Why have a schedule? First there’s your purpose—God’s purpose. I love the impassioned words of the apostle Paul. When he spoke of God, he added these words—”to whom I belong and whom I serve” (Acts 27:23). To whom do you belong, and who is it you are serving today? A schedule helps you live out […]

As summer ramps up with its abundance of activities and demands, I think back to some instruction I once receive from my friend, Julie. Julie created bold and beautiful floral arrangements, and was teaching me how to make my own. Before I learned Julie’s insights into creating an arrangement of beauty, I used to purchase […]

My husband Jim served as an Army Reservist for 30 years and one of my sons-in-law is a career Navy nuclear submariner. Therefore, I have a […]

“Reaching forward to those things which are ahead…” Philippians 3:13 As Paul states in Philippians 3:13, purpose is paramount! I know I can’t do anything, including getting out of bed on time(!), without having a sense of God’s purpose for my life. Knowing my purpose— knowing that I am here to give my life in […]

Anything and everything can be seen as an inconvenience if you want it to be. You can justify and rationalize all day long about why you don’t have time for people.

Moms ask me regularly if such-and-such age is too soon to begin telling little ones about Jesus. And my answer (as you know by now!) is always the same—it’s never too early to start. In fact, may your children never remember a day when you didn’t talk to them about Jesus, your Best Friend and […]

When my two girls were young, I read and saved this anonymous poem and a poignant reminder to me as a mom… A Piece of Plastic Clay I took a piece of plastic clay And idly fashioned it one day, And as my fingers pressed it still, It moved and yielded to my will. I […]
