Today, Do you hear ME?
When we become Christians, the Holy Spirit comes into our lives to guide us and teach us God’s truths. We need to have our spiritual ears open to hear the voice of God. During prayer, I have often asked God to direct me in an important decision. God may not answer me that day, but…

Today, Rest in the Lord!
Sometimes we need to slow down. Our Christmas was wonderful, with three of our four kids home and all the grandchildren. I had been extremely busy preparing for our celebration, and I must admit, I was exhausted. But God, in His wisdom, knows when we need a rest. I came down with a severe chest…

Today, I Choose LIGHT!
In creation, God first said, “Let there be light.” And there was light.God saw how good the light was. Then God separated the light from the dark and called the light “day” and the darkness he called “night.” God calls us to be light in the darkness. We are called to shine our light on…

Today, I Choose to Serve the Lord!
Remember the Bible verse, “What profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his soul?” I have pondered on that verse for years. It is so true! Is it worth it to have all the wealth, power, and prestige in this world but end up burning in the fires of hell? Absolutely…

Today, I Choose Laughter!
Laughter is good medicine and a gift from God, and God loves a merry heart. Once, when I was getting ready for work, a popular Christian song played over and over in my head for several minutes. When I got into the car to drive to work, I turned on the radio, and that song…

A Belated Merry Christmas to All!
May God’s peace and Blessings be with you all. Our kids and grandchildren were here from Arizona, Duluth, MN, and Iowa. I felt so Blessed to have my family around me.
