Are You a Lion Player or Lion Slayer?
I’ve been thinking a lot about David, the shepherd boy. He loved God so much. He spent a lot of time with his sheep. He knew them and he knew their enemies. He protected them when he killed the lion and the bear AND the giant. He had the incredible ability to conquer those “normally”…

Great Granny = Sweet Memories
Day 66 of Photo Inspirations — Great Granny = Sweet Memories When my kids come back to Tulsa, paying a visit to Great Granny is always on the itinerary! I loved it, yesterday, when we stopped by to see her. Payton and Alexia will be in a 3-Day Speech & Debate Competition starting next…
School of Hard Knocks
Many of us went to, and even graduated from the School of Hard Knocks. I’ll never forget how smart my husband and I thought we were starting out in life — so very young and inexperienced. His dad tried to counsel us on so many things and offer his sound advice and wisdom to us.…

Cherish the Moments
A few years ago, I received my daily “check-in” call from Staci while she was picking up Payton and Alexia from school. In the background, I heard Alexia say, “Payton, that’s my side!” Payton responded, “It’s my turn to sit on that side!” Then Alexia, “Mommy, Payton pushed me!” Then Payton, “She pushed me first!” Before…
CEO of my Business — CEO of my Life
My tip of the day…..there’s no greater way to begin a new day and week than to have a meeting with the CEO of our business — especially with the desire for success in every way! My CEO is God, my Heavenly Father. Through the years of having early morning commitments, my body just naturally…

We’ve talked about the “ripple effect” and the trickle down effect, but God wants to release a “flood effect” of His power into our lives like we’ve never seen before. This means we may have difficulties that look extremely large, obstacles that appear impassable, or dreams that seem unattainable. But when God releases a flood…
