THIS JOY STORY has a lesson for women, and yes, for men too. Do you think I can relate loving and wearing lipstick to growing in Christ? I can! Just read on…   YES, I LOVE WEARING LIPSTICK… Right now I am not because I’m using a teeth whitening solution. When I’m done with that for the day my lips will be especially dry. Thank God for lipstick! I’ve been wearing lipstick since I was in my twenties. I never…..

  TO MY BELOVED ISRAEL I pray this daily with you, my brethren:   Deuteronomy 6:4-9 Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.  These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts.  Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as…..

What if she doesn’t want to die before her time? What is she wants to get out (of her mother’s womb) and see the world? What if she wants to grow, be nourished, and fulfill the plans God has for her?               SAVE OUR BABIES!   Psalm 139:13-16 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful,…..

PLEASE STAY WITH ME IN THIS CRUCIAL TEACHING: it is a Joy Story! SUICIDE IS A VERY HORRIFIC THING… it is never the answer. Years ago I have had the privilege of counseling two men separately on this always relevant subject. Thank God both of these men, both past their thirty’s, listened to my wise counsel. All glory to God! I am thankful they listened to me because I love the Lord and listen to Him, He guides me and…..

I love you Lord! I praise Your name!   The devil is a defeated pain!               Revelation 20:10 And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

My husband is a regular Bob Hope! I just found out he turned on the air conditioner and set it at 73! It’s only 65 outside: this day September 23, 2021…   But then again, he found a potato on his pillow so he wouldn’t forget to bake them!

A VERY COMMON PHRASE I HEAR from people, even including some preachers, is: “We need God more now than ever.”  I don’t beg and I never differ. God’s written Word is the Bible. There is no compromise. Therefore, man has needed God from the beginning of Adam and the need we all have for Him will never end. Selah. The Scriptures below represent a saint:   Isaiah 50:7-9 Because the Sovereign Lord helps me, I will not be disgraced. Therefore have I set my…..

YEARS AND YEARS AGO when my children were very young, a couple came over to our home for a visit. After a little while, as we were sitting in the kitchen, our lady friend saw a cricket. Before I knew what she’s was going to do – she did it – she stomped on him and killed him! Jiminy Cricket! I was not pleased. My house, my cricket! “Why did you do that?!” I like crickets and she didn’t care…..

Sometimes I am especially nice…  More than especially nice! Today is one of the times I am! My husband and I have conversations about…… the shower curtain! I am very, very fussy – and not ashamed of this. So, when Duane moved the curtain and one of the hooks came out, leaving the curtain to hang untidily, I fixed it: and folks, I didn’t say a word!   WIVES:  Sometimes it is good just to be loving and sweet without…..

What if you woke up every day happy to be alive? What if you woke up every day glad, really glad, to go to your job? What if you woke up every day thankful for the God-given wife you chose above all the rest? What if you loved your children and were just as excited to kiss them, feed them, clothe them, and provide a warm, loving home for them just as much as the very first moment you saw…..
