Jars hold things: coins, buttons, nails, and sometimes pickles. Jars were made to keep them, to keep them from getting scattered or in the case of pickles to preserve them. But the students in your class or not jars…and the seed you bring to your class each week is not for collecting or hoarding. It […]
Grandbabies are so wonderful. Our conferences allowed us to spend a few days with our youngest granddaughter. Papa is famous for his Saturday breakfast and Keira had her first. Here she is helping Papa put the whop biscuits on the pan to go into the oven. You know what a whop biscuit is don’t you? You take a […]
This year is Leap Year and today is Leap Day. It’s an extra day. You just can’t let this day get by without taking a leap. Ladies, I don’t recommend that you run off and propose to someone, especially if you haven’t seen them since last Leap Day! But I do recommend that you take a leap- […]
Don’t do it! You’ll pay dearly for it. Maybe it was part of the ritual of growing up in the deep south. I guess that’s as good a reason as any other that I might give. I knew better, but I still did it. I don’t know why it would even be tempting, that big […]
Have you ever thought of hiring a personal trainer? One hour of watching “The Biggest Loser” leaves me with mixed feeling on the subject. If you remember from the shows, they really push those people! All that screaming and pushing them to keep going would overwhelm me or is that just TV??? Yet, the trainers […]

We go to the doctor when we get sick. We go to the faucet or the refrigerator when we get thirsty. Desperation is […]
Most months just fly by, but not January. I am one of many people that has been fasting in January. While I have NOT gone on a total fast, it’s been a modified Daniel fast. On the “Fasting Scale” of impressive fasts, it wouldn’t mean much to most believers, but it’s been challenging for me. […]
School bus. Don’t forget to pray for teachers, students, children and/or our educational system when you see a bright yellow school bus. A bus driver recently made the national news for his erratic and reckless driving. Children on the bus called their parents, who in turn called the police. He was issued a DUI, driving while under […]
A personal trainer! I’m not sure who is training whom in this picture! It looks as if the dog thinks he’s the trainer. Just look at that smile on his face. Have you ever thought of hiring a personal trainer? One hour of watching “The Biggest Loser” leaves me with mixed feeling on […]
I needed to make a decision. Every time I thought about the situation I prayed. For weeks I prayed. Fear and dread began to grip me and still I prayed. One day I listened to what I was saying. I heard myself praying, “Oh, Lord. I don’t know what to do. Please help me, Lord, […]
The highest privilege ever afforded to man is the power of prayer. …then why don’t we pray? The right to talk to the highest potentate in all the universe… …then why don’t we pray? The most powerful force accessible to man is the potential of prayer… …then why don’t we pray? The greatest longing in […]
Have you ever received a gift that really shocked you and not in a good way either. I mean one so bad you thought “What were they thinking?” or “What in the world is this?” All you could say was, “You shouldn’t have. Really! You shouldn’t have!” Or if you’re from the South, like me, […]
