Daily Walking with God
One concert you DON'T want to miss!
And the multitudes were standing, looking for his return. The crowd went wild with clapping, hollering, whistles, and great joy filled the place when he finally returned. You may think this is a scene out of the Book of Revelations, but nope. However, I did think...
Daily Dose
The past few mornings I have felt the strong need to pray for Jesus to consume me, wash over me, make me more like Him, and to use me for His glory. I needed Him! God is like a drug. A good one! More years ago than I can remember, I was diagnosed with...
Sun to Son
You know when I saw this box of note cards in the checkout line at a department store I just had to get it. And you know that when I read it I automatically change the saying to “Always Let The Son Shine On You”. Just one little letter makes a big difference....
Why all the running?
The other day we were at the beach. (Shocker, I know, but true.) The water was crystal clear and looked so refreshing. People were in the Atlantic and lying all around on their towels and in their chairs. Music playing, children laughing, and conversations were...
Selective Sight?
Oh, my Holly. Gotta love her. She has one main chore to do around the house…fold and put away the laundry. Bless her heart, around our house, that’s almost a daily chore. The other morning, before she left for school, I reminded her (as I often have to do for some...
Feel free to leave a comment for Laura
Today marks the two year anniversary of a good friend and an inspiration to many passing through the Pearly Gates. He fought the good fight for sure! I posted this link on Facebook and received comments about him. When I shared the comments with his wife, Laura,...
Smack Sin
*Smack*!! This morning when I went into the restroom to get ready for the day I heard a buzzing sound. Oh that all too familiar sound of the dreaded mosquito. I stopped, looked around without movement, went to glance in the mirror to see if I could see this...
Secure Yourself
“You shall not steal.” Exodus 20:15 Period. Why? Because God said so. Tonight while my niece was celebrating family members at a ceremony, someone else was doing some new found celebration of their own. Some idiot broke into her fiancé’s truck and stole her purse. ...
Praying through it all
In life we have instances or see situations that we may think are comical at first. But then we realize the seriousness of it all, and it’s not a laughing matter. I experienced and witnessed an occasion such as this today. When I realized that what was going on was...
Who do you have to hold on to?
Well, yesterday I started my journal enjoy by saying, “Oh what a night!” This entry will start with the saying…“Oh what a day!” When I woke up this morning God put the song in my mind, “I got on my knees and cried Holy. Holy is His name.” So I turned onto my knees...
A Night of Memories with Friends
Oh what a night! With Hank Williams, Jr. and old country music tunes playing in the background, stories pouring out more than whiskey in an old western saloon, and watching and listening to about a dozen old friends reminisce about memories with their buddy,...
Three Precious Angels
Ding-a-ling-a-ling. Ding-a-ling-a-ling. Ding-a-ling-a-ling. That’s the sound of three bells ringing in the past two days. Remember in the movie, “It’s a Wonderful Life” when Zuzu Bailey said, “Every time a bell rings an angel gets its wings.”? Well, in a twenty-four...
