Pickin’ Better Battles

Yesterday as I was headed home from church, I mentally visualized my refrigerator and decided to stop in at a sandwich shop for a carry-out lunch. Bopped in and immediately offered service. Decided on the sandwich and toppings and headed towards the cash register. As my server was rolling up my sandwich, I asked if […]

Big Fluffy Clouds

Sometimes things happen in our lives that cannot be reversed. That’s the reason we need to make perfectly sure what we are doing is going to produce the desired results. I realize that often things are beyond our control, and consequently, we change our course of action. We refer to that shift as “going with […]

What’s for Lunch?

Sunday night while watching Norvel Hayes on the God TV channel, my memory raced back to the early days of my Christian walk. I may have been born again one year and was growing with leaps and bounds. A co-worker called and said, “hey Sandra, what are you doing at lunch today?” I responded that […]

Pride Hides

The yard had recently been mowed, just in time for a nice soaking-in rain, which we desperately needed. Leaving for church to meet my prayer group, I noticed a fallen limb in the front yard. Not too big, about 8’ long and about 5” in diameter. I’ll get it and toss it when I return. […]

Angels Among Us

We were meeting in a quaint little town for lunch. My friends had arrived from south Florida. I decided to scoot up early to rummage through a consignment shop with hopes of finding a pair of white capri pants. I had been very successful in this shop before, so my expectations were high. A rack […]

Watch Out, They’re Watching

Today while sharing with some friends about the power of prayer, I remembered an incident that happened nearly 20 years ago that was relative. One in our group said he was not comfortable praying “off the cuff” and certainly not as bold as the other two at the table ~ one being me and the […]

What a Woman

When it was noised abroad among the locals in the hills of North Carolina that Alma had taken down a bear, the response was “Miz Alma, you’re too purdy to be a baar killer.” Indeed she is and indeed she did. This lady gives a deeper dimension to the Proverbs 31 Woman, and seems to […]

Hallelujah!! She’s Lost

The flight home was uneventful. Thankful as she had not flown in 19 years. Lots of changes, but necessary ones since our enemy likes to use airplanes as a fear tactic. Actually the plane left late and arrived early, so - how’s that for the favor of God!!!
Crammed full, lots of race fans returning home […]

Sitting with Sally

This girl just wanted to look at the multi-sliding glass doors that opened on to the pool area. Stefanie called and said any time was good, but they were leaving the following day for a fast pitch softball tournament (runs in the family) and then on to Key West to visit their son, who is in […]

Prayer, What A Privilege

We were headed home after nearly 2 wonderful weeks in the mountains with fabulous family and friends. What a great trip this has been. We spent the last night at the Walker Inn. Frank had told us exactly how to go and where to turn to hit the interstate. Now we’re fairly intelligent, but this […]
