Are You a Caregiver? Then You Are His Hands Extended.
When I moved from Tulsa a year ago, I knew God was directing me back to my home state of Texas – closer to my children and grandchildren, yet still close enough to get back to Tulsa should I be needed by my sister-in-law in the care of Mom (my mother-in-law). I have felt like…
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,…
Better to be Patient than Powerful
Patience is what we should pray for, but when we do…..it seems we encounter even more reasons to pray “Lord, give me patience, but PLEASE give it to me NOW!!!” As I type this post I’m asking God to forgive me for my IMPATIENCE. I loved my neat and tidy world here in Tulsa. Beautiful…

Got Your Clothes On Yet?
Now that’s a loaded question. The answer could be “yes”, even if you’ve got your jammies on, your swimsuit on or a 3-piece suit on. The fact is, we usually clothe ourselves according to the occasion. A t-shirt and shorts may mean a comfortable afternoon at home. A silky chiffon dress might mean a special…
Patience is a Virtue
Patience is a Virtue I saw this Instagram post and photo a few days ago and I was inspired — so much so that I’m posting about it here today. “It all started with one baby camel. Three years later, globe-trotting adventure photographer Allan Dixon continues to take selfies with wildlife, sometimes relaxing with them…
Patience is HANGING LOOSE
Day 295 of Photo Inspirations — Patience is HANGING LOOSE! This photo inspiration is from my trip to Hawaii and everywhere I went they were using the hand gesture that means “Hang Loose”. It is so refreshing to see how relaxed they are there. So many of us here on the mainland are in such…
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. And there’s those times when we’re put on hold on a telephone call, or when we’re placed in yet another queue trying to get to the right customer representative. We talk about slow…
Goodness & Mercy Following & Favor Chasing
Really? God’s goodness and mercy are following us? His FAVOR is chasing us? Isn’t that just like our Heavenly Father — pursuing us and chasing us with His desire to bless us and do good things for us? It’s not just enough to be followed by His goodness and mercy. No, He is relentless in…
You Are Living Stones
I have a birds-eye view from my office window, of the house being built across the street from me (pictured here). It’s really quite amazing how – just a couple of weeks ago – there was just a vacant lot. It is gradually becoming a home that will soon have happy occupants inside. For the…
