I’m a Jesus Fan
Yes, I’m a Jesus fan! I can’t help myself. He has done so much for me in the peace, comfort and joy categories that makes me want to make Him even more famous. My blogs speak of Him often. I’m sure you have seen Jesus fans carrying signs on street corners that say something like…
Bold and Brave Believers
They are those who have the kind of faith that steps out in bravery, courage, taking bold moves and fearless risks as they believe and pray for others and themselves. We have an incredible “Lamplighters” (aka fellowship group) at our church that we joyfully attend after Sunday morning worship. Unlike our teenage years when Sunday…
Is it Possible?
NEVER should we EVER say, “It can’t be done” or “I can’t do that” or ANYTHING when God says “Is there anything too hard for me?” Genesis 18:14 We have friends in a very challenging place right now. Maybe you are there too! Just a quick refresher: Christmas was almost a month ago. Remember Mary!…
WITH GOD — Nothing is impossible
We can count on it! I apologize right up front for this being an almost redundant blog each year on this day. But, each year, I think about what the Lord did, and I can’t help but celebrate. This story is made possible…..only, WITH GOD. Today is the 26th anniversary of my children – Larry…
Being Enough
I remember a time when I begged God to make me just like other super-moms and super-wives – organized, intentional with preparing healthy meals, ensuring my children were the respectful, honorable, ideal kids, and dutifully being the “pristine and perfect” wife, with a “zippedy-do-dah” kind of personality. I so wanted to imitate other women who…
Oh Happy Day!
Lest this blog sounds braggadocios, I’m using a scripture to explain: “Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.” ( 1 Corinthians 1:31) Please indulge me as I boast on God’s faithfulness, His goodness, and His mercy to me. After Elizabeth declared “Blessed are you among women and blessed is the fruit of your…
God, My Husband and My Chiropractor
I am by no means comparing my chiropractor to God, but I have noticed both have similarities. Years ago, I fell down a flight of stairs — 12 steps from top to bottom…..on MY bottom. The breath was knocked out of me and I felt like a compressed-together accordion. I had a serious back injury…
Don’t Give Up Too Soon
“Don’t give up, on the brink of a miracle!Don’t give in, God is still on the throne!Don’t give up, on the brink of a miracle!Don’t give in, remember you’re not alone!” That was a song we sang as a confession of believing “NOTHING – no-thing – is impossible with God!” On a personal note…..I can’t…
Don’t Tell Me It Can’t Be Done
Those of us in the prime of life have seen wonders, miracles, and accomplishments beyond what we would ever have imagined when we were youngsters. I’ve been here long enough to have witnessed medical breakthroughs, major problems solved, and inventions that have made life better for us and now it’s hard to imagine ever living…
God is Good. All the Time.
A stand-by familiar chorus sung at church, church camps and other gatherings had very simple lyrics: “God is so good. God is so good. God is so good. He’s so good to me.” As a child, I remember my go-to prayer at the dinner table. Not because I had a tight relationship with Gid, but…
