It has been a while since I wrote so I decided today was the day. This is short but I think it will help us put things into perspective in light of living through one of the strangest times in America. I find myself falling into sadness, anger, frustration and worry when I walk out… Continue reading Don’t Forget

My sister sent me this picture on her desk and said this... "I have this on my table to remind me to speak strength and truth into my students each day!" I felt so honored and I thought I should repost this blog today for those of you who just might need a little encouragement.… Continue reading There Are Things In Life

We've never been where we are today.  It's worrisome, frustrating, and tedious.  When I watch a movie, the greatest part is when the good guys win.  I hold onto the fact that I know the good guys do win in the end of this earthly story...that sustains me and holds me securely. Honestly, I always… Continue reading Persecution

Think of that. When I saw that phrase in a devotional I realized that is exactly what I do, I monitor God’s responsibilities. I get on my knees and pray telling God that I know He is in control and that I trust Him. Why do I then get up, walk away, grab my keys,… Continue reading Stop Monitoring God’s Responsibilities

I couldn't sleep. When this happens I know the Holy Spirit is waking me up to pray and seek His face. I am so heavy-hearted for our country and world in the lostness and evil that prevails. It is easy to see that we are in a spiritual battle. I felt the Holy Spirit calling… Continue reading Send revival

It has been a wild weird few months with this virus and quarantine. I have a hard time walking through this without stress.  It seems more than anything else our freedoms seems to be at risk and that bothers  me.  I need to dwell on God's word and thought maybe you might need this as… Continue reading Let Christ Rule Your Heart

  As I was spending time in the word this morning, this devotion came up in my reading. Cataclysmic isn’t a word we use every day. It did seem appropriate for this time in which we find ourselves. I thought it was spot on to what we all might be feeling on this spring morning.… Continue reading Cataclysmic

It’s Valentines Day again and we got to spend it with our grandkids. It’s easy to love the ones who love us back. Isn’t that a wonderful feeling to love and be loved? To hear the words, “I love you” and see the truth behind the words is the warmest, fuzziest warm fuzzy of all.… Continue reading Love Day

  Much has changed since I last wrote a blog.  We left our Kentucky family and moved to our Oklahoma family.  Transition is exhausting!  We moved into a rent house until we can decide where we what to buy...so we are still in transition.  It takes a while to figure it all out.  Our grandchildren… Continue reading Transition is Exhausting

When we were growing up, my brother would wrap all the Christmas gifts. He took painstaking effort to make each one special. Before we ripped right into the gift he would say, “Stop, notice the wrapping!” We stopped in mid air and looked adoringly at the box and would say, “ahhhhh.” Since then, I’ve always… Continue reading The Wrap Up
