  • A Question to Consider!

    A Question to Consider!

    Why am I here? Is this a question you’ve ever asked yourself? As a follower of Christ, we know the answer is “to bring God glory.” That is a correct answer, but there are times when we may be wondering how in the world that is happening! No one wants to admit to having doubtful…

  • Children – Our Example

    Children – Our Example

    “Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.” [Matthew 18:4.] Jesus said these words to his disciples in response to their questions concerning who would be the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. I’m sure they thought his answer was strange. Let’s consider what Jesus is saying to each…

  • Christmas In July

    Christmas In July

    Christmas in July seems like a ridiculous statement to me; however, it has been used over and over again. Where did it come from? The internet has given me the answer. It seems that a girls’ camp in 1933 in North Carolina decided to devote two days in July to the celebration of Christmas. On…

    What You Can Learn At Disney World – Part 3

    Lesson Three – Every generation is important! Families traveling together is a big thing at Disneyworld!

  • Christmas…A Different Feel

    Christmas…A Different Feel

    This Christmas will be a first without a parent for me.  I won’t be sitting next to Dad cutting his meat, or keeping Mom from eating all the chocolates on the table.  My brother will not be offering Dad another glass of tea or giving him another sea salt caramel.  These tasks will be missed…

  • Singing and Remembering

    Singing and Remembering

    My mom loved country music. She used to listen to the radio and sing along with every song they played. I loved my mom so I loved what she loved when I was young. Some of my favorite memories are of us singing together. There were three songs in particular we would sing often. They…

  • God Uses Our Prayers

    God Uses Our Prayers

    How many times have you said, “I’ll pray for you”?  How many times have you walked away from that conversation and forgotten to pray?  If you’re like me, you have forgotten far too often.  One of the ways to prevent that is to pray right then and there with the person.  Another thing you can…

  • Tribute to Richard Pringle

    Tribute to Richard Pringle

    Richard Pringle came into my life as a man my mom began to date.  I remember how he would come over to the flat we lived in and bring a carton of Squirt and a ½ gallon of vanilla ice cream.  This was quite the treat for my brothers, Keven, Mark, and me.  We rarely…
