Wordless Wednesday: New Orleans
Love and Broken Hearts
Life is precious. Why something so obvious needs to be said is beyond my scope of understanding. But it’s true. Humanly speaking, we often take life for granted. We live like today–this […]
Looking for Direction in 2015?
We are all going somewhere. As a matter of fact, our culture is one of the fastest moving in the world. Not only are we driven, but much of the time we […]
Love Lifted Me
It happens often. A song gets stuck in my head and I go to bed hearing it, wake up in the middle of the night hearing it, and think of it first thing in […]
Wordless Wednesday (sort of)
“Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe in Him so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” […]
Changing A Child’s Perspective
“Look! There’s a real farm, just like on T.V.!!” I chuckled at the seriousness of this young man, but was amazed that it was coming from a sincere fourth grader. Wow! I know […]
The Picture of a Know-it-All
It never fails. When I prepare a lesson to teach my sixth graders on Sunday mornings, I ALWAYS LEARN SOMETHING. It’s funny to me that these eleven and twelve-year olds, many that […]
HOLD ON!

Traditions are neither good or bad, per se… Each person chooses what they want to observe in their traditions. We have old traditions and can begin […]
Weekly Photo Challenge: Good Morning!
Before I even roll out of bed in the mornings, I have made it my practice to breathe a short prayer of thanksgiving for each new day. Often just that simple prayer […]
Learning from Our Past
We all have a story. From Parents and grandparents, siblings and friends–to places we’ve been and things we have done–we all have stories that have molded the person we are today. Our […]
Talk about “Coincidence”: Seriously?
I’m struggling. Like many of you, I grieve for the families in Oklahoma and all those connected to them. Life is a woven tapestry of joy and pain and this week has […]
Reflect and Resolve
Every year seems to pass by with things “I intended to do” and didn’t get done. Pictures in Rubbermaids, rooms that need painting, shelves that need cleaning. I’m not REALLY a procrastinator, though I […]
Go Figure…
You really don’t get it until it happens to you… They (who is they?) say you really don’t get it until— –you have kids of your own –you have grandkids …and it’s […]
