When Rock Bottom Turns Out to Be Solid Ground
They say when you hit rock bottom, there’s nowhere to go but up. But what if I told you that rock bottom isn’t the end — it’s the beginning? At a recent Women’s Spring event at my church, I heard the speaker share her story — father walked out, heart broken and many other issues…
Celebrate the Good News!
Don’t you love those words, “Good News”? I remember my early years as a Christian and how difficult it was for me to share God’s “Good News” to those around me. Sure, I did my best to be a reflection of Christ’s likeness in my words and deeds in everyday life, but I wasn’t what…
Nothing can Separate Us from God’s Love
Doesn’t that give us reassurance at the end of a day when we feel less than loved by anyone, including ourselves? God’s love for us is unwavering and eternal. Imagine that! No matter what happens, nothing can destroy our relationship with Him. This truth has the power to transform our lives. Romans 8:38-39 assures us,…
Time Sure Flies
Holy moly! Can you believe it? We’ve already blown through half of this year. Before we know it, we’ll be pulling out our Christmas decor’ and creating gift lists. Remember when we were kids, and time seemed to crawl? Waiting for summer vacation felt like an eternity. I know time is crawling for my grandson…
Step into Spring
Spring begins today, March 19, 2024. Usually, it’s March 20 or 21, but because it’s a leap year, February gets an extra day. The season moves up a little on the calendar. Either way, the first day of Spring is always a little over a week after daylight saving time. But, with all that info,…
We are Messengers
With all the text messaging we do, we can officially declare ourselves “messengers”! We’ve got it down well – just a quick message to announce: “On my way home!” “Running late – home by 6!” “Thx for the info!” “What’s for dinner?” But, today, I’m referring to being “life” messengers because we ARE the message!…
Peace, Goodwill to All Men AND Women
Of course, I am going to blog about peace and goodwill today. And, in so doing, I am sucker-punching the enemy of my soul. I have had way too many reasons to throw in the towel lately than I care to talk about. But you probably know that I can’t help but talk about it.…
Sacred Moments at the Well
Every morning, I’m up and at ‘em by 4:30 am. It’s a must to look over the text of my blog one more time before I hit the “post” button. I’m like clock-work with my daily deliveries – on FB, my Google blogger page and MyPeaceZone.com. I always feel like I’m “reporting for duty” each…
Not What or How, but Who
Ever asked this question? “What would you do?” It might be shouted over the laughter and squeals of children or whispered between tears in a living room. It might be me asking my neighbors about how to get rid of those annoying ants. We might all be looking for answers of some kind. And the…
Just a Jesus Follower
“Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.” Those words were said by the Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 11:1. And, I’ll just ride the coattails of Paul – because those are my words, too! But, it’s more than words…..it is words in action. It isn’t just talking the talk – but also…
