A New Day for America
Yesterday’s headlines were: Donald J. Trump Wins Presidency — to Become the 47th President of the United States.” May we pray for President Trump and other elected officials to seek God’s wisdom and to lead with biblical priorities and servants’ hearts. May we pray for God to use our leaders to unify our nation and…
A New Morning — A New Hope
Good morning, friends. I wrote this blog last night — not knowing what tomorrow would hold. But, I believe we can wake up to a country ready to move forward. No matter who holds office, we can be assured of one truth that stands above it all: God is still on His throne. His plans…
The Home Stretch
We closed out the first week of early voting with having had an incredible turnout of voters. People from every walk of life have shown up with enthusiasm, casting their ballots with hope and purpose. And now, as we move into the final stretch, there’s an energy in the air, a hopeful anticipation that the…
Integrity: The Missing Piece
With every election season, the question echoes louder: who can we trust? As I watch candidates vie for leadership, I can’t help but wonder—are they people of integrity? Wouldn’t it be refreshing to know that what they say is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth? Integrity seems to be in short…
Refuse to Get Stuck
Following are words from a ministry that I receive online encouragement from daily: “Refuse to get stuck in trying to guess what the future will bring, and what you might have to do. Conjecture is not truth. Take every day as it comes and do the best you can with current circumstances. “Therefore, do not…
Worry Less
WORRY LESS?? That’s what I’m thinking about today. I bought a new computer because the old one literally passed away – along with all the data in it. Ugg! My QuickBooks accounting program was in it and I need that program and data for preparing my tax returns. Also, there’s the scam “issue” we got…
Listening for His Voice Matters
My Canadian cousin was here in Austin last week so I missed seeing him because Carl and I were on our honeymoon. We made it home late Sunday night and early Monday morning we were both headed to the election polls where we serve in this Early Voting election process. So, we never could connect…
A Lot Can Happen in Nine Months
That’s typically how long it takes to give birth to a baby. That’s pretty much a school year and it’s time enough for a couple to meet, date, fall in love, get engaged for one week and get married. That’s our story and we’re sticking to it. My “friend” that I talked about in some…
Having a God-is-in-Control Mindset
Thank goodness, the election is over. Congrats to the winners of of the political races because now we can breathe easier. The ones who won their seats proclaimed that they would fix the economy, solve the issues on immigration, women’s rights, health care, and give their supporters whatever they want from them. So, no concerns…
Sign Me Up – I’ll Campaign for Him
We’re getting closer to the mid-term elections. In fact, on Monday, I’ll once again serve as an election clerk during “early voting” as well as on Election Day. I am honored to do so, and besides, I thoroughly enjoy doing it. Seeing eager people come in and exercise their right to vote. The candidates on…
