Peace 107:7

Uplifting & Encouraging

God is Faithful

by

One of the best parts of spring is seeing the flowers, grass and trees wake up again after a long winter. I especially like the irises because they come back on their own year after year. You plant the bulb once and then each spring they sprout and bloom. It’s a tangible, physical sign of […]

Share Your Story

by

Peace family, have you taken time lately to examine your personal story of God working in your life? How did you get to know God? What has he been teaching you lately? Even if you aren’t much of a writer, I’d like to encourage you today to take time to write your story. Think through […]

Happy Mother’s Day!

by

Mother’s Day is Sunday, May 8th and we here at Peace 107 want to salute mothers for the unselfish, day-in-day-out dedication and love. Where would we be without mothers?  Whether you had a strong relationship or had a ‘2nd mother’ that filled that role, there is nothing like the teaching example of a mother. Is […]

Driving Test Again?

by

Peace Family, when was the last time you took a driving test? When you were 16? Or maybe moving to another state, or maybe because your license expired…I have always been super responsible about legal things. When I moved back home to Texas from Tennessee I knew I would need to get my license changed. […]

He is Merciful

by

Peace family, today, I just wanted to encourage you with part of what I read in my Bible this morning. It was a good reminder that Christ is merciful. Read with me: “51 As the time approached for him to be taken up to heaven, Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem. 52 And he sent messengers on […]

Thankful for Special Moments

by

Peace family, what are you thankful for today? I am thankful for so many things: thankful that I am physically able to mow my own lawn, thankful that I have so many helpful friends who can give me good advice when I find a leak in an outdoor pipe and don’t know where to turn […]

Finding the Sweetest Watermelon

by

As summer approaches watermelon season is almost here! Watermelon is one of my favorite summertime fruits and I found an expert, Alfonso Garcia, to give me the secrets to finding the best, sweetest watermelons. Of course I have to pass it on to our Peace Family! I know thumping them is a usual but here’s […]

Caring For Those Who Are Grieving

by

Peace family, our friend Gary Roe, chaplain at Hospice Brazos Valley, has written a new book called Please Be Patient, I’m Grieving: How to Care For And Support the Grieving Heart. Gary always has a lot to say for the comfort of those who are grieving, but he tells us that this book is also […]

Unearned Gifts

by

Peace family, a friend and I have been having some good conversations about faith, consequences, and struggles in life, and it made me realize how often we can say that we accept God’s grace for us, but still live our lives as though God’s acceptance of us is all up to us. We were talking about […]

Don’t Lose Heart

by

Peace family, I just wanted to encourage you today that no matter what you are going through, God is with you and you are going to make it! This morning while I was working, a close friend texted II Corinthians 4:16-18 to me. I had forgotten about it, but it’s one of my favorite passages; not […]

April is National Distracted Driving Awareness Month

by

April is National Distracted Driving Awareness month, and Bob Colwell with Tx-DOT wants all of our Peace Family to stay safe on the roads. More than 1,000 statewide distracted driving crashes each year, he urges drivers to put away cell phones and avoid distractions, and give the road your full attention. He says Texans are dying on our […]

Appreciating Nurses

by

One of the most valuable groups of people we have are those that we call nurses. Where would society be without them? Last week was National Nurses Day and it made me think about all the wonderful nurses we have in our lives. One of the biggest blessings of my life was that my best […]

Temptation and Fighting the Good Fight

by

Peace family, we all struggle with temptation, even if we aren’t all tempted by the same things. Over the weekend, a close friend and I had a long conversation about temptation and different ways to fight it. If you are feeling overwhelmed by temptation today, I want to encourage you; you are not alone! You […]

What Feeds Your Soul?

by

Peace family, what feeds your soul? A good friend asked that recently, and it got me thinking about different ways that different people are encouraged. A lot of friends responded with all kinds of answers, from the deep and spiritual to the comfortable and simple: reading the Bible, Jesus, enjoying a good piece of cake, […]

Unanswered Prayers

by

Peace family, what can we do when it feels like our prayers are unanswered? What does it mean when we can’t see God’s good working in a situation? How do we cling to him when circumstances feel unnecessarily cruel? There’s a pretty prevalent false belief that by giving our lives to Christ, we will have some […]
