Trusting God When It Doesn’t Make Sense
Yesterday I posted about the times when we are afraid to trust. We have a host of reasons to have a problem with trusting, especially when it comes to relationships and when someone broke our hearts or when dreams crushed or when we’re let down by a sickness reoccurrence. But we have proof of those…
Honoring President George H.W. Bush — Character is What Mattered Most
A gift of two tickets from my children to the OU vs Texas Big-12 game on Saturday sure made me giddy and proud to represent our Oklahoma team well. It was a thrill to be on the “winning” side in the Cowboys’ incredible AT&T Stadium. On our way back home, my Waze app directed us…
How Do You Fight Your Battles?
How Do You Fight Your Battles? Do you bear any bruises and scars from battles that you may have been in lately– maybe in the political arena or even in your home or workplace? On Sunday, I encountered a very well trained cashier at a store who was courteous, friendly, and even gave me a…
Predictable or Unpredictable
Ever since my grandson, Payton (now 18), was just a little guy he’s loved playing the piano. It started with my husband who could play anything but loved Christian music and jazz. “Little” Payton jumped on the piano bench to plunk out notes while Papa played. The first song Papa taught him was “Chopsticks”. He…
Proven Way to Get Your Way
Oh my. This girl. She. Cracks. Me. Up. On the way to Beavers Bend a couple of weeks ago, my granddaughter was working her daddy over to stop “pleeease” stop at a Chick-fil-A so she could get a biscuit. We were already running behind in our schedule. And she could have easily gotten herself one…
What SUPPLEMENTS Do You Take?
From the looks of this photo, you’d think I am a supplement and vitamin junkie. Well, I guess I am and this case of pills and capsules proves it. Many years ago I realized the health and nutrition benefits from a regime of daily supplements that include vitamins, minerals, herbals, and fish oils. Most recently,…
Audacious, Unwavering Trust! I Want to Live Like That!
We’ve all been part of coaxing our little one to take that first step “Trust me! I won’t let you fall!” Or that little new swimmer-in-training “Let go of the wall! I’ve got you! Trust me!” Or that high flyer when Daddy says, “Jump! Trust me!” Those walk-of-faith, swim-of-faith and leap-of-faith times mean the child…
Hearing God’s Voice is a Hot Topic
Wikipedia defines GOD’S VOICE as: The voice of God, in Judaism and Christianity, is a “heavenly or divine voice which proclaims God’s will or judgment.” No doubt, by now, I’m sure you’ve heard “The View’s” co-host Joy Behar’s inconceivable words about Vice President Mike Pence’s faith. “It’s one thing to talk to Jesus. It’s another…
My 2018……and Beyond — Resolutions
My Word of the Day is Resolution: a firm determination to do something, and not change it. Doesn’t that make sense? Maybe that’s why so many fail at “resolutions”. We want a short term fix. A goal has an end date. A resolution is unending. One of my “goals” with an end date of on…
We Are Published Authors and Photographers! Does it Matter?
To my Facebook friends and family I want to say how thankful I am that God gave me you for going on 10 years now. You have brought so much joy to me as I’ve come to know you more because of your posts and photos that gave me the opportunity to share your good…
