out of these readings.…

Grown with Love
“Nothing Says ‘I Love You’ more than an Orchid. Give your Valentine a gift that is as unique as they are. With graceful, arching branches, and exotic flowers. Orchids are easy to care for with blooms that last!” Those were the words and this is the image that Calloway’s Nursery sent to me in their…
I’m So Hungry
Being “hungry” took on a new meaning for me recently. I have a wonderful devotion book that comes with daily scriptures and a great, practical message to back them up. I also listen to the “Bible in One Year” scriptures from my phone app. I guess I’m an overachiever because I don’t want to miss…
Where Two Shall Agree….
I’m in my cozy chair all set for my morning devotion and prayer time and I remember the sweetest surprise last weekend. My dear friends, Charles and Sheila Michie, invited several mutual friends over for a pot luck meal. Little did I realize it was a set-up to celebrate my birthday (26th). I was so…
She’s a Looney Toon
Remember those wacky, wild, half-witted Looney Tunes characters? We laughed at their shenanigans who seemed to always be getting into some kind of trouble. They gave us plenty of comedy relief. We often think the same thing of overzealous Christians. They are the ones who are standing on a street corner waving a “Jesus is…
