Remembering 9/11 Interview
9/11 is a day we will never forget. Remembering where we were, who we were with, and what we were doing. What about you? Can you give an account as to your whereabouts on September 11, 2001? Today, I had the privilege of interviewing and reminiscing with a dear...

Farewell Chama
Adios, New Mexico! The Timbers at Chama has served Tim and I well this past week. Thank you! We ended our last evening by watching the sunset from the mountain top (Rhonda’s Mountain), a fabulous local flare meal, and great conversation with new friends. God didn’t...
Give Me Five
Life goes by so fast. We often busy ourselves with our “list” of things to do in life, that we miss the opportunity to simply Be Still, breathe slowly, and clear our mind. He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be...
Harvest Day
Call it luck or what you may, but I call it a prayerful blessing! First of all, when Tim woke early the first morning of this elk hunt week, he, another hunter (“Doc”), and their guide (Jesus) had just gotten situated in their desired location. Within the first...
Good Morning…Be Filled with Giddiness
The Lord’s unfailing love and mercy still continue, fresh as the morning, as sure as the sunrises. Lamentations 3:22-23 Tim and I are out in northern New Mexico being quite spoiled by the sweet folks here at The Timbers at Chama (http://thetimbersatchama.com/)....
There is Power in His Name
For the past month, I’ve passed a simple sign in the front of a country church that simply says, JESUS. When I read that name, comfort washed over me, and the thought of “when you don’t know what to say, just say Jesus” came into my mind. Glory! Y’all, His name is...
Happy Labor Day
In all the work you are given, do the best you can. Work as though you are working for the Lord, not any earthly master. Colossians 3:23 Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you....
Glory in the end!
We have sufferings now, but these are nothing compared to the great glory that will be given to us. Romans 8:18 Last night, Tim and I went to have dinner with Holly. When we took the above photo, they joked with me about “Watch out, we just may find ourselves...
Are we the same?
When I read this morning’s scripture, God nudge me on a few things. The bible verse of the day comes from Galatians 3:28: Now, in Christ, it doesn’t matter if you are a Jew or a Greek, a slave or free, male or female. You are all the same in Christ Jesus. First of...
The Awe and Wonder…through a child’s eyes.
Here at the Shuff home we thoroughly enjoy our summer. Friends often see me in town, stop me, and say, “Hey, what are you doing here?” I must laugh and agree with them. Although we do like to travel and play on the boat, when we are home I LOVE to take on my role as...
