Thy will – Not Mine
There are still mountains to climb – trails to forge – goals to be accomplished. So much to do before the earth consumes my flesh and I return to it. Where was this fire, this desire and zeal to serve … Continue reading
WHITER THAN SNOW
Moon beams sift through pines on fallen snow. Light sufficient to find the way back home. A heavy load weighs on resistant ice below. Weight of the world upon that glistening dome. The tree of life stands firmly in its … Continue reading
SETTLE DOWN AND ENJOY THE SEASON
Today, many Americans will hit the stores in search of amazing “bargains.” Many will have completed their Christmas shopping in one day. Many will get into fist fights over those same deals or tear their hair out if they’re too … Continue reading
LORD OF THE HARVEST
How can I thank you, Lord, for all you’ve done for me? Your perfect love surrounds me and sets my spirit free. You’ve taken all my sins away. You cleanse my heart both night and day. I come without one … Continue reading
GIVE THANKS TO THE LORD!
As pies bubble in our ovens and all sorts of treats are prepared for the big feast – we join in thanksgiving for the bounty in our lives. We may even bring a meal to someone in need or take items to a … Continue reading
FLAMES OF PROTEST
Burning in the night – a blazing image of protest. Flames lick the sky as people chant and cry. Voices screaming for vengeance – hearts broken. A life lost – another saved – an angry crowd. God tells us that … Continue reading
THANK YOU, LORD!
I’m thankful for my life, though I don’t always say it. It sometimes takes a special day to coax words out and pray it. I thank God for His Only Son, who came to bring me life; I’m grateful for … Continue reading
COURAGE
1 Corinthians 16:13 “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. “ In ancient days, gladiators were men of great courage. They risked their lives every week in the Colosseum as they fought valiantly against raging lions … Continue reading
TIME IS RUNNING OUT!
For the past eight months I’ve wakened early to write a new post for my blog. I’m not getting any younger and feel an urgency to express my gratitude to God for what He’s done for me. It took me … Continue reading
CAMELOT

HEAL OUR NATION!
I was only 21 years old – full of hope and promise – planning a wedding – ready to start a new life. It was a wonderful time to be alive. Americans were living in a self-proclaimed “Camelot” with a … Continue reading
WE NEED TO CALL ON THE LORD!
We look at the things occurring in our world today – many times with hopelessness and apathy. We think we are powerless to do anything so we give up. Is this the spirit our nation was founded on? What if … Continue reading
“NO MAN IS A FAILURE IF HE HAS FRIENDS”
Isn’t it great to know that God has sent His own angels to protect us each day? I have spoken about my angels and the shape they must be in by now. I have given all of them a run for … Continue reading
SNOW WHITE
I never thought of white as my favorite color. All shades of blue and green and some shades of red or brilliant yellow are more my choice. White is the color of milk and those fluffy cumulus clouds that float … Continue reading
SURPRISE!
Have you ever been totally surprised by something? You might be delighted, terrified, special, overcome, or even unworthy of such attention. Surprises can be fun when they’re encased in a special box – when they come from far across the country … Continue reading
IN EVERYTHING, GIVE THANKS!
Americans will soon sit down to a sumptuous dinner and feast on foods served only on special occasions. As we fill our tummies with goodies, let’s try to focus on those who don’t have such bounty. Maybe you are faced … Continue reading

The time is drawing near. Our battle soon is done. Our world no longer here, but with God’s only Son. So let us now prepare for pastures green and calm. Lift up our hearts in cheer and hold us in … Continue reading
GIVE THANKS!
Most Americans celebrate Thanksgiving in eleven days, but we’ll do so today. Being Wisconsin natives, we have done so for the past fifty years. In that state, the week of Thanksgiving is devoted to hunting – not turkeys, but the … Continue reading
TO GOD BE THE GLORY!
There are moments when my confidence wanes – when fear gets in the way of the things that need to be said or done – when trepidation steps on my backbone – when My tongue gets tied into knots and words … Continue reading
YOU CAN DO THIS!
Today ten of my students will participate in a forensics meet with teams from other Christian schools in the area. Forensics is just a fancy word for public speaking. This is something I wish would have been available to me … Continue reading
