HOSANNA
I have worked as a church secretary for seventeen years, and I have experienced some mountaintop highs and valleys low. There have been moments that broke my heart and others that caused my heart to sing. You see and hear a lot behind the scenes. King Solomon wrote...
Are You Willing?
The doctor came into the room and sat down with 10-year-old Marcus. Marcus was an active little boy who was a joy to his parents, sister, and teachers. He was active in church and always helped other students with schoolwork. Marcus was outgoing and had no trouble...
IMPERFECTLY PERFECT
In a world that constantly pressures us to be flawless, it's easy to feel like we fall short. But God's Word reminds us that perfection isn't what God calls us to—He calls us to faith, growth, and trust in Him. Our imperfections are not mistakes; they are...
Consider the Lilies
I’ve never cared much for flowers. They smell like a funeral home, they are hard to keep alive, and they are pretty expensive. I’ve never had a favorite flower or wanted my husband to gift them to me or plant them in our yard. It’s not that I didn’t like them, but I...
Who Do You See?
When we see as God sees, we are in a position to love as He loves. Lord Jesus, help me to see beyond the circumstances to the heart. Move me to love deeply and show me how I can help.

Rejoice
Rejoice in the LORD always, I will say it again: Rejoice! Philippians 4:4 Being a child of the '80s generation, I fondly remember many things about my childhood. I remember growing up in a church that had an AWANA program and We Sing Bible songs. I can almost taste...
The Desert Experience
The desert. It might not be your first choice for your next vacation getaway or a short weekend trip. Most people think the desert is full of things like scorpions, rattlesnakes, intense heat, and dry vast areas without water. Partially true, but yet our Creator can...
Hearts of Love
When an old dog needs to learn new tricks, the puppies sometimes lead the way. At 18 months old, my youngest granddaughter Callie was curious when the smallest crumb left on the kitchen floor became a tasty treat or a play toy. She often imitated barks from her dogs,...
Live in the Moments
I just watched the sweetest "love story" movie! One of the last lines said, "In the moments of life, good and bad, just live life!" Very few days in this life are utopian days, and many days are ordinary days. Then, there can be very hard days that knock the breath...
