Clothed in Strength, Dignity… and a Little Sparkle
Sunday night I traded my election badge for a runway pass! Our fearless leader, Anita McGinnis, planned another one of her creative “Sweet Tea” events — this time, a holiday fashion show. Twelve of us “models” (and I use that term loosely!) headed over to Posh Mercantile, a new dress and accessories boutique, to find…
Breaker – Breaker 1-9
“Got a copy?” “How do you read me?” “Got your ears on?” If you were around in the 70s or 80s, you’ll recognize those words as good old CB (Citizens Band) radio talk. And yes — I was a CB-er! My handle? “Honeybee.” I’d buzz across the airwaves and say to a trucker, “You’ve got…
Welcome to My Safe Place
My Safe Place is smack dab in the green pastures where God always soothes my soul and gives me daily ideas for yet another blog. Most days, folks read the words, smile (hopefully), and carry on with their day. Occasionally, I get a “like” or a heart and let me tell you — those little…
💥💥💥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…
Peace, Goodwill to All Men AND Women
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.…
PEACE — at all Cost
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…
Peace, Wonderful Peace
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…
The Truth About Our Identity – Question 4
(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…
Peace is my Governor
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…
The Only Story You’ll Regret is the One Left Untold
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…
