  • Bad News—No Fear

    Bad News—No Fear

    We have all experienced bad news. At times, it comes when we least expect it. There are times when we do expect it, and it’s still hard to process. I’ve received bad news at various times in my life, most of which I didn’t expect. I was having coffee at a friend’s house when I…

    What You Can Learn At Disney World – Part 1

    I have just returned from the trip of a lifetime made possible by the women of Cornerstone Baptist Church. As I prepared for retirement, the women were pooling their money to send me, cost free to, Disneyworld. It was a surprise that still overwhelms me. I didn’t even have to drive. My friend, Kim, did…

  • Time Flies…Memories

    Time Flies…Memories

    Do you remember how long the years were between 6 and 10 years of age?  I do.  I couldn’t wait to be 10.  Those four years were an eternity to me.  Then I replaced 10 years old with 16 years old.  There was always an age I couldn’t wait be and time moved so slow. …

  • What’s in a Name? I Am! – Part 2

    What’s in a Name? I Am! – Part 2

    Two words we use very often are “I am.”  These words are usually followed by other words describing our role in life or our position in our job or our family heritage.  We say these things so that others will understand us better as they get to know more about us.  There is an identification…

  • What’s in a Name? I Am! – Part 1

    What’s in a Name? I Am! – Part 1

    We were all given a name when we were born by our parents.  They searched and discussed names until they came to an agreement of what to call you.  If you’re like me, then you’ve wondered what made your parents name you what they did.  I asked my mother many years ago the reason I’m…

    The Spiritual Battle: Suffering and Satan’s Devices – Part 4

    THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD HELPS It always amazes me at how quickly I can forget God is with me.  When life’s winds blow in my face, I feel those more than I think of God.  Let’s face it, we are all infallible!  We are not perfect and it shows up the most in the trials…

    The Spiritual Battle: Suffering and Satan’s Devices – Part 3

    PREPARATION FOR THE SPIRITUAL BATTLE How do we prepare for the battle we don’t know is coming?  How do we know what to expect in the midst of suffering?  What are we to do when suffering hits, and Satan tempts us to give up or be angry?  We have established in this series that God…

    The Spiritual Battle: Suffering and Satan’s Devices – Part 2

     Suffering is not an encouraging topic, but one we should talk about as followers of Christ. There is much for us to learn as we suffer in this life.  We can learn more about God and ourselves.  When we’re suffering we can be tempted by Satan to turn from God and trust in ourselves.  He…

  • Sense of Humor? Or Sovereignty?

    Sense of Humor? Or Sovereignty?

    Teaching the Word of God is one of my passions.  I’m very much alive when I’m studying the Word and seeking to impart the information I’ve learned to others.  It’s my privilege to teach, on Wednesday evenings, a group of ladies at our church.  The subject matter may change but the foundation doesn’t.  God has…

    Our Spring Tea was held on March 20th at Cornerstone Baptist Church.  If you were unable to come, the following is the message of God’s grace that was presented. “And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in…
