Do you make Him a part of your everything? Sometimes we get busy and leave Him only for church and our quiet time. We forget to add Him in everywhere else. Jesus wants to be a part of our everything and we really need Him in everything. Let God make the call in all you […]
Victor's Crown
Being greatly encouraged by a new CD a friend gave me: Revealing Jesus by Darlene Zschech. My delight is found in knowing that He wears the Victor’s Crown! How about you? Years ago Kurt and I were mentored by a saint who is now in the direct presence of the Victor, Dean Hochstetler. Dean was […]

Said ever so simply by Abraham Lincoln, “Most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.” This journey continues to remind me that my thoughts are important – critically so.

Being Thankful
A while back dad mentioned that if we get to a point of being thankful for our circumstances God is able to do more because our hearts are turned to things of above not on worry and distress. Well, I simply thought that was impossible. How could you be thankful for this?! Some mornings in […]
