Living in the Peace Zone
4,000 and Still Counting
This day, January 13th, 2025, is the BIG ONE as in posting my 4,004th blog. (I was caught off-guard with surpassing 4,000 until today.) Pardon the personal high-fives! 
I’m beyond grateful for God’s faithfulness to inspire, motivate, encourage, drop nuggets of His fresh Word, open my eyes to see the beauty in each day…
Of course, I am going to blog about peace and goodwill today. And, in so doing, I am sucker-punching the enemy of my soul. I have had way too many reasons to throw in the towel lately than I care to talk about. But you probably know that I can’t help but talk about it.…
If I know peace it is because I know God. Know peace, know God. No peace, no God. And the peace I know is a peace that passes all understanding. I have written many blogs about peace. That peace is the basis for my MyPeaceZone.com website and this blog. Out of the seemingly most difficult…
I personally need this blog today. I’m sitting front and center! Maybe you can use it too! We all long for deep and real peace, but where is it when it seems anything, but peace is all around us? I’ve heard it said: “There will never be peace until we’re all laid to rest.” Those…
(Continued from the SHE – Girls Night Out and the last two days’ blogs) 4. Have there been times when you felt like you lost your identity? How did you then rediscover it?It was probably when my husband graduated to heaven. We were always a couple since we were ages 12 and 13. We did…
Yesterday, I spoke about the “default settings” in electronics. We also have default settings and the ideal ones are having gratitude and the Fruit of the Spirit. A couple of days ago, I walked into a room and a situation that caused me to do an about-face. I was about to react negatively, but instead…
I have little time to scroll through my FB timeline, but when I do, I often get a bright idea for my next blog. I saw a post a few days ago and it inspired me to keep telling stories of my past. Even though my listeners and readers may yawn at yet another one…
For anyone who has been around a two or three year old very long, I know you know the many questions they ask:. “What’s that? Why? When? Where? How?” At first it was endearing, but before long – we get worn out with all those questions. Can we even imagine how tired God must get…
2020 is almost here. I love that round number. My grandson, Payton, was born in 2000. No problem keeping up with his age. It’s the same end-two digits of the year. He’ll be 20 in 2020. I enjoy studying numbers and their meaning in the Bible. Here are some clues for what we can expect…
My husband and I were given this beloved Holy Family figurine on the occasion of our 35th wedding anniversary when we resaid our wedding vows. It is one of my dearest treasures and though it’s displayed right now with my poinsettia floral piece, you’d find it displayed somewhere in my home year-round. It reminds me…
