Being the Answer
Now you are the Body of Christ, and members individually (I Cor. 12:27). Our recent trip to New York City to celebrate my husband Bill’s 50th birthday was nearly perfect. We ate great food; visited art museums and galleries; enjoyed the festivities of the Big Apple…
Be the Answer
And let us not grow weary of doing good… (Gal. 6:9a). “Would you happen to know where the water chestnuts are?” A man’s voice startled me as I fully focused on a shelf of cereal. I turned to see an elderly man bent slightly as he stood…
Everyone Has A Story
His name is Darryl. He told me so, along with some other interesting tidbits about his life. Like his love for our country and how he served faithfully in the armed services. About a specific time that he had the honor of dining with a…

A Visit to ‘God’s Diner’
I’d gone to Haywood 209 Café — a local diner-like establishment — to meet my dear friend Rebecca Lile, who is now a published author. (Yay!) We celebrated her birthday and enjoyed a leisure breakfast — catching up on one another’s lives, especially the release…

I remember a time when I was a child. My family was at Disney World and in line to ride the Jungle Cruise. The line was long, and it was hot. As my younger sister Kathleen and I wove in and out of the turnstiles…
Remembering Our Golden Girl
Remembering our sweet Annabelle, whom we buried by the pond just several days ago — one year after her passing… I’d taken our sweet Annabelle to visit my friend and loving veterinarian Dr. Beth. She’d been acting unlike herself and was having difficulty going potty….
