Precious in HIS Sight
by Rhonda Barrett ~ Gary and I are in Oklahoma having a wonderful time with our family. We flew into Oklahoma City last week and headed south to the cobblestone town of Medicine Park located in the beautiful Wichita Mountains. Our son, Luke, his wife Angela, and their four girls make their home in Medicine […]
God used Billy Graham
by Rhonda Barrett ~ Gary and I got married because of a Billy Graham Crusade that was on TV March 1974. Millions of people have their own stories about the impact that Billy Graham (November 7, 1918-February 21, 2018) and his ministry has had on their lives. Billy Graham has gone home to […]
Word-rocks hurt and crush the spirit
by Rhonda Barrett ~ The person recklessly slung word-rocks (hurtful words) at the child. And it wasn’t words like “precious”. The words were meant to put down and belittle the child. When a child is called words of “worthless”, it makes a child feel hopeless. What would cause a person to talk […]
God was waiting for me
by Rhonda Barrett ~ The first day of 2018, I was laying in bed…waking up. I could sense the Holy Spirit drawing me like a magnet, a gentle magnet, wooing me to my prayer closet. I sat up in bed and whispered, “I am coming.” I got out of bed, wrapped my bathrobe […]
Ahhhhh HOME! Is that what You’re looking forward to, Lord?
by Rhonda Barrett ~ CHRISTMAS––A time to remember and celebrate what God has done for us! In John 1:12 it reads, “… all who receive Him (Jesus), to those who believe in His Name, He gives the right to become children of God.” John 1:12…is WOW! The Son of God has made me […]
Empty nest-makes room for more of God’s best
by Rhonda Barrett ~ EMPTY. Empty Nest. Gary and I didn’t notice it…when all our family lived in Oklahoma or when we lived down the street from one of our sons and his family in Florida. But since moving to Washington State…we’ve felt it. Empty Nest. It has taken a while to get used […]
Director of the dance of life
by Rhonda Barrett ~ It was a glorious Sunday, September 17. All day I continued the DARE of listing ONE THOUSAND GIFTS that I am thankful for; GIFTS–love gifts–from Abba Father. I wrote them in my Joy Journal. One word (I realized) I kept using again and again––dance. I have chosen a few of […]
Just a text message…made a BIG difference!
by Rhonda Barrett ~ I have been struggling to write this month’s Precious in HIS Sight. I shared my heart with Gary and he encouraged me, “Remember all of the people through the years who have told you they’ve been blessed by your Precious letter and the Calendar each month?” Awww, yes, I remember––I […]
I accepted the “One Thousand Gifts” DARE
by Rhonda Barrett ~ In one month so much has changed. No, the circumstances have not changed (Rex, Luke, their wives and our six grandchildren still live thousands of miles away) but God is changing me! I’m so thankful! In a way it surprises me –– what God is using to change me. […]
Sometimes I miss my family so much it hurts so much
by Rhonda Barrett ~ I am missing my family more than words can express, and I know that there is so much that I am missing in their lives. Through the years our little family has grown from FOUR to TWELVE! I love my family! Rex and his family live in Oklahoma; […]
