He Believed in Me
Let me tell you about this man. If He hadn’t believed in me….I would have thrown in the towel during rough patches in my life. Those patches when I was shy, lacking confidence, and weak in faith and hope. If He hadn’t believed in me…I wouldn’t have followed His call on my heart to be…
For Lasting Change – We Need God’s Power
I was reading in the Book of Romans yesterday and was surprised by the words written by the Apostle Paul. I stopped in my tracks when I read about his problem with sin. WHAT? How could that be coming from one who wrote about our abilities to conquer whatever is conquering over us. Honestly, I…
Those Here Today and Gone Tomorrow Fads
A fad is defined as an intense and widely shared enthusiasm for something, especially one that is short-lived; a craze. I admit. I fell prey to some fads in my earlier years. Case in point. See that cute little boy. That’s my son in this photo and guess what era that was when Nehru suits…
Monday of Holy Week
A couple of weeks ago, my children had all the family over for dinner. Following the meal, we all sat in the living area to watch the photos of Brennan’s Senior Trip. Ryan, my son, was one of the chaperones. He made sure the guys in his group saw it all. From New York to…
A New Home for Elvis’ Jet
I’m sure this sounds like a frivolous start to today’s blog. Bear with me. I’m going somewhere! It is no secret that I was an Elvis Presley fan. I took in every newsworthy story about him. I junkied on his movies and songs. He was my teenage heart throb. I’ll never forget the day I…
THE Man for All Seasons
Yesterday my blog was dedicated to honoring my precious son aka son-in-law. As I called him a “Man for all Seasons – Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall”, I had this gnawing going on inside me. While Larry is a great guy and conquers each season with dignity, honor, and true grit, I had to step…
We are Everywhere and We are World Changers
We have been in the Easter season up until today which is notably called “Ascension Thursday”! It has been 40-days since Jesus was raised from the dead and eyewitnesses saw Him showing up to give them His “famous last words”. Acts 1:3 verifies it: “After His suffering, He presented Himself to them and gave many…
Loving from the Inside Out
I’m a morning person by choice. I’m up and at ‘em at 4am or 5am and posting my blog. I know that I am an anomaly to those who have late-sleeping patterns. I’ve been up for a while when our continental breakfast bar is open at 8 am. Yesterday, I went over to grab something…
The King is Coming
Please forgive my insatiable appetite for remembering the past and applying it to a blog. I’m sure it helps my memory faculties stay intact when I can pull out an old, true story that bears repeating. Just keeping those stories alive and well! It’s “the king’s” birthday today! Note: the lowercase king not the uppercase…
He’s Alive and So am I
He woke me up this morning and started me on my way…..you ask me how I know He lives. He lives within my heart! Happy Resurrection Celebration Day! Whoever said “You Only Live Once” (YOLO) didn’t consider our Lord’s living, dying, and living again forever! Jesus made a comeback like no other. And the over-the-top…
