Being Light as He is Light
I saw this vehicle in Hobby Lobby’s parking lot. I’m sorry I saw it then and I apologize for showing it to you now. But this scene propelled me into my annual rant. Ghosts, goblins, zombies, witches, and Halloween paraphernalia that “haunt” us are everywhere – in stores and yards this time of the year.…
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…
A Better World Starts with You and Me
The pessimist grumbles, “I could make a better world than this.”But the optimist confidently sings, “Go for it! That’s why God put you here!” It’s true. We’re not here just to take up space. God placed us on this earth, in this time, to make a difference. And while we can’t do everything, we can…
Celebrate the Good News!
Don’t you love those words, “Good News”? I remember my early years as a Christian and how difficult it was for me to share God’s “Good News” to those around me. Sure, I did my best to be a reflection of Christ’s likeness in my words and deeds in everyday life, but I wasn’t what…
I Voted. I’m Glad I Did.
I did it! I voted in the Early Voting polls. I am also working in the polls. I have been blown away by the turnout of voters. I knew there would be a flurry of voters coming through our doors, but I didn’t imagine the numbers would be so great! By the way, Texans, you…
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…
And They Became One
Yesterday was a day I’ll cherish forever—a day filled with love, laughter, and family at a beautiful venue in Driftwood, Texas. My heart is so full, not just as a proud Nana, but as a witness to the joy of two souls becoming one in marriage. The weather was perfect—clear skies with just enough breeze…
Positioned to Hear
Ever had a phone call drop out mid-conversation, just when you’re getting to the good part? Or, been in an elevator where you’re waving your phone around like it’s a magic wand, desperately hoping for a signal? We’ve all been there. Whether it’s a concrete building or a wilderness area, reception can be hit or…
I Choose YOU!
Remember the schoolyard days when team captains picked their players one by one. I wasn’t exactly athletic, and I sure didn’t bloom like the other roses on the bush. So, you guessed it — I was usually chosen last. Oh, the sting of that self-pity! I’m so thankful I outgrew my lack of self esteem.…
God Sees You – Right Where You Are
Let me ask you this: “When was the last time you glanced in the mirror and thought, “Well, there’s a masterpiece!” If you’re anything like me, you’re probably more familiar with thinking, “Who is that tired person, and why do they have my face?” But here’s the real deal, my friends: whether you love the…
