Living in the Peace Zone
Max Lucado (my favorite author) hit the nail on the head when he said, “You have a God who hears you, the power of love behind you, the Holy Spirit within you, and all of heaven ahead of you…” Now, if that doesn’t make us want to shout a hallelujah, I don’t know what will!…
Yesterday I woke with fresh optimism about what our future holds for us. Was it because we hoped and prayed President Trump will make positive, healthy, morally, and biblically sound decisions that will unify and protect our country, turn our hearts to God, and “make us great again”?

It’s only day eight of 2025, and maybe you’re eyeing those New Year resolutions like leftovers in the back of the fridge? As for me?

Our recent journey across Canadian provinces and America’s upper states seems to have awakened my senses to appreciate God’s handiwork in places, nature, people and things more than ever before. And, that appreciation has given me food for thought and a new, keen awareness of His creation for my next blog. On excursions, traveling via…
I’m revving my engine — mentally and physically. My personal, physical engine had a routine colonoscopy yesterday! I kept thinking while I was surviving all the prep work: “How could I have scheduled this procedure at this time of year?” “Wow! Let’s get another colonoscopy next week!” – said no one EVER! For goodness sakes…
This is my last “Early Voting” day at the polls. Now onto the big finale on Tuesday. If you haven’t already – please vote before it’s too late. It is a right we should never avoid. Do you need a friend to take you to the polls? Please call someone to take you or if…
I’ve heard and sung about God’s amazing grace all my life. Though we make mistakes and have not-nice attitudes and are weak in our grace to others, God loves us deeply anyway. Grace – God’s unmerited favor — is always helping us in our weaknesses. “But He said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for…
