Finishing Strong is What Matters
For Super Bowl fans, you already know the outcome, but for the rest who it didn’t matter and didn’t watch the big game, I’m breaking the news to you that the Kansas City Chiefs overcame a 10-point deficit in the last few minutes of overtime to win and become the first back-to-back Super Bowl champion…
Straighten Up, My Friends!
With all that’s going on in our lives and our world, it’s enough to make us feel like we’re carrying the weight of it all on our shoulders. And all that weight might just be causing us to have bad posture. My mama wouldn’t let me be a “slouch”. I hear her voice right now:…
PEACE — at all Cost
If I know peace it is because I know God. Know peace, know God. No peace, no God. And the peace I know is a peace that passes all understanding. I have written many blogs about peace. That peace is the basis for my MyPeaceZone.com website and this blog. Out of the seemingly most difficult…
Peace be with You
I love those words — the words of speaking peace over someone. And isn’t that what this world needs – living in a state of God’s peace that passes all understanding, regardless of circumstances or places we happen to be in at any given time? Isn’t it inspiring to listen to the faith journeys of…
Getting Enough Sleep?
Watching King Charles’ and Queen Camilla’s coronation apparently had me on high alert for news about them. I fell prey to an article that talked about their sleeping arrangements. One line on social media caused me to investigate, rather, “chase a squirrel”! Britain’s Wellness editor, Melanie Macleod, stated: “King Charles and Queen Camilla are undoubtedly…
Who Cares?
Let’s just get straight to the point of that question and give it an answer. God cares! “The LORD is near to those who are discouraged; He saves those who have lost all hope.” (Psalm 34:18) Life is filled with unexpected circumstances. I wish you could see my FB Messenger and the people who reach…
Our Prince of Peace Ensures a Peace-Filled Year
Of all the scriptures that we hear during the Christmas season, this one is like the credits at the end of a movie or even the end of an old year: “And His name shall be called Prince of Peace.” Isaiah 9:7 Aw! Giving the credit to Who credit is due. Our Prince of Peace.…
Peace is my Governor
Yesterday, I spoke about the “default settings” in electronics. We also have default settings and the ideal ones are having gratitude and the Fruit of the Spirit. A couple of days ago, I walked into a room and a situation that caused me to do an about-face. I was about to react negatively, but instead…
Join Me in my Peace Zone
That’s where I live. That place was modeled for me by my “peace-filled” mom. Tough times didn’t overtake her peace. It almost seemed she was in a bubble of peace that no-one or no-thing could pop that bubble. I’m ever grateful she modeled that peace for me. I know it too. I am adamant about…
When All is Said and Done
I’m in Austin visiting my family for several days. I was amused when a friend of theirs visited. She put her hands to her ears when the election came up in conversation. She couldn’t deal with any thought that President Trump could lose the election. I want to shut my eyes and ears too, but…
