FINISHING STRONG!

"And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith."  Hebrew 12: 1 - 2 

There is a famous line that states "back in my day..." followed by some outlandish statement such as walking five miles up hill both ways to school. Growing up, I would laugh at how often my grandmother would use this statement. 

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

"A woman who respects the Lord should be praised." Proverbs 31:30 

One thing that I truly enjoy is hearing and telling a good story! As a principal, I can tell you that my days are filled with treasured moments where the students of our school say or do things that are absolutely priceless. Also, I have the privilege of hearing some of the most hilarious stories from parents regarding situations that occur in the home environment as well. 

LOST BUT FOUND!

"For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” Luke 19:10

Throughout the years, when phone calls from my daughter begin with the opening line, ”Have I got a story for you,” I tend to hold my breath and brace my mother’s heart for what I am about to hear. Often, they are hilarious stories. Frequently, there is some element of shock, and repeatedly, her dog tends to be the main character in her narratives.  

Perhaps It's Time to Check Under the Hood

“Without wood, a fire goes out; without gossip a quarrel dies down”. Proverbs 26:20 

Throughout my adult life, I have come to learn that either you posses an understanding of automobiles or you don’t. Those who understand cars and their mechanical intricacies usually can identify when there is a problem. In addition, they have a general idea of the cause of the issue. Those of us who do not speak the language of “car” always have a Plan B of knowing where to take our automobiles when something seems off. 

LOVE LETTERS!

“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another.” John 13: 34 & 35

Have you ever received a note or letter that was just so special and/or endearing that you ended up keeping it and rereading it on days when you needed a little encouragement or inspiration? 

Rain or Flood... God Provides the "SON-Shine"!

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come." 2 Corinthians 5:17 

What questions immediately get your attention? Questions such as “do you smell something burning?” or your spouse asking, “Where is the child that you're supposed to be watching?” or “Did you see the large dent in your car?” tend to stop us in our tracks.
