Living in the Peace Zone
All my life, literally, all my life, I have been encouraged to love God and share His good news. It started, early on, when I saw the flannel board images of Bible characters while my teacher shared the Gospel story. I was also taught little songs that emphasized the love God has for me. “Jesus…
Long overdue for a nail pick-me-up (aka manicure), I head to my local nail salon. It’s Tuesday so not the usual crowd. Great – I’ll be in and out in a jiffy! An adorable Vietnamese girl, who by the way, speaks English very well, greets me and invites me to sit at her booth. Her…
I’m saluting my age 70+ friends today and counting my blessings because in two days I’ll join you as I embark on my own 70+ ride! My Frisco family and I are making our way down to Austin for my “7-0 party” weekend. I’m so thankful that I made another year, particularly when I consider…
Yesterday I stopped by my children’s home and I saw this aluminum foil creation with a point on the top (and, of course, a bow to show it was designed with a woman in mind!). Alexia (my creative granddaughter) had made it the night before. I’m not sure where her imagination was going to but…
I met this beautiful couple at a Holy Spirit Retreat this weekend. Leon and Lorraine, who, by profession, are truck drivers. I learned about the benefits of being a truck driver – especially when you have your spouse with you and she’s a driver, too. Though the financial blessing is right at the top, for…
I live in a 55+ community of almost 3,000 homes and I’ve noticed incredible patriotism throughout on this Memorial Day. American flags are lining the main roadways and most homes have a flag in their yard or on their home. I’m quite sure many of those who live in this community are veterans and/or they…
Following God’s lead, looks like this for me for a few days (see photos). I’m here in Austin on a “ministry” call to see after my youngest grandson for a couple of days before his big brother gets home from camp up in Seattle, and then we’ll have Nana/Bryson/Brennan fun for a couple of days…
I’ve been taking you with me on my journeys lately — even beyond my Holy Lands trip. Yesterday I alluded to my sharing God’s love to a couple of people — one being a young man who was the tow truck driver for my car. Here’s the back-drop to that story. While driving from a…
LET IT BE And, Mary said “‘Let it be’…unto me according to your word.” In essence, she said “YES”. Such a simple word — only three little letters. but that “YES” changed everything for us. By her humble obedience to trust in what God was asking, the course of human history was changed. It wasn’t…
Twelve years ago today, my husband and I (aka Papa & Nana) were making our way “turbo speed” to Nashville. Our 5th grandchild was about to make his big debut and we were relentless in getting there before he did. And, complying with our hopes and desires, Brennan Keith Wuerch hung on for us to…
