😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace and presence be with you.  On my way home from exercise class yesterday evening, I found myself thinking about those in my family that I’m praying will choose to return to Christ.  My thoughts then turned to friends that also have family members they are praying will return to Christ.  My thoughtsContinue reading “Wednesday, February 21, 2024”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace and presence be with you.  St. Valentine’s Day, what a fabulous day to start Lent on.  In reality, Lent is a season of love.  I can’t even imagine how much love it took to overcome fear of such a horrible death, that Christ knew He would endure for our salvation.  The loveContinue reading “Wednesday, February 14, 2024”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace and presence be with you.  I spent some of my Christmas gift money yesterday and bought myself six weeks of pietra fitness.  In my years, I’ve done multiple types of fitness classes and even had my Zumba instructor certification, but never had I ever taken fitness classes that encompassed Biblical readings, meditation,Continue reading “Wednesday, January 10, 2024”

😎🐫🎤 Merry Christmas and Christ’s peace and presence be with you.  Wow, this past week just flew by and just like that, it’s 2024.  New year, new possibilities.  It seems like we hear that at the beginning of every year.  But have you heard this lately…New year, same God.  Yep, He is the same yesterday,Continue reading “Wednesday, January 3, 2024”

😎🐫🎤 Merry Christmas and Christ’s peace and presence be with you.  Driving between family visits on Christmas Eve, I spotted this license plate, JVS 5451.  My immediate thought was…Jesus vs Satan 54 – 51.  Christ wins by 3…Father Spirit Jesus!  What a great affirmation that was on Christmas Eve. Yes, Christ chose to physically comeContinue reading “Wednesday, December 27, 2023”
