How Beautiful are YOUR Feet?
Let’s be honest. Feet aren’t exactly the stars of the show. Most of us tuck them into shoes, hide them under socks, or hope nobody notices them at the pool. Some feet are knobby, some are crooked, and some look like they’ve walked on gravel roads. But God sees something different. The prophet Isaiah wrote,…
Let the Children Come to Me
Jesus said: “Let the little children come to me!” Big or little — Old or Young — We are His children. Sincerely — I know my age and I know I am not qualified to ride the 12 and under rides. But, I am still riding the joy-of-life bandwagon. Let’s be honest — some folks…
Being Christian-ish
I’ve never watched the show, but I understand “Black-ish” has to do with children who are not fully one race or another and they have cultural issues about their identity. The name of that show made me wonder if we may be “Christian-ish” — not fully all in as Christians and so we have issues…
Let’s Take a Walk
I’ve loved seeing the Easter photos of families enjoying their Easter celebrations – their new Easter clothes, meals together, and egg hunts. My youngest two grands (16 and 18) still hunt for the eggs that their mama “rabbit” hid in their back yard. I know Mama Rabbit’s story – she wants to hold onto the…
Being Careful with Our Walk
A few days ago, while getting my nails done at the salon, a young woman came in with a full cast on her arm. She asked for her gel nails to be removed because of an upcoming surgery. Being the nosey, wanna’-know gal that I am, I asked what happened. She said she fell on…
More Care-Free Lessons from the Birds
I’ve written 2,816 blogs. And I know my most written about subjects (other than my grandchildren) are birds. I’ve written about how annoying they can be like those who kept making nests on my front porch and their droppings were everywhere. I’ve written about the treasured cardinals who made their homes in trees outside my…
Let’s Get in Victory Formation
I apologize up front. I can’t help myself. I must report again on my early morning daily walks in my community that has many water features. My walks seem to open my heart to a greater appreciation for God and His handiwork – the skies, the wildlife, the people passing by. How can I possibly…
Let’s Go for a Walk
The Everleigh monthly calendar where I live is full of activities. I pick and choose those that appeal to me. After all, I have my own activities calendar: writing blogs, intimate devotion times, the fitness center, hanging with my children and grands, encouraging and counseling others. Yesterday was different. A new 9:30 am Walking Club…
Lights Shine Bright Everywhere We Go
Thanks, Toby Mac, for your great song: “Everywhere we go. Lights shine bright. Lights shine bright, everywhere we go.” It must be God’s message to us because this is my second day in a row to emphasize how important it is to let our lights shine. I remember that timeless Sunday School song that went:…
The Right Place at the Right Time
Even though my life is quite ho-hum living in a safe, secure, 55+ community, I still don’t seem to run out of content for my daily blogs. God continually surprises me. Case in point: Early Sunday, 5:30 am, with flashlight in hand, I head out on my morning walk before the warm sun rises. I…
