How About a Life Changing Walk With Jesus?
Life-Changing: Having an effect that is strong enough to change someone’s life; having a powerful effect; compelling, game changer, unconquerable I’ve loved seeing the Easter photos of families enjoying their Easter celebrations – their new Easter clothes, dinners and egg hunts.

Spoiler Alert – He Lives!
I have two word phrases today: ~ Good News: Something or someone pleasant, fortunate, or otherwise positive.

Is the Coming of Spring Bringing Spring to Your Steps?
Just 7 days until it’s officially Spring (March 20th). The pink tulips, the bright yellow jonquils and the bright yellow forsythia are out. The red bud trees are red budding. The creeping phlox are creeping out. And, Sunday, I came out — outside, that is. I’ve been hibernating for most of this winter. What happened…
Clean Up Time — Getting Out the LINT Roller!
Clean Up Time — Getting Out the LINT Roller! I, accidentally, threw a towel into my wash with my black slacks. Oops! Lint – those little fibers from that towel got all over those pants. I proceeded to pull out my trusty, sticky lint remover roller and I got all those tiny balls of lint…
Easter and the Hopes for Tomorrow
I don’t know what tomorrow holds, but I do know WHO knows and as long as I maintain my “God perspective” on just about everything this life doles out, I know I will make it through every triumph and even what may look like a tragedy. How do I know that? It was because of…
Oh, What a Beautiful Morning, Oh What a Beautiful Day!
Oh, What a Beautiful Morning, Oh What a Beautiful Day! Joy, Hope, Peace, Comfort, Life Everlasting Came This Morning! Jesus’ tomb wasn’t for the dead. It was a birthing roomfor new life. That tomb became a Delivery Room. The Apostle Peter said in Acts 2:24 “God raised Jesus up, loosing the PANGS of death, because…
