Walking and Talking with Jesus
Can you imagine walking, talking, eating and laughing with Jesus day in and day out? I believe He had to lighten up and laugh with those misfits He called to be with Him 24/7 for three-and-a-half years. I appreciate how THE CHOSEN film series has captured some of those shenanigans and how patient Jesus is…
Bent Out of Shape
When I’ve watched the “America’s Got Talent” TV show, without fail, there is always a contortionist who can bend their limbs every which way. I grimace and can hardly watch them. Literally, we can say: “They are all bent out of shape!” Sometimes, we experience aches and pains and laugh about it. Maybe you’ve heard…
Can I Really Live Like Jesus?
I’ve started back at the beginning of watching “The Chosen” series. I wanted Jesus’ life in movie form to remind and inspire me once again about Jesus’ walking this earth before I start on the new Season 3. What I have seen in this incredible series makes me love our real Jesus even more. “Can…
Let’s Take a Walk
I’ve loved seeing the Easter photos of families enjoying their Easter celebrations – their new Easter clothes, meals together, and egg hunts. My youngest two grands (16 and 18) still hunt for the eggs that their mama “rabbit” hid in their back yard. I know Mama Rabbit’s story – she wants to hold onto the…
Holy Maundy Thursday
Remember when, on Thursdays, we often tagged our photos on social media #TBT (Throwback Thursday) – meaning a blast from the past. This is my little family in 1980 at our church in Shawnee, OK, It was a big deal — big enough to dress up for the big Easter celebration. Had to get those…
Hosanna! Holy is His Name!
My insides cringed when he said it. Sucking in a short, sharp breath, I realized that I would never grow accustomed to hearing Jesus’ name used while swearing. My head bowed slightly as my heart prayed, “Jesus is Lord.” We know that God’s name is holy. The commandments given to Moses reveal that. If that…
He is Here — Right Now!
It’s hard to comprehend that we are a full-fledged “blood sibling” with Jesus Christ, our big Brother. Fully God. Fully Man. We are one with Him. We belong to Him. He lives in me. He lives in you! Please don’t skip through this blog quickly today. I know that many of my readers simply scan…
My Captive Audience
The manicurists at my nail salon nicked my fingers three times. Three nicks and they’re out. So, I go to a new salon where I meet June. She is all about pleasing me, and bonus, she speaks English very well. We get through the newcomer chatter, and then I go into an internal zone, but…
What Holds YOU Back?
Last month my children invited me to attend their Perspective Leadership Summit at Allasso Ranch in Hawkins, Texas. I was stoked. The summit isn’t for the faint hearted because ropes, zip line and other courses are a part of it. And it isn’t for the faint hearted when Staci calls different ones to come to…
The Name Game
How are you at remembering names? I’ll reveal my “issue”. Remembering names hasn’t been one of my positive assets. My granddaughter was with me at an event. I asked her to “work with me on introductions”. I said, “If I remember their name, I’ll simply say their name and introduce you, but if I don’t,…
