Previous experience of owning a small business, and being part of many encounters with hiring, brings back memories of common questions the interviewer should ask a potential employee during a job interview.  One popular one is, “Are you a leader or a follower?”  Think back to how you would have answered that if possibly you… Continue reading Follow

-   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

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

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

It was more than just a surprise when I woke up one morning and my husband announced that I needed to help him finish packing for my birthday surprise.  When we set off in our car, now loaded with luggage, I asked him again, “What way are we going?”  It wasn’t until we continued to… Continue reading Way

It’s been a journey these past weeks leading up to Easter Day.  And I can’t believe we’ve celebrated with shouts of Hosannas on Palm Sunday already.  What have you learned on your journey to the Cross with Jesus this Lent?  Have you spent time with Him in the Garden, or have there been times you’ve… Continue reading Journey

Excuse me for escaping out of the box with using two words this week.  But because I am reading “Under the Olive Tree” this Lent with my two friends, I decided to purchase from Amazon three olive tree seedlings to help us focus both our hearts and minds on Jesus in His Garden.  I’m smiling… Continue reading Olive (tree)

During your Lenten journey with me, in our desire to be closer to Jesus in his hour of agony, He makes a small request to stay awake with him.  It’s a request He’s also making to you and me.  “Don’t fall asleep.  Stay with me and pray.”  In the garden, did the disciples yet fully… Continue reading Vision

As I begin my prayer time on this partly sunny day, there was something simple but eye-opening, when I read the Psalm verse, “you hold me by my right hand.”  So much so, that I stopped reading and felt the need to just sit quietly envisioning Jesus holding my hand.  It is amazing to me… Continue reading Hold

The first time I flew on a commercial airplane was our honeymoon.  Frankly, I didn’t know what to expect.  Luckily my new groom knew the ropes a lot better, and I just followed his lead.  I was a little unnerved when there was, what I considered, turbulence while flying.  Again, my husband didn’t seem concerned… Continue reading Fly
