Give Me Strength Against Fear

by

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 […]

Needing Refreshment

by

Peace family, what do you do when you need refreshment? What do you do when your heart feels hungry? I recently asked several friends for the different ways that they fed their hearts, when they felt weary or hurting. Every friend had a different answer for what touched and ministered to them. Of course, the […]

Overcoming Amazing Odds

by

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 […]

Grace For Learning

by

Peace family, learning is hard! Where do you need grace for learning, and where can you give grace for learning? I recently started taking piano classes under a friend, and I’m really enjoying it, but it has taken almost two months before I’ve started to feel much confidence at all.  I have wanted to learn to […]

Don’t Miss The Promised Land For Egypt

by

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 […]

Tips For Burning the Night Oil

by

Peace family, when was the last time you managed to finish something that was really difficult to accomplish? Has there been anything lately that you are confident God helped you to do, because you couldn’t do it on your own? I just wanted to share how encouraged I am, and some tips that got me […]

Teaching Daughters How to Handle Mean Girls

by

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 […]

Recipe: Rainbow Turkey Soup

by

Peace family, do you ever get into a rut of cooking the same things in the same way, over and over? I’m trying to save money right now (I splashed out on an expensive purchase- a historical cookbook, actually!), and I’m trying to get better at cooking the food that is already at my house. […]

Where Do You Get Your Validation?

by

Peace family, where do you get your validation? I was listening to a radio program the other day, that talked about how important it is for parents, specifically fathers, to validate their children by speaking identity and value over them. It left me thinking a lot about relationships and validation. If we don’t really receive […]

The Chickens Next Door Update

by

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 […]

Grace For Parenting Needs

by

Peace family, when it comes to parenting, do you ever feel uninformed, embarrassed, or frustrated? So many times, we can feel unskilled in an area, but we are afraid to reach out for help or learn more about ways to do things, especially if we feel like we should already know what we are doing. […]

“Tough Love” For Yourself

by

Peace family, we talk about “tough love” from time to time, but not usually for ourselves. However, I want to challenge you to give yourself a little tough love, if that’s what you need! You might find some break through in your situation. My roommate was recently talking to me about some things that she […]

Catch the Beauty

by

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 […]
