Ever feel like you want a “do over”?  Well, or let’s just say, a good old rewind!  I feel that way sometimes.  But that just really isn’t life, is it? We can’t just stop the clock and start over. We can’t take back the words we said or the words we did not say. We can’t get back the missed opportunity to hug our children, say I love you or share the gospel with a stranger on a plane.  That moment is gone… We can spend a lot of time torturing ourselves trying to...

I Wonder Who I Would Have Been At The Last Supper?

Posted by on Apr 6, 2012 in Inspiration | 0 comments

As I wrote yesterday’s Thankful Thursday, the thought kept coming to me over and over – ” If I was sitting at the table during the Last Supper, who would I have been.” Would I have been Peter or John or James or maybe even Judas? Or any of the others present. There have been times I am sure I have been like all of the disciples at one point or another. I have done a lot in my life that I am not that proud of, but I have never blatantly denied Christ like Peter did, but considering what he...

Thankful Thursdays ~ Remember You Are A Light

Posted by on Mar 22, 2012 in Inspiration, Thankful Thursdays, Uncategorized | 2 comments

On this Thankful Thursday I am reminded as I read the newspaper that we live in difficult times.  It does not take long to see that many innocent people are impacted by the Godless and evil acts of others. For some today, it maybe difficult to find anything to be thankful for, especially if your life has been impacted by the evil or cruel acts of others. However, on this Thankful Thursday, I think that we can be thankful that God gave us the power to impact a world for Him. God’s love, grace and forgiveness...

Thankful Thursday~It’s A Good Day When A Son Asks For Prayer

Posted by on Oct 13, 2011 in Inspiration, Thankful Thursdays | 2 comments

Today on this Thankful Thursday as we headed to school, the middle Son of Thunder was a bit out of sort. This is unusual for him because he is usually calm, cool and collected.  That is unless he see a scary movie.  But today was different. It was different because he was running for a position as a 4-H officer for the fifth grade class.  Trying out for anything can be a bit unnerving. And he was indeed nervous. As he worked on his speech and rehearsed it to us, he confessed he was a bit scared. Really, I think...
