Your life can get better and better or it can go backward.

How's your life going with all its joys, problems, and setbacks ?  What are you doing with all of those?  Some of the best advice I ever got was to always remain teachable and correctable.  I have tried to do that and I think that is why I seem to always be moving forward.  Sometimes you hate to hear it, but if you think about it, that is your best friend.  Otherwise, you stay the same.  Hence, "if you keep on doing what you have always done, you will keep on getting what you have always gotten".  So, Friends, let's keep a lookout for what is being said to us, ponder it, and make the necessary changes to move on up.

What An Amazing God We Serve!

My life in ministry really did not get started in my true call from God until my 60's. Have you ever read the story Jesus told in the Bible about the 5:00 people getting the same pay as the 9:00 people? That's me. Right now, right before Jesus comes back, I am working more than I ever have, with more energy than I have ever had, happier than I have ever been.

Ways to Know for Sure God Wants You to Do Something

1. VISION: What do You want done?

2. PURPOSE: What’s the point of it?

3. GOALS: How do we get there?

4. CREATIVE IDEAS: Things you would never think of naturally to do.

5. SHOW ME IN YOUR WORD-Confirm the call through something in the Bible.

The Impossible

When things seem impossible, all things are possible to him who believes.

Forgiving the Hard Things

Forgiving someone doesn't mean that what they did was ok, it means that you are releasing the pain of it from your life.

Jesus Sets a High Standard for Dealing with People

They said to Jesus, "Teacher, we know you have integrity, teach the way of God accurately, are indifferent to popular opinion, and don't pander to your students."

What a wonderful guide as you move through life. Think of the private peace that would bring.

Getting Ready for Africa!!

It is now April 4th and we leave for Africa April 28th.  This will be my fifth trip there.

We will be conducting a women's conference in Iganga, Uganda, second one there. The title of the conference there and also for the one in Naivasha, Kenya is "Women of Destiny for the 21st Century" and we will also be doing seminars on "Serving God and Your Family".  This will be the fifth conference in Kenya.

In the last year we have started micro-finance in Kenya.  About 120 women have been able to start their own business.  We will start another 15 women soon.  This has been a huge help to their lives.  Some were HIV Positive, some were prostitutes, some were single moms.  There is great joy in them as a result.

We are also doing feeding programs with orphans, poor children, and people living in tents as a result of the political fallout in Kenya in 2008.  We are feeding about 1000 people a day each month.

For the last three years I have had a TV show that showed five times a week in 170 countries and on the internet.  It has been one of the most challenging things I have ever done.  Talk about stretching me!

Someone once said about me, "Adventure is in your bones" and they were so right!

I am a wife of 43 years, a mother, a grandmother, and a great grandmother (step-granddaughter).  Life is good.
