Enjoying Billowy Cloud Cover
Our trip to East Texas and Epiphany Ranch didn’t disappoint! We took advantage of the wonderful, somewhat cooler temperatures. We went to see my sweet cousin, Mary Ellen Snow, who moved to Tyler, TX from Frisco, TX. We were neighbors in Frisco, buds in Tulsa and Dallas before that. It looks like the cousins still…
Tested -Tried – Proven – Rewarded
Back in 2012, my son and his team created and launched a technology company. I was one of the founding members and thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to be a part of something so innovative. Before the technology was brought to life, there were months of testing the product. Then when we had the product in…
Feeling Satisfied
The word, satisfy, conjures up all kinds of images in my mind. The most recent was on Mother’s Day. Satisfy means to fulfill, gratify, or meet someone’s expectations, or needs. I could check the box in front of each one of those words because I was over-the-top satisfied. A mom with her family around her;…
Memorial Stones for Remembering
Thank you for your indulgence as I have been in inspiration overload from VBS this week. The end of Day 5 brought mixed emotions: “Aw! We Made it!” and “Oh no! It’s Over!” The latter are my words as this joy-filled week is over and I return to my quiet and peaceful home. The former…
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…
ROAR — When Life is Wild — God is Good!
Last year I heard about the exciting and fun-filled times that were had by the kids and the adult and teen volunteers at Vacation Bible School at my church. With all that enthusiasm, I didn’t want to miss out this year so early on, I enlisted! And, I am so glad I did. Today is…
Satisfy Me, Oh Lord
Satisfy Me, Oh Lord Satisfy: meet the expectations, needs or desires of someone; gratify, fulfill I’ve returned home to Frisco, after a packed-full week in Tulsa, and before that, many trips there and back to get Mom’s estate sale all ready to go and completed. Our customer, Mom, was completely SATISFIED with the sale that…
Stuck in the MIDDLE?
The MIDDLE: the center, an equal distance from the extremities of something; halfway, a position at an equal distance from the sides, edges or ends. The middle child. The one in the middle of a circle. The piano’s middle “C”. The middle of the night. I know what being stuck in the MIDDLE is all…
Whose Super Hero Are You?
I was listening to a Christian radio station as I drove to Austin. The DJ talked about a family he knows whose wife and mom was diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer. The entire family dressed up in Super Hero costumes and went with her to each of her chemo treatments to let her know she’s…
Remain, or Be Raised?
Tested, tried, and proven fact: How we talk and complain, and talk and complain about our present circumstances and challenges……determines how long we’ll get to stay right there, and, if we keep it up, we’ll even get to go around the same mountain again and again and again! Remember the Israelites being stuck wandering in…
