Along with snowflakes and butterflies, I also love music – all different styles of music. However, I must say that opera and country take more effort on my part to enjoy. But, they are beautiful in and of themselves as well. I have learned that country music and jackhammers don’t go together so well though! [...]

“God designed us to be walking and talking ‘rivers of life-giving water.’ Everywhere we go, each word we speak, all the deeds of our lives, are lived in the shadow of the cross and energized by the Spirit of God and intended to bring life and light to those still in darkness. How is your [...]

As I was reflecting on all the events of this week a hymn that we used to sing when I was small came to my mind. I imagine its been 35 years since I last sang this song. When I found it on the internet, I was amazed at just how rich the words of [...]

One day years ago Momma called me with an infectious excitement in her voice. She loved God’s creation. That day she had seen a red-headed woodpecker in the yard. She was SO excited that when she was telling me what she had seen she got her words for red-headed woodpecker all jumbled and it came [...]

I received a phone call about a month ago that was one of those things you wish you would have had an opportunity to record. It went something like this:
“Hi, Aunt Sis.”
“Hi, Sweetheart, what are you doing today?”
“I’ve been eating my cereal.”
“Oh, Ok. Was it good?”
“Yes. Guess what I did today, Aunt Sis?”
“I don’t know, [...]

I just love the way God works! To realize that He has been at work in a given situation, to me is like finding the caramel-covered chocolate in a chocolate assortment. It’s been there all along just being what it is, and then when I taste it, it is the most delightful pleasure. I know in an [...]

Momma and me. Wow… you gotta love those bangs!
Dad and me. Can’t you just tell I was going to be his right hand mechanic?
Oh, and you can tell by the era of the pictures, can’t you, that I truly am only 26??
