Living in the Peace Zone
I know some folks raise an eyebrow when we say, “God said” or “God spoke to me,” but truth be told, our Creator is always sending messages — even if they’re not delivered via a dramatic thunderclap from above. In my daily walk, His voice is more like a gentle whisper than an overwhelming shout.…
It is wonderful to wake up in my bed after several days in Lubbock TX. I was given a full blown tour of my husband’s beloved Texas Tech campus, enjoyed meals with his family and friends, and attended his dear friend’s memorial service. Thanks be to God for home! Home sweet home. There’s no place…
And, the wait is worth it. Over the multi-years of my life, I have faced insurmountable times of worry, defeat, dealt with problems that couldn’t be solved, health issues that seemed hopeless, and many things that I couldn’t understand. A miracle was needed and sometimes it felt like it was too little, too late, and…
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…
Countdown to midnight! It’s New Year’s Eve! Timing will be everything when that ginormous Times Square ball signals 2022 has begun. 2021 is almost ready to be wrapped and put away.

It didn’t go with the new contemporary furniture and accessories that now donned my…
As I do daily, yesterday morning I sent my children (all four – husbands and wives) a text message. This day I sent them all a similar message. I had been pondering how my children are living in seasons of tremendous blessings. God has answered so many of their specific prayers. It seems, more than…
We’re counting the minutes, hours, days and now weeks. For some of us, we’re three weeks into this time of isolation. And we keep asking “How much longer?” Only to hear “At least through April 30th!” That’s not surprising God at all. He’s been listening to us ask those questions long before this pandemic. “When…
Happy New Year! Yes, we are there! 2019 came in like a breath of fresh air – especially if you walked outside at the midnight hour to light some firecrackers or simply to take in 2019 from the outside in. Now, an entire year of awesomeness awaits us. The squares on our 2019 calendars are…
This last March, my Wallace Family and I went to Disney World in honor of the 10-year anniversary since Papa (my husband) celebrated his 60th birthday and Alexia celebrated her 6th birthday there. It was so special to be there to remember that special time we had together before. What made it even more special…
