God’s Timing is Everything
Yes, it is! I can’t begin to list off the number of times we’ve been at the right place at the right time, and at the wrong place at the wrong time. When in the right place, it seemed God had us all wrapped up, tied up in Him and His marvelous ways. At the…
The Risky Rewards of Saying “Yes” to God
I said “Yes” and married an 18-year-old man-child when I was 17. Three months later, the man-child said: “Let’s start our family!” Again, I said “Yes”. It was risky to marry so young, but even more risky to bring a baby into this world when we were mere babies ourselves. We didn’t have our maturity,…
Could this be our “For Such a Time as This” Moment?
It’s a phrase tossed around frequently. We’ll see shirts, hats, mugs, and social media posts that proudly ring out, “for such a time as this”. I know I use it a lot to impress upon someone that they are living in God’s divine destiny and purpose and it’s NOW time to step up and act…
For Such a Time As This
Queen Esther is one of my heroes of faith. Her example proves my point about being motive-driven. I love her story. She risked death by her boldness as she spoke out for her people Israel. I often quote from her story when I, or my friends, are having to make some really tough life decisions…
Wonder Woman Could Fly; Eagles Can Fly, If They Try, and So Can You and I
As a private pilot, I know that before I could get my pilot’s license, I had to take many hours of “ground” school first — to learn everything I needed to know about the airplane, what makes it fly, the weather, distance measurement and so much more. The more I had to be in ground school,…
What, are the Kings and Kingdoms in Your Life?
Years ago, our Masters IV Quartet sang a song by the Lanny Wolfe Trio that the chorus went like this: “Jesus, be the Lord of all. Jesus, be the Lord of all. Jesus, be the Lord of all the kingdoms of my heart.” The verses went like this: VERSE 1 In my heart are kingdoms…
He’s Got a Big Bark, But He’s Very Friendly
Yesterday was absolutely gorgeous here in Austin, so much so, I just had to get out for a nice, leisurely walk. All of a sudden, out of nowhere was MIGHTY MIKE, ready to take off my leg or so I thought! His owner held him back and assured me that “He’s got a big bark,…
For Such a Time As This
Though I’m “out there” when it comes to social media, I’m quite reserved when it comes to my political voice. I have my own opinions but I rarely voice them publicly. That could be seen as a wimpy way out of controversy, or it may mean that I choose to live “above the fray” by…
We Can Be A Miracle As The Hands of Christ Extended
On the night of our 3rd day of our missions trip, Staci Wallace was the keynote speaker for a beautiful church congregation. She spoke about the power and ability that we all have with Jesus living big in us. “We can ‘Be a Miracle’ — as the hands of Christ extended — to the world…
A Little Band of Women — Ordinary to Extraordinary
Happy One Year Anniversary “No Limits Life Group”! Who would have thought that when I felt God’s nudge a year ago to start a Life Group in my home that I would have met some of the most remarkable women that sincerely realize, like Queen Esther, they are HERE on this earth, at this time,…
