Uplifting & Encouraging

Encourage Others!

by

Peace family, today, I want to encourage you to take the time to encourage someone who needs it! When I heard that Alan Rickman had died this morning of cancer, I was pretty sad, not just by the loss of one of my favorite actors, but also because last year, Brian and I talked about […]

Weeds in the Garden

by

Peace family, I’ve mentioned before how the winter is a great time for getting things in the garden ready for spring. With such lovely, warm weather yesterday, I decided to do some maintenance, namely, weeding grass out of the flower bed. As you can see from the photo above, after about two years of neglect, […]

Simple Kindnesses

by

Peace family, when was the last time that you expressed God’s love to the world through blessing a stranger? I am not sure why it has been happening, but for some reason the last two or three weeks, God has been showing his love to me a lot through strangers. I have had an Amazon […]

You Are Treasured

by

Peace family, what’s on your mind today? We’ve just started our second full week of the new year, and with so many goals and restarts, sometimes it can get a little overwhelming. Today, I want to invite you to take at least five minutes to just sit and talk to God. Remember that you are […]

Learning Japanese

by

Peace family, is there some difficult or pesky task that you’ve been putting off? I’ve found that it’s a lot harder to notice when I’m procrastinating as an adult than it was when I was a child. With homework and clear deadlines, there was an obvious way to grade myself on what I was accomplishing […]

Family Healing

by

Peace family, since meeting up with several close friends for the first time since the holidays, it’s interesting how several conversations have ended up examining pain and dysfunction in our families. First of all, I want to encourage you that if you feel like your family is more crazy than anyone else’s, you aren’t alone. Everyone […]

Missions at Work

by

Peace family, how are you changing the world around you at work? Yesterday, I was thinking about how we often prefer to keep our work and spiritual lives separate. To be fair, it’s vulnerable to expose who we are and our deepest beliefs. I’m not saying to be aggressive with people- the Bible says we should […]

Simple, Sweet Mercies

by

Peace family, today I just want to focus on the mercies of God, how he brings good things into our lives, even when we don’t deserve them! I was given some hyacinths last year, and after they finished blooming, I didn’t take particularly good care of them. Actually, I took pretty bad care of them, […]

Happy New Year!

by

Peace family, as 2015 draws to a close, we stand on the threshold of something wonderful and exciting: a fresh, new year! If you’re anything like me, this year was a mix of good and bad things in your personal life, while events in America and on the worldwide stage often could be overwhelming. Decisions were made by leaders […]

Kat looks “All Aglow” in this Charlie Paige Black Fur lined Cardigan, that is elegant and perfect for your New Year’s […]

The Beauty of Winter

by

Peace family, once Christmas is over, sometimes it’s easy for us Texans to become discouraged or frustrated with the cold, but there are many lovely and useful parts of winter! The slower pace sometimes seems to drag, but you can make winter work for you. In nature, the trees slow down and get ready for […]

Behold His Glory

by

  Peace family, this year, I’ve made most of my gifts to others out of wood. I made Advent wreaths, and it has been a painstaking, dirty, sometimes sweaty process, but it’s also been an intimate one. The work takes time and labor. You breathe in a lot of piney saw dust, you put in a lot of effort […]
