Are You RIGHT or Are You WRONG?
Have you ever been absolutely right about something? I mean, a b s o l u t e l y right! Even though the sun is shining, you carry an umbrella because you just know it’s going to rain. And you’re right, it rains! But what about those days or moments when things seem to unravel, when things become worse than having a bad hair day, when being right doesn’t happen! I felt like that a few weeks ago after a good workout at the gym. I had said goodbye to my friend and turned to open my locker,...

Grown-up Christmas List
Do you remember sitting on Santa’s knee and whispering your Christmas wish in his ear? This picture is evidence that at least I sat on his knee.

I talked to my husband the other day about the different kinds of pain, and we came up...
Read MoreThought-Provoking One-Liners
Sometimes when you watch a movie, listen to a conversation between two people, or sit under the teaching of godly men (as I have done this summer), one-liners often jump out at you that are thought-provoking, often inspiring. And often applicable to where you might be on your life’s journey. For example, I heard this statement in a movie recently: “Each of us needs a good friend to show us the best part of who we are. Everyone has their weaknesses, but also we have a special talent inside...
