C.S. Lewis always gets me thinking
God may not be “safe” as far as our human understanding of the word “safe”. I mean…for those of us reading through the Bible this year…think of all we’ve read so far in the Old Testament! Yet—God must truly be very good to send His Son, Jesus, to die for us! Because of THAT, my...
Your Word is Beautiful
Today in my quiet time with the Lord, I had my pen ready, got my journal out, and began to write. I always start by writing the date. So I wrote “Thursday, September 15.” As I sat quietly before the Lord, the thought came to me how for years I always used to read from...
Teach us to number our days
What do you think of when you think of September? For many people the first thoughts are of 9/11 when the unimaginable happened and the unforgettable tragedy took place. It’s eerie how most of us remember exactly where we were, and what we were doing when we heard that airplanes had crashed into the Twin...

Do You Believe in Divine Destiny?
I’ve been thinking about my life and the choices I make–how I spend my time, what I think about, what I do. I believe with all my heart that . . . God has placed you and me on earth, where we live, for His divine plan, for His divine purpose, for such a time...
Simple pleasures of life
by RHONDA ~ When Rex and Luke were growing up, Gary was always ready to play and have fun–evenings, week-ends, vacations (sometimes we’d even have a day where we all played hooky). Gary could make an adventure out of lunch, actually he still can. I remember after he became Deaf, I went back to work...
It’s Been a Treat–This Summer Night
The fireflies are everywhere. Darting here and glowing there. In the yard near the creek. In the grass along the street. The only bug I even like, Is the tiny fly who shines its light. Lord Jesus, this is my daily prayer, To shine Your Light…everywhere!
Memorial Day – We Remember
Two miles from my home is Tinker Air Force Base. As I drive down Air Depot on my way to I-40, right before my turn onto the freeway is a gate onto Base; there is a sign there that reads, “Land of the Free, Made possible by the Brave.” It’s Memorial Day Weekend. Let’s Remember…...
