Living in the Peace Zone
I do my best to write a blog or two each day. But, my words don’t hold a candle to God’s. His words have divine power. They don’t just inform; they transform. When He speaks, things happen. Creation itself was birthed from the sound of His voice. Our God is faithful. If He promised it,…
The people of Babel had one goal: “Let us build ourselves a tower with its top in the sky, and so make a name for ourselves.” (Genesis 11:4). They weren’t just building a tower; they were building a legacy of their own making — striving to be remembered by their achievements rather than by who…
I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of hearing Cece Winans sing “The Goodness of God”. It’s not just a song; it’s my anthem, a reminder of all the ways God has shown up in my life. I’ve already told my husband that when my time comes to leave this side of heaven, I want…
God needed a vessel — one He FAVORED above ALL women to be the Mother of Jesus. “The angel came to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored!….” (Luke 1:28) God chose Mary to be the First Lady of our faith. She was found faithful. She was the first to believe in Jesus…
Nike’s three little words have certainly had a shelf life that has been strong since 1988. No slogan has come close to making the cultural impact and getting the worldwide acceptance of Nike’s unforgettable phrase. The “Just do it” tagline became one of the biggest ad ideas in history because it spoke to each person…
Psalm 91 has been my go to: 911 number for years. Get it? Psalm 91:1 “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.” It is my 911 call for daily protection for my loved ones and myself. The whole chapter is about “In God…
For some time, my daughter has been encouraging me to write a book that includes my blogs. I haven’t had the drive to write it yet because each day I realize that I am not the author of my faith story. I’m still here, pressing onward and upward, so I’ll just keep journaling via my…
I just heard the K-Love DJ talking about the pumpkin his little guy picked out at the pumpkin patch. It seems that pumpkin patches price their pumpkins by the pound and this little guy picked out a pumpkin that cost the DJ dad $62. He didn’t have the heart to get a smaller pumpkin, so…
Saturday night I made it to church in time to kneel and pray for a few minutes before the service began. I remembered an old Dottie Rambo song as I prayed: “I didn’t come here to ask You for anything.I just came to talk with you Lord.You’ve answered a million prayers or more,That I forgot…
Yesterday, I was pondering about how simplified my life has become at this season of life. Up at 4:30 am, post my blog for the day, send my “love” text messages to my children, go to the fitness center to work out for an hour, come back home for coffee, breakfast, vitamins, reply to emails…
