Letting God Set Our Pace

My pace has drastically changed from the busy housewife, mother, women’s ministry leader, piano teacher, church organist, and office administrator when my children were very young. I often look back at those days and wonder “How did I manage to keep my head on straight? How did I maintain a calm, cool and collected image?…

Can You Hear Me Now?

Can You Hear Me Now? Remember Maxwell Smart in the “Get Smart” series — speaking into his shoe “Can you hear me?” And that line is also from the cell phone commercial that indicates bad cell coverage. But, I wonder how many times we’ve used that line with our kids. “I said for the 3rd,…

Lord, Please Give Me Patience….NOW!

Our generation seems to have little patience for waiting. Road rage is seen when there’s someone moving way too slow in traffic.
