Championing My Sisters
That title might sound like I’m championing a movement for declaring our rights as women. Well, yes, I am, in a sense. What I’m actually declaring is the power that God placed within us to be world changers and history makers. I am so blessed to be a leader for a beautiful group of women…
He Sure Has Mighty Big Hands
In Tulsa, OK are these mammoth “healing” hands located at the entrance of Oral Roberts University. I’ve seen buses of tourists from around the world stopping there to take photos of one of Tulsa’s most identifiable landmarks. Though I lived in Tulsa, I became a tourist myself when I took this photo and I found…
We Have a Lamp Inside Us — Light it Up With a Smile!
I’ve been on both sides of a smile — giving it and receiving it. I learned from first-hand experience the importance of a smile. I’ve been the “new girl”, already nervous about my first day on-the-job, and a kind and warm, smiling fellow employee meets me with the biggest smile and welcome that cuts right…
Living — Laughing — Loving
Isn’t that what it’s all about? Living….really living this life we’ve been given — with all its many adventures. Laughing out loud in the midst of the good living and the tough-living-times.

July 12th, 2011 — The Carpenters (one of my favorite 60s duo) sang…”On the day that you were born the angels got together, and decided to create a dream come true. So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold and starlight in your eyes of blue” (Song was “Close to You”). And today,…
I’ve Got the POWER!
I’ve known some pretty powerful people in my time. Power in the sense that they commanded a room when they walked into it. Power in the sense that they could make some very important decisions and alter the course of a country or a company. I enjoyed the 2003 movie, “Bruce Almighty”. I watched it…
From This Day Forward
We’re in Atlanta at last — celebrating the love and marriage of my firstborn grandson, Braden Wuerch and his darling fiancee, Ruth Hays. Last night was the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner — hosted by Ryan Wuerch and Shawntel Wuerch. It was quite the spectacular affair that included not only the wedding party, but also out…
Turn on De-Light!
When I think about God’s goodness to me I think about Psalm 37:4 “Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart.” That reminds me of our daughter, Staci — when she was living at home, she pleaded with her Dad for a dog, but because she was so…
