It’s time for the 1st Moments 2 Meditate Challenge. Last month I sent out a challenge to add scripture in your home in a creative way here. The time has come for us to share how we each accomplished our challenge for Chapter 1 in “Trusting God When Life Gives You Crap“. I am so… Read More
We made it to Birmingham on Thursday and have spent the most precious time with our good friends Rex and Diane Wadsworth. We have known them since our days in Fort Worth, Texas. We guessed we’ve been friends for almost 22 years. We just adored spending time with them and talking over hot coffee. Diane… Read More
In January I usually look for a verse for the year. This year I didn’t want the verse the Lord kept putting in my path. No really. I’m sad to say I actually told God–“I don’t really want that verse, can you please give me something else???” So I haven’t focused on it like I… Read More
When I was completing one of my student teaching rotations in college, I was introduced to the music of a folk singer named Raffi. He sang fun songs for younger children and one of my favorites was You Gotta Sing. The song speaks of doing what the Spirit tells you to do and was based… Read More
“I didn’t even know it needed to be done until I see it now—and Wow! It’s just beautiful.” One of my daughters said that to me over the weekend after she saw the completion of one of our latest projects around the house. We recently gave the wall our television is on a “makeover”. We’ve… Read More

It seems like everywhere I turn these days–that is the message from the Lord–“be faithful in the little things.” The sign at the store seemed to take it a step further by saying . . . while you are being… Read More
A year ago on January 24, 2020 our doctors at Mayo gave me the prognosis of 1 year to a year and a half before this ovarian cancer would win the battle. Well–we are now past the one year mark! Woo Hoo! And not even appearing to be headed in the need for hospice anytime… Read More
Last week I announced a way to let your voice be heard in the year 2021. Click here to read the blog with the information. That’s right, I’m sharing my space again–but this time only once a month, unless I have an overwhelming response. The deadline for February’s submission is February 3rd. If you have… Read More
What a fitting way to end the year! My guest blogger is someone I have spent a WHOLE BUNCH OF 2020 with–my editor and friend Shea! Of course, we have spent this time via text, phone calls, and endless word documents through email because she lives in Texas and I’m in Georgia. We have shared… Read More
