You’ve Got to Try a Little Kindness
Glen Campbell first sang that song in 1970. It was a smash hit. You’ve got to try a little kindnessYes show a little kindnessJust shine your light for everyone to seeAnd if you try a little kindnessThen you’ll overlook the blindnessOf narrow-minded people on the narrow-minded streets God repeatedly speaks about being “kind to one…
Win All Day
Pictures speak louder than words, but since I, being a widow with excess words to deliver, will provide this blog with words AND pictures. This first photo is of my beloved son by marriage (Staci’s husband) and his best “other” friend than Staci – his John Deere Tractor. His dream come true. His baby. His…
Peace, Goodness and Mercy in the Storm
I love to share about God’s peace, goodness and mercy that follows us all the days of our lives (Psalm 23:6) but then comes along another storm that rocks and reels our world. Hurricane Ida came in with a vengeance. I was thankful to see my Louisiana friends mark themselves as safe on Facebook. But…
You are Working all Things for my Good
Not only is that a passage from the Bible in Romans 8:28, it is the lyrics of a song written and sung by Gospel Recording Artists, pastors and dear friends, David and Nicole Binion. I was about to start writing a blog about that verse when I started singing the words written by David and…
The Blessings of Sunshine and Showers
April and May showers have continued to bring us such beautiful, cooler temperatures here in Austin. I stepped out to my car and my friend’s delightful, playful, and friendly Labradoodle, Magellan, came bouncing (literally) to me. He was off his leash and he sees me. It’s like he’s taken a sunshine pill. He starts running…
A Good Shepherd Leads His Sheep & Goats
Here I go again with more inspiration from “the tales of Bryson”. My youngest grandson’s life is consumed with the great outdoors and his animals, so of course, his live-stock causes my mind’s “ticker tape” to keep rolling! His priority is his animals’ care and he loves it when I help him feed them at…
When Life is Sad — God is Good
I just can’t help myself. The inspirations at VBS keep coming so I must keep sharing! This has been a week of watching so many precious children get all caught up in God’s goodness and yesterday was off the charts. We had a departure of wandering in the wilderness with the Israelites to a day…
A True Romance is Going On
Day 269 of Photo Inspirations — A True Romance is Going On So I’ve known romance. My husband was the truest romantic EVER. He loved candlelight, love songs, little “I love you” notes, surprise date locations, slow dancing, surprise gifts, and though I knew I wasn’t the most beautiful girl in the world, he made…
You’re the Apple of His Eye
“If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it. If God had a wallet, your photo would be in it.He sends you flowers in the Spring, and a sunrise each morning.You’re the apple of His eye and the delight of His heart.”-Max Lucado I’d say that makes you and me quite special. To know…
Goodness & Mercy Following & Favor Chasing
Really? God’s goodness and mercy are following us? His FAVOR is chasing us? Isn’t that just like our Heavenly Father — pursuing us and chasing us with His desire to bless us and do good things for us? It’s not just enough to be followed by His goodness and mercy. No, He is relentless in…
