Hold On - Don’t Give Up!!

Tuesday, April 10th, 2007

Don’t you just love it when our Father takes the time to speak to us, To make Himself known in a way, that we know without a doubt that it is His voice!!
No, I didn’t hear a voice from heaven, nor did an angel appear to me, but my Father did sing to me, […]

Why Write? Why Sing? Why Bother?

Sunday, March 11th, 2007

Sometimes, the hardest time to write, to sing, is when you don’t really feel like it, when you don’t feel anything but yet something within causes you too and the very obedience of picking up the pen, or sitting at the keyboard, as an act of sacrifice, of worship to the Lord, you begin to […]

Don’t Hold Back

Monday, October 16th, 2006

Sometimes we are afraid to write, to share, to open our hearts because we do not know what the response will be.
Wither it will be rejected, laughed at, torn apart or if we are really writing from the heart?
We wonder is what I share important?
Does it really matter in the whole […]

Honest To God!

Thursday, September 7th, 2006

Why are we afraid to be real, to be honest?
Why do we say “honest to God” when we really don’t mean it?
Being honest to God, means telling it like it is!
To admit that we have failed, that we have made mistakes. That we don’t know what to do and we wonder how […]

Memories

Sunday, August 27th, 2006

I just got off the phone with my oldest daughter Gloria in Texas.
Her husband, the grandkids, my former in-laws (I always called them in-loves, because of their love for the Lord and for us), Jodie, my former wife, where all at a friend’s ranch, that my in-laws, are house sitting and I could […]

The Gift of Pain

Sunday, August 20th, 2006

A gift?
Really?
I would have never thought of it as a gift? Then I began to think about it, when my fellow writer Mary Yerkes, ask me if she could use part of a comment that I made in response to her article “What is Christian Art? “
She is teaching a class […]

In The Midst of Tears!!

Saturday, March 18th, 2006

There are some days that everything within me screams out “No more Lord, please no more!” as the physical pain I feel at times rips through my body like a thousand nerves exposed and tears flow.
It is at this time that I realize the price that the Lord paid on the cross for me, […]

Even In The Midst Of The Dark Nights Of The Soul

Monday, December 12th, 2005

It is in the midst of the dark nights of the soul we learn real strength! Strength that is grounded in the Word of God and enables us to stand in spite of all that is going on around us!
In Zephaniah 3:17 we read: “The Lord your God is in the midst of you, […]

Caution, Marriages Really Are Under Attack!!

Wednesday, October 12th, 2005

This is something that I shared on August 9, 2004, on another blog in a comment.
I felt impressed today of the Lord to share it again. It still is not easy to share, though it has been over a year.
I have edited it a little from the original because of events that have taken […]
