He Colored My World

Back in the day when I was young, there was this song that I loved to dance to at our high school dances. It was called “Colour My World” by a very popular group at the time – Chicago. I don’t know what it was about it, but it always made my heart feel loved […]

Thy Will Be Done

PRAYER. Do you believe in it? If so, are you truly giving Jesus room to answer you the way He wants to, or are you only willing to accept the answer that you want? Thy will be done, Lord. Less of me, and more of thee…. Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. Colossians […]

I believe in you

Whenever I find myself complaining or worrying about something, all I have to do is turn on the news to put life into perspective. There’s a lot of people suffering in our world – some I know and others I’ve never met. One thing’s for sure, I can’t begin to relate to the fear those […]

Are you a control freak?

I had the worst day a couple days ago. It involved one frustrating thing after another. I was scheduled to have a heart scan to see if I have the beginning of a blockage. This was scheduled TWO months ago. That’s how backed up our hospitals are. My husband volunteered to go with me, even […]

Color

A couple weeks ago, friends from our church gave us a lovely house warming gift from their home – cone flowers. I watched as she carefully dug them up after a good rain. I couldn’t wait to plant them in our flower garden. They were special of course since they came from a friend, and […]

Count with Me

After many delays, we finally flew home from Dallas late last night. I had the window seat. Although that’s normally my preference, I was a little anxious after learning that my husband had to sit a few rows back. It’s not that I mind flying. As a matter of fact, I tend to relax as […]

Trust

One of the BEST moments for me after I meet someone’s child (who is around toddler age ) is when he or she finally feels comfortable enough to make eye contact with me and then next — cracks open a smile. However, the most exhilarating moment is when that little one r e a c […]

Do you see the good in life?

I know most of you don’t know me, and If I had to describe myself, I guess the positive side is that I normally try to find the good in life situations and in people. I really don’t think it’s that difficult, although there’s been a few situations when I struggled to see the purpose, […]
