Puppy training. It's not for wimps. Just when I think that I have little Lucy figured out, she decides to blow the whole deal with a mess up! Ugh! I am not sure if she is ever going to "get it"! So, today I have little Lucy on a short leash. She is tethered to me...Oh Joy! And, she must follow me ... READ the POST
Does God have you on a short leash?
Time Flies! Happy Birthday Cameron!
25 years ago today I was in the hospital in Bakersfield, California giving birth to my second child, Cameron Jaymes Brier. He has been a gift and a joy! Happy Birthday. Believing God for the Good things to Come! Jeremiah 1:5 "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set ... READ the POST

All of us are familiar with slogans and cliches. Some are cute, others catchy, most have a meaning that we want to hold on to.

Before I realized it I was driving down the street with tears pouring down my face. Darn! How can something ... READ the POST

God has lavished his love on us and calls us His children. Why don't we believe it? Or why do we say we believe, but ... READ the POST
Step into Faith and Step Off the Wheel!
It's Amazing to think that we really can have a different kind of life! Amazing! Why? because so many of us settle and snuggle into a less-than existence, a ho-hum type of faith- life that isn't really faith at all. We run on our wheels, try to get our acts together, try harder and harder to be ... READ the POST
Finding Peace inside the wheel of responsibility
Thanks for all the comments and well wishes. We celebrated Ray's 60th and our anniversary and had a wonderful few days. However...now I am home, have errands to run, book deadlines to work on and a speaking engagement in two days. Good thing that I did NOTHING for a few days but vege out! I know ... READ the POST
