About Our Father’s Business?
I have five grandsons. I am watching each one come into their own desires for their future. Of course, my sons would hope their boys wanted to follow in their “business” footsteps, but so far, each of those sons are choosing their own way. It isn’t because those boys don’t value and appreciate their fathers’…
A Strategy that Works – Big Time!
Do you ever have those sucker-punches that steal the joy right out of you? I do. I’ll admit it! Whether it be just plain old aggravation or some careless thing I did (like putting my keys somewhere that I still can’t find them). Or it is simply dissatisfaction about THIS, THAT or the OTHER. I’m…
TAKE Courage
Daily, I TAKE a good number of vitamins and supplements. I also TAKE myself to the Fitness area to stretch and make use of the equipment there. That’s for this “young body”, but what do I TAKE for my mental and soul well-being? This blog was spurred on when I responded to a friend’s private…

This photo captured my attention. This guy looks like he’s trying to hold it together by standing firm because one move could send him plummeting to who…

Persevere AND stand firm — almost sound like contradictions to each other. Keep going, but unmovable? In this photo is a little desk…
There is no Journey Like the Journey of Faith
This day, 7 years ago, I wrote my first-ever blog. It was the beginning of the faith journey of our lives and I knew God wanted me to live our journey out-loud to document the abiding and constant love that we knew that the Father would pour out on us. We wanted our light to…
Persevere and Stand Firm
That almost sounds like a contradiction, doesn’t it. How can you persevere while you’re standing firm? Persevere sounds like an “action” verb, while Stand Firm seems like a “motionless” verb and adverb. In this photo is a little desk plaque that Mom gave me for Christmas. She said, “I saw it and I just knew…
