The much-used quote that comes to mind is, “If I didn’t have bad luck, I’d have no luck at all.” Not very positive, is it? Unfortunately, many people believe this when it comes to “feeling down on their luck.” That’s me, when I take a chance at gambling. Believe me, I’m definitely not your high… Continue reading Lucky

Feet
- It seemes a strange word to focus on this week, right? Call me crazy, but I kept feeling this prompting to open my bible to any random page and blindly point to a word. At first, I ignored it; but this little nudge in my mind wouldn’t leave. So, my feet carried me to… Continue reading Feet
Respect
When this word was suggested to me by a good friend and why she thought it was important, I told her I would pray on it. Over the next hours (and also during church service) the word kept rolling over and over again in my mind. Do you remember the song by Aretha Franklin, “R… Continue reading Respect
Story
If you’ve been reading From God’s Lips for a while, you’ve come to expect me to share a short, personal story that relates to our word for the week. And maybe you, yourself, had an occasion where you are able to relate your own story because of my experiences. My purpose for telling this personal… Continue reading Story
Anchor
I recall both good and stressful moments during my husband’s and my boating years when this word enters my thoughts. During our early years of starting and growing a small business, it was a total stress releaser when the weekend finally arrived, and we headed towards our favorite chill spot with our boat. We’d pack… Continue reading Anchor
Faith
If I didn’t know Jesus, how would I find Him? If I never stepped foot inside a church, how would I know anything about Him or if He even existed? If I didn’t listen to the promptings of my heart, that there’s more to life than what I’m living every day, how would I have… Continue reading Faith
Truth
I used to love watching game shows in my younger years. It brings back fond memories, recalling coming home from school and turning on the television, munching on my after-school snack before dinner, and watching shows like Let’s Make a Deal and the Price is Right. I know it sounds crazy, but I could even… Continue reading Truth
Hope
What each of us hope for, at any given time, can be as different as night and day. What do you hope for most? Some would answer “world peace”. Others may hope to land that well-deserved raise or offered a better paying job. Some of us hope that we just get through our day, especially… Continue reading Hope
Remember
Remember when you could remember things? Hopefully you can get a little chuckle out of that question, knowing that it’s many times a struggle to just remember that person’s name you haven’t seen in a while (or maybe it was yesterday). These days, it’s more of a challenge for me remembering details of so many… Continue reading Remember
Laughter
When was the last time you had what we call a good “belly laugh?” When I start recalling some of those times, it brought a big smile to my face, moments I enjoyed with both family and friends. Laughter is so vital for both our mental health and for our souls. And many times, those… Continue reading Laughter
