By Lysa Terkeurst There is something I’ve come to realize I need to guard against as a mom. I sometimes want to be God in my kids’ lives. I want to write their stories. I want to set the courses of their futures. I want to determine what’s best for them. I want […]
Give Me Strength Against Fear
Hi Peace Family it’s Jami Mayberry and I was recently contacted by MD Anderson’s Cancer Care Center. A woman had called wanting to speak to someone who had survived her type of cancer. Hers came back after 4 years and she was despondent. She felt alone. They felt I should be the one to talk […]
When the Church Hurts You
Peace family, how should we react when we are hurt by the church? There are so many different ways that people in the church can hurt us. Maybe the leaders sinned in a big way, like the pastor running away with the secretary. Maybe you feel ignored and overlooked by your leaders, they have ignored you in an […]
Overcoming Amazing Odds
Hey Peace Family! Need a story to inspire you today? This is truly amazing… My older sister had a baby at 16 years old. She quit high school, married the father and after a few years of unhappiness, divorced. Due to circumstances beyond her control (and I won’t share our family’s dirty laundry!) her husband […]

Don’t Miss The Promised Land For Egypt
Peace family, I’ve been reading through the Old Testament, and right now, the children of Israel are stuck in the desert, waiting to get into the Promised Land of Canaan. There are all kinds of lessons to pull from this passage, but something that especially struck me on this reading, was how they (and we) often […]

Peace family, the local H&R Block and United Way of the Brazos Valley are partnering to provide a website that can help you do your taxes for free! Alison Prince says they’ve been partnering for several years in order to offer this service. Any family or individual who’s making $64,000 or less can file their […]
Finding Spring Refreshment
Peace family, Happy March! It’s a fresh, new month, and spring is on the way! How are your resolutions going? What are the areas where you need breakthrough, or need to realign your focus on Christ? Some friends and I are going camping this weekend, and we’re hoping to have some great quiet times out […]
Teaching Daughters How to Handle Mean Girls
Peace Family how can we can teach our daughters how to deal with mean girls? Bullying is everywhere nowadays and sometimes we don’t know what to say to give our girls tools to cope with the problem. Just saying ‘Turn the other cheek’ seems so trite to them. So I did some research for you […]
The Chickens Next Door Update
A couple of weeks ago I posted about my neighbor’s chickens and how in spite of having a wonderful coop and backyard to enjoy they would escape into the front yards and wander? Well…I saw this coming. I am very sad to report that a few days ago the chickens were, once again, out of […]
Growing Closer to God, Daily
Peace family, what’s the latest thing that has really helped you to grow in your walk with God? A friend and I have been reading the MacArthur Daily Bible, and it has been such a blessing! So far this year, I’ve really been touched in a new way by God’s compassion throughout the Old Testament, His […]
Catch the Beauty
I almost missed it. It was a long day at work and I was so tired by the time I headed to my car. I’ve gotten used to it being dark since we went off Daylight Savings Time by 5 pm. But that evening it was different. I exited our back door to this. As […]
Our Merciful God
Peace family, something I have been marveling over this week, is God’s amazing mercy, despite his right to completely condemn us as the righteous and perfect judge that He is. A lot of times, people like to compare Jesus to God the Father, and say that God in the Old Testament is much less merciful than […]
The Chickens Next Door
I live in a regular house on a regular street in a regular neighborhood in College Station. Right off Rock Prairie. My next door neighbor is kind of a free spirit and I love her because she loves animals and treats her pets well. Her dogs always run to me when they see me to […]
