Guided by Father

Don’t you love it when a plan comes together? I’ve said it so many times before in this little blog, I’m blessed to know so many wonderful people in this world, people with hearts the size of Texas 🙂 . Over the past several weeks as we’ve been finalizing our “Art of Giving” event I’ve…

Satan Despises Prayer

I couldn’t help but start this little blog this morning with major thank yous. Yesterday I asked for some simple prayers and my goodness the text messages, social media messages and phone calls from people, well, let’s just say I felt the prayers and the love! Thank you so much for reaching out and for…

You’re Not Weak

It’s a busy week ahead. We have a very large event on Thursday that I’m overseeing. Each year our church gives grants to local charities in our county. This year we’ve approved grants to 16 charities, and the event Thursday wraps up the grant process and secures the final funds needed for these organizations. It’s…

Message in Music

I’m always impressed with musicians, especially songwriters who can capture a message so effortlessly in their songs. I don’t have a creative brain, so people who have musical or artistic talent, well I’m in awe of them too 🙂 . Me, ya even my stick figures when I draw, don’t look like stick figures 🙂…

Listen

Well, there’s a simple title for today’s little blog. A single word but my, it conveys so much. You all know I spend time each morning before I sit down here, talking with Father. It’s my “check-in” with Him before I start the day. It’s kind of like grounding myself before the day’s business takes over and if I…

It Spreads – Prayer Does

Yesterday as the news broke about the passing of Toby Keith, as we usually do, we began to see posts on social media sending condolences to the family, and lifting of prayers for comfort. What struck me yesterday though, I witnessed much more than those words of comfort. I saw prayers lifted and spreading to others. I’m…

Sing with the Heavenly Hosts

I’ve been a country music fan for as long as I can remember. I’m a fan of the old stuff for sure. Don’t get me wrong, some of the new artists are awesome, I just like the oldies. I shared many little blogs ago that Johnny Cash is actually a cousin on my mom’s side. Maybe that’s where the…

New Day, New Week

Oh yes…the beginning of a new week. We all know the feeling, it usually starts on Sunday evening. You realize, “Where did the weekend go?”. Mondays, in my opinion, have gotten a bad rap. Just because they are usually the first day of the week, usually associated with going back to work after a few days off, you get…
