Battles in life are a sure thing. Those battles are our individual, unique opportunities to enjoy the victory of Christ personally. Each of us has victories to give back to Jesus that only we can give to Him! Isn’t it exciting to think of giving Jesus Christ a special gift?! Unveiling God in the detailsContinue reading “Turning Life’s Battles into Victories”

Lifemanship
It is my joy to share the excitement of our recent training on ‘Relationships.’ For three days, my daughter, Riesa and our friend Debbie invested our hearts and minds (and bodies) into understanding Relationship Principles that can be visibly demonstrated with horse and human interaction. I am excited about the content and looking forward to building it into aContinue reading “Lifemanship”
Walking with the Leader!
Walking with Scout certainly taught me many lessons. Walking with Scout, Cooper and Barnabas has continued the process. Personalities, self-centeredness, leadership and unity are three major challenges we tackle every time we go out for a walk. Trying to walk 150+ pounds of dog is helping me walk out the requirements of God as statedContinue reading “Walking with the Leader!”
Can ‘good’ Christians get depressed?
Despair and failure are part of this life. We don’t need to run in fear.
Spiritual Snacks May Kill
My asparagus bed has been busy; sadly, so have I, but not with it. In the past couple years, I have tilled and planted. The bed is prepared to produce plenty of asparagus for our family.

The Heart of God
One of my favorite song choruses leads us in these words: “Just to know You and to make You known” Being known in all of His fullness is the heart of God. Jesus tells those who listen that knowing the Father and Himself is eternal life. We cannot know God without the Holy Spirit. Our natural mindsContinue reading “The Heart of God”
