Do you wake each morning thanking God for another day? Do you see the sun shining, see His creation turning so green, and hear the birds singing? I know we are all stuck at home these days, but have you thanked God for just one more? Many songs have been written about having another day.… Continue reading Another One

If … then…
These days we see and hear a lot of quotes on Facebook and other social media . One of them is the saying, “If God brings you to it, then He’ll bring you through it.” And I believe it is true. But what if He didn’t bring me to it? What if it was my… Continue reading If … then…
Holding Its Breath
As some of you may know, we moved to a new house and city on New Year’s Day. We have several options for our old house where we lived for almost 15 years and raised our girls. Right now that house is sitting empty. We’ve done some work on it to improve the looks and… Continue reading Holding Its Breath
Treasured Possession
There are many things in this life we consider treasures. Perhaps like me you have some jewelry from ancestors passed down to you that you treasure. When I look at those pieces, I remember why I treasure them. They make me smile and feel good. They remind me of someone who impacted my life by… Continue reading Treasured Possession

Relax
“If God gives such attention to the appearance of wildflowers—most of which are never even seen—don’t you think he’ll attend to you, take pride in you, do his best for you?

Lost
When I was young my mom would take us to The Commissary in Nashville to shop. I remember loving to go there where they had clothes racks we could hide in and run around. But I also have vivid memories of getting ‘lost.’ Funny how when you are a kid, you think you’re lost sometimes.… Continue reading Lost
Yes, but…
Yes, I am a sinner. Yes, I do wrong things each day. Yes, I am not who I should be to myself and other people. Yes, I complain. Yes, I let fear win. Yes, I am negative. Yes, I do not always show my joy. Yes, I let the bad things in this world get… Continue reading Yes, but…
