It’s interesting, (that’s a kind word for it) to take a walk with me, but will you walk with me. I have something important to share with you. I’m sorta like the little boy in Bil Keane’s “Family Circus” comic strip. I have a hard time staying focused on one thing. Everything intrigues me! I’m […]
My neighborhood is beginning to take on the beauty of Christmas. The lady on the corner is our “All Star” best decoration winner every year! She has a special gift of creating dazzling vignettes all over her yard. My eyes skip from one delightful scene to the other as I linger over the beauty when […]
I’m serious. Whose gift list would you like to be on? Come on…just for fun…think with me for just a minute…if you could be on anyone’s and I mean anyone’s…whose gift list who would it be? Would you pick someone that is wealthy to experience the lavishness of wealth? Would you pick someone […]
Is it possible? Will we stand divided or united? Can there be unity? Ever since our trip out West, I’ve felt God whispering “One root. One root, Pat!” And like so many of the things I learned while we were there, I have a story to share with you. I had to share Jason (my […]
The leaves have been spectacular again this year. The vibrant colors explode like July fireworks and linger so you can enjoy them for a few days, not just seconds. But I love the fall for another reason. It’s when I married my sweetheart. He was an awesome young man. Intelligent. The leader of our youth group. […]
I have always loved Isaiah 61. It is one of those go to chapters that has enriched my life. But after my trip out West, it has taken on an even richer meaning to me. I am convinced that we can move from devastation to beauty. As we walked through fields of almost […]
How? Why? How are the mighty fallen? It was the question I had to ask the park ranger at the entrance to Sunset Crater National Park Our adventure took us from the red rocks of Sedona to Flagstaff. It was early fall and my image of the hot deserts of Arizona did not include snow. […]
What do you do when you know better, but the Bible feels lifeless? Let me start with a story. If you know me, that’s where I always start. We were at Sunset Crater Volcano. We walked along and through black rivers of hardened volcanic flow. When we reached a paved path, I could almost hear […]
Power is a Big Deal! Sometimes we forget all the things we use that require power. Just let it go off for an hour, or even worse days, then you will remember very quickly how important power is. We are praying for the folks that just went through Hurricane Florence. It is estimated that 3 […]
Everyone wants to feel loved. It makes you feel valuable. They tell me feeling loved makes you live longer. One thing I know for sure it makes you feel happier. So let me ask you, Are you interested in reading a love letter? I mean a love letter that is written to you? I know […]
I have to ask you, “Are you a faultfinder or a faith finder?” I’m asking you, because it’s a question I asked myself early this morning during my prayer time. Let me explain. Our Deep Well went out. It was a huge deal because regulations had changed and finding an appropriate location on that mountain […]
Those of you that have attended my R.E.I.G.N. Conference know how important Romans 5:17 is to me. I want to reign in life, instead of living under the circumstances. For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God’s abundant provision […]
