God, Please Breathe on Me
In my prayer time, I said these words “Thank You for your breath, Lord!” What? Where did that come from? To who do we ever say “Thank you for your breath”, because breath can be stinky? But not so with the breath of Jesus. In asking for His breath, I knew that I was asking…
I am Amazed
I’ve seen way too much evidence that God is NOT dead, and He sees me right where I am today, and I know His love for me is vast. I’ve experienced way too many of God’s blessings, and I know they didn’t come to me by happenstance or coincidence. I’ve been loved so much that…
The EMwomen Hope House
Once a long-distance runner, running miles a day in preparation for another half-marathon, I have since retired from those long distances. But I’m still in it to win it! I have ran/walked several 5K’s to support various teams or organizations. The first 5K was the Route 66 in Tulsa and was in honor of my…
Let’s Share Our Stories
Right off, please let me thank you for reading my blog and my many stories. I am a deep well and there’s plenty in me to talk about. But today, it isn’t my story. It is the story I read on social media a couple of days ago that urges me to ask you to…
Brand New Year. Brand New Life.
It’s a brand-new year — 2023! And best, news, ever……according to 2 Corinthians 5:17 “This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!” If only that were true when it comes to poor health, broken hearts, sad songs, relationship debacles and…
God With Us
I have been partying since December 22nd when I drove to Alto, TX to be with my daughter and family for several days of Christmas celebrations. From there, I headed back home and party-hardy was the theme at the Wuerch’s in Austin. The day after Christmas, we headed to Cabo del Sol where each day…
Hope is Great Expectancy
When our children marry and have families of their own, we may have to do some tweaking to adapt to their lifestyles and their way of doing things differently than what we did. So, rather than resisting the changes, I’ve decided to take hold of them and own them. I’ve become quite savvy at accepting…
Accepting Our Mission
Today is the fourth and last Sunday of Advent. We have been journeying through this tender time with Gabriel, the messenger of God Who announced Mary’s destiny of becoming the mother of her Savior if she chose to accept the call. She said: “Yes!” Gabriel was also the chosen angel to deliver the “mission” to…
I’m a Rich Kid
Yesterday I spoke about the privilege of being in the family of God. Did you know an inheritance awaits us in this family? An inheritance is what is rightfully ours for being part of a family. If I am an heir to a multi-billionaire, and he dies, you’d better believe I’ll be there for the…
In the Waiting Room
I’ve had my share of hospital waiting rooms — waiting while someone is having surgery or waiting for the birth of a precious baby. In both cases, while we’re waiting, a transformation is taking place. Parts of the body that were diseased or broken are being removed or repaired. And, joyfully, waiting to see and…
