Everyone is buzzing about the Powerball Lottery, but I didn't buy a ticket. I never do. The ticket in below's photo, is one that someone left behind, on a gas station counter, several months ago. Why? They didn't win. Only one person wins the lottery. That leaves a lot of disappointed people, a lot of … Continue reading Good News! JESUS brings Eternal Winnings for Everyone!

12 Steps to Forgiveness with Boundaries
Have you forgiven someone, only to be accused of harboring unforgiveness, because you’ve had to establish necessary boundaries for healing and protection? If you're feeling guilty about having less contact because of an unhealthy or abusive relationship, the guilt is not from God. God does not want His children to be doormats. How can we … Continue reading 12 Steps to Forgiveness with Boundaries
Raising the Bar in Relationships
Are you a child of God? If you're a child of God, it means you're saved by grace. It means that you receive eternal life, through Jesus, when you ask him into your heart.

Slowing Down with God in a Fix-It-Fast World
Everything is going fast: fast messages, fast replies, fast fixes. We become fast friends, who sometimes find out we jumped in too fast, and need to get out of the relationship…fast. We are fast to start a conversation and fast to comment. We send out fast birthday wishes, and our Christmas photos go out fast, … Continue reading Slowing Down with God in a Fix-It-Fast World
Head in the Sand? Live Truth!
I'll never understand why people choose to leave behind people who really care about them and love them. People would rather stay comfortably blind, living in depression ( based on fear or anxiety, anger, and guilt) pretending to be happy with those who use them, abuse them, and turn their backs on them as soon … Continue reading Head in the Sand? Live Truth!

Oh Christmas Tree… Let YOUR Lights Shine!
The pre-lit Christmas tree promises “lights that stay lit, even if one goes out.” It doesn’t tell the truth. We’re all familiar with stressful holiday preparations. Everyone knows that a dose of irritation is included, for free, in every box of Christmas tree lights! A few years ago, our family purchased a pre-lit, artificial tree … Continue reading Oh Christmas Tree… Let YOUR Lights Shine!
The Greatest Artist…God Knows You…God Loves You
Last week, I had the opportunity to witness one of the most beautiful skies I have ever seen God create with his paintbrush. It went from one extreme to the other, in the span of two hours. My daughter is always the first to notice the beautiful sky, because she loves it as much as … Continue reading The Greatest Artist…God Knows You…God Loves You
10 Thoughts about How God Reveals True Beauty… NOT Society
Everywhere I look, society is insisting that it knows the true definition of beauty. If I didn’t know Jesus, I might fall for the myths too. Is beauty a woman after a makeover, or one who bares her natural face?
