Fast Forward — It’s R-Rated
I’m in “search and let-it-go” mode. My community is having its bi-annual garage sale this weekend. It’s a great way to purge and get rid of junk which may very well be someone else’s treasure. I always loved going to garage and estate sales. I think that’s what led my sis-in-law and I to start…
What Wattage is Your Light?
Let’s sing it together….one more time! “This little light of mine…I’m gonna’ let it shine!” What a great old song that we learned when we were kids. “This Little Light of Mine” is a gospel song that was written for children in the 1920s by Harry Loes. So, obviously, its message was as needed in…
The Good Guys Wear White Hats
Lately I’ve been honing in on being a Good Samaritan or in Texas, we would say “being one of the good guys that wear white hats”. My Texas nephew is one of those good guys. This is Robert and Becky Wheat. I stay amused with following him on Facebook. He proudly wears his white hat…
2,000 and Still Counting
This day, July 11, 2019 — is the BIG ONE! The BIG ONE as in posting my 2,000th blog. Pardon the personal high-fives! ?? I’m beyond grateful for God’s faithfulness to me to inspire, motivate, encourage, drop nuggets of His fresh Word, opened my eyes to see the beauty in each day and to savor…
Just a Jesus Follower
“Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.”– The Apostle Paul (1 Corinthians 11:1) I was one of those non-conversational, shy, withdrawn, and lacking self-confidence, kind-of-girl. I had big faith, but little output. I kept my faith to myself. The main reason? The fear of rejection. Sure, I’d invite friends to church with…
Our Mission Field is Wherever We Are
All my life, literally, all my life, I have been encouraged to love God and share His good news. It started, early on, when I saw the flannel board images of Bible characters while my teacher shared the Gospel story. I was also taught little songs that emphasized the love God has for me. “Jesus…
Rejoice and Go Tell It On the Mountain
Yesterday was the third Sunday of Advent and we should be singing “Go Tell It on the Mountain”! Not necessarily from a mountain. That would mean we’d have to go climbing! Perhaps we can start right here at ground zero to be joyful and full of the good news of Christ’s coming to this earth…
Peace on Earth, Goodwill to All
I’ve witnessed so much peace and goodwill over the last several days since the passing of our 41st President, George H.W. Bush. Many accolades and gracious editorials, social media posts and televised stories of this very praiseworthy American statesman were seen and heard almost non-stop. His funeral, yesterday, was beautiful and inspiring even though the…
Let’s Meet Him at the Well
Every morning, I’m up and at ‘em by 5:30 am to look over the text of my blog one more time before I hit the “post” button. Not long after that, I send my morning “I love you” text messages to my children. I’m like clock-work with my daily deliveries – on FB, my blogger…
