As we remember this last week of Jesus’ life on earth, my heart is filled with gratitude for His life and resurrection. Oh, the wonder-working power in the blood of the Lamb! About two years ago, I shared the blog post “Miracles and Memorials”, which is my story about how God was with me when […]
Of all days… On this particular afternoon, I was in a hurry to get home from work. (Actually, that describes most days.) This time, I wasn’t feeling well so it intensified the feeling. I pulled out of the parking garage at work, only to see an 18 wheeler completely blocking the street. This truck was […]
“The more, the merrier!” That’s a common phrase I use, whether I am talking about having people over or I am recruiting help for a major undertaking. Having mentioned the latter, I am reminded of the number of friends and family that helped us in our move from New York to Dallas. Between packing up […]
When our first child was about two years old, I thought I had this parenting thing down. Our son was obedient, orderly, you name it..he was it. And then we had kid # 2. He was cute, charming, well behaved (in public), but behind closed doors…let’s just say, we were worn out! I remember my […]
Last week, I took some time off to clean up my house. Not just a regular cleaning. More like Mari Kondo – declutter, reorganize, vacuum under my dresser kind of stuff. I’m one of those weird people who find it therapeutic. My husband and friends agree that I’m weird but think I should get […]
In the New Testament, we read several incidents where Jesus cast out demons. As He approached these individuals, the demons inside of them would cry out to Jesus by name or identify Him as the son of God, begging for mercy. Mark 3:11 (NLT) tells us that Jesus didn’t even have to approach these demons […]
My father-in-law recently celebrated a milestone birthday. He has been my father for the past ten years, and as we prepared to honor him, I was reminded of the impact he has made on me and our family. When I got married, I not only gained a husband, but I also inherited a second set […]
This week, I am going to give you a peek behind my screen… For the last few months, I have had a hard time hearing from God. Nothing in my life has really changed- I still have my quiet time in the morning. I still have my worship music blasting in my car. I’m not back […]
I remember when my boys were little. There were days I felt more like a referee than a mom. My little one was usually the instigator, egging his big brother on (see pic above). But it takes two to tango. Right? So, when it looked like there was no end in sight, I’d step in. […]
Dallas isn’t known for its seasons (unless you count “cold” and “very hot”) but every year around this time, something really beautiful starts to happen. Trees that were barren start coming to life again. I drove by these particular trees recently and couldn’t help but notice the contrast. One looked like it was still winter, […]
Badge Access
I work in a building that requires badge access. If I don't have my badge on me, it makes for a long day because everywhere I go, I need someone to help me get in.
