The Perils of Facebook

Social media, and most specifically Facebook (because that’s the one I use), can be the greatest thing since sliced bread.  I mean who doesn’t want to post pictures of their families, cool vacation places, awesome pet videos and funny memes?!?!?!?  A favorite of mine are the videos of people falling down…my guilty pleasure!!!! However, besides […]

Toeing the Line

Living wisely is hard to do.  (In case you didn’t know that!) It’s not that having or attaining knowledge is all that hard, but the humility that comes along with wisdom throws most of us for a loop! I don’t know about you, but I don’t find myself being all that humble very often. In […]

Contagious Encouragement

Listening to Christian radio yesterday as I sped down the highway to get to church on time (there’s something wrong with that), I heard the coolest phrase – Contagious Encouragement. As someone who is all about encouraging others, I found this phrase to be a perfect fit for what I would love to do in […]

Getting Ready

Now that Halloween is over and we are on the road to Thanksgiving, one can only assume that Christmas and New Year’s will be here before we know it. YIKES!!!  It’s the first week of November!  Can you believe it?  Where has 2014 gone?  I feel overwhelmed just thinking about it!!! So, guess what?!?!   I’d […]

Merry Christmas!

Since the next two weeks of my life will be filled with fun, family, friends and the kids on Christmas break, I will be posting only once each week.  I know, I know…you’re gonna miss me terribly!!  HA! HA! Honestly, I can’t contain my excitement because I love this time of year!  There’s nothing better […]

Happy Valentine’s Day!!!

The GEMS We Leave Behind

“Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.’” John 7:38 What color of water flows from your heart?  Is it clear and bright?  Or is it dark and murky? More to the point, if you died today, will others have been blessed because you […]

Don’t Forget Who You’re Dealing with…

Have you ever had a bad day that turned into a week, month, or maybe even a year?  Did you wonder what you had done to deserve such a rotten lot in life?  Or why if you had any luck at all, it would only be of the dreadful sort? Perhaps you’ve never been in […]

Just Call Me Eve

Eve listened to the devil, made the decision to defy God and subsequently caved into sin.  Ain’t that the story of life?!?!  Sigh. Maybe I should change my name to Eve. I’m pretty sure I’m not the only person on the planet that struggles with sin and sometimes loses all self-control when faced with a […]

Stormy Weather

Storms can be frightening, breath-taking or beautiful.  It all depends on where you are standing.  If you are standing under God’s umbrella – you won’t get as drenched by the torrential rains. However, I dare say that many of us are usually caught out on a tree limb hanging out all by ourselves.  It’s no […]
