Easter Is Not Over!

I was thinking to myself today that Easter is over now what, to which I was surprised to hear a voice inside say “No it is not.”  That kind of surprised me.  We  as Christians though have to realize that Easter is not just a day, but a life style.  Jesus died on the cross, [...]

Life at my house!

Oh my, so much has been going on since my last post.   We have been in the heat of high school softball, while Ronnie is coaching the recreation league.  So in saying all of that we have been very busy.  Spring break was this past week and all we really did was spend time at [...]

SCRUB FRUIT!

Not sure if you guys remember or not, but when my older kids were teenagers about 15 years ago actually (man, I am old!), there was a name that they would call anyone that maybe acted different or looked different, and that name was “SCRUB.”
I found out that even Jesus was familiar and used this [...]

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!

Today is Saint Patrick’s Day.  Many do not get into Saint Patrick’s day to much, and many get into it a little too much, if you know what I mean, with all the partying and carrying on.  This makes it hard to understand what Saint Patrick’s Day is and who Saint Patrick was.
Saint Patrick was [...]

Different Views!

I exercise at Curves, and have the pleasure of being around a different group of ladies on a daily basis.  Many who are Catholic or in a denomination that observes Lent, so I am privy to their conversations about this time of the year.  I do not observe Lent, but I am always listening to [...]

Jackson, My Little Cookie Monster!

Today is a special day because it is my grand baby Jackson’s first birthday.  I cannot believe he is one, this year sure has passed by so quickly.  Jackson is so incredibly handsome and so smart.  He is walking very good now, and has already been weaned from his bottle.  I cannot believe how quickly [...]

Spring!

Today we got our  front and backyard cleaned, thanks to Bubba (we will save this for another post).  It really does feel like Spring to me now.  I love the first initial cleaning of the yard, especially the removal of all the leaves (20 bags in the back yard alone), there is nothing like it.  [...]

Philippians 1:29

I wanted to keep on the winter focus for one more post because I started doing a Bible Study on the books Philippians and Colossians by Kay Arthur, and came across this scripture yesterday in Philippians.  I thought it was very interesting and I wanted to share it.  This is it out of The Message [...]

Seasons in Life!

I wanted to take a minute and talk about Seasons in our life, especially in our lives personally and also with ministry.  We,  just like our calendar year experience different seasons.  The only problem is,  that we do not realize we are in a season until it is almost over.  This can be a huge [...]

Thankfulness and Praise Opens the Doors of Heaven!

We talked last night in Lifegroup about Pastor’s message “An Awesome Place.”  We then talked about how do we practice the presence of God.  We try to make God so mystical or so far away sometimes.  God wants to be so close to us and we try to be so spiritual or religious that we [...]
