Why Are We Poor Little Lambs Who Have Lost Our Way?
Remember singing “We’re poor little lambs who have lost our way. Baa, baa, baa”? That little song represents many of us who wander off from their shepherd. The cartoon here is funny but, the message is clear and VERY real to our lives. Jesus said, “My sheep listen to my voice, and I know them,…
Embrace the Place
Because my car had hit the 90,000 mile point, my car dealership rep advised me that I would soon need to have my transmission flushed to keep it running smoothly. That service would be $180. I thought I might go to a nearby service shop that I had used for a front light replacement. Their…
Do You Have “Wide Awake” Parties at Night?
My Mom was a light sleeper. I was a sound sleeper, but over the years, I’ve found myself waking up more often, and even after only about 6 hours of sleep at night, I’m wide awake. There’s plenty of traits my Mom had that I want, but not that one. I was telling my mom-in-law…
Stay Out of the Shark’s House!
By now, you’ve probably seen this video-gone-viral of Veronica Poleate. She’s hilarious but still gives a very serious, truth-filled message. In this video, she describes her concern about yet another person being attacked by a shark. She is urging people to go to the beach, but to stay out of the ocean because the ocean…
What Would You Request of Your Genie?
When driving my two youngest grandsons to school, the older one, Brennan, asked his younger brother, Bryson, “If you had a genie in a bottle, what would you wish for?” They certainly earned love tokens when they both replied “For Nana to live with us forever!” Of course they had some other outlandish wishes, but…
A Bear, A Lion and a Big Dude
I posted about David and his giant, yesterdayt! Just wanted to add….a P.S. to that post! David DID win that epic battle with Goliath, but God had prepared him in the trenches, in the “small” things. David was faithful to fulfill his responsibilities. David did anything God asked him to do. When he faced the…
I’m Going to Adventureland!
Ever felt like that little bird that was done with that not-so-cozy nest and was ready to take wing and fly away? It may be called “restlessness”. My friend and I were visiting yesterday about willing to live out loud with no regrets — ready to take on some adventures. Quite frankly, I think I’ve…
Serving God Right From the Start
Day 307 of Photo Inspirations — Serving God Right From the Start Of course my photo inspiration today is my precious godson’s “first” time to serve at church. I teared up as I witnessed this precious boy serving our Lord and His people. This same boy that had such a rough start in life because…
Embrace the Place
I was going to be driving to Texas by 6 am. But last night I thought I should check the air in my tires. When I did, I saw a big nail in the last one. Now, I’ll be going to the tire store at 8 am (when it opens) to have them change the…
Leaving Behind Faith Footprints
On Thursday, a dear uncle graduated to heaven and, of course, thoughts go to the precious memories we made together, as well as the legacy and the footprints he left for us to follow. He was a beautiful soul, but most impactful, was his last year and a half where he lovingly, tenderly and devotedly…
