You leave one closed door only to be met with another. You feel like you are constantly struggling, right? But, I’d wager […]
Most Of All, I’ve Learned
I’ve learned. A lot. And I learn every day and I pray that I continue to learn every day until the day I die. I never, ever want to be at a place where I stop learning. Isn’t that what life is all about? Learning? In my life, I’ve lived, I’ve loved, I’ve lost, I’ve […]
The Best Doctors
Here’s my list for the best doctors in my life. Yes, of course, I believe in medical doctors and, believe me, I have my share of visits, but these are the best “doctors” for everyday healthy living. Prayer-I believe in the power of prayer. I believe it is the greatest force on our planet. And […]

Billy Graham, ‘America’s Pastor,’ Dead At Age 99
Evangelist Pastor Billy Graham, who had a career of more than 70 years, died Wednesday morning, February 21, 2018. He was 99 years old. I’ve heard Billy Graham’s name all of my life. I’ve seen him preach, looked at his life and prayed for him over the last few years. His passing saddens me, but […]

We will work tirelessly to meet the needs of our families, help out friends and co-workers and stay involved with our places of worship and communities. Yet we never take time for ourselves. Rest and self-care are so important. When […]
