No Prayer is too Small for our Lord to Handle
Prayer has unbelievable benefits to us, even when we’re just praying about a lost set of car keys or finding our cell phone. Praying for the little things, as well as the big things, helps us to acknowledge our dependence on God. When we become so self-sufficient that we don’t leave room for God’s ideas,…
MY Way on the Highway?
Remember the folded up maps we once used when we headed out for road trips? I loved being the navigator! Those maps, and I, most certainly kept us right on course to get to our destination faster. And, that was important, because we didn’t do a lot of dilly dallying when it came to road…

Our Great Roller Coaster Ride
I’ve always loved the thrill of the craziest, wild rides at amusement parks. Maybe that’s why becoming a private pilot was no big deal for me.

This is Ron, my fit, strong, healthy, optimistic, husband, best friend and lover for over 43 years. And the other one in the photo is me, Donna (aka Mom and Nana — to a wonderful son and daughter and six precious grandchildren).
