“I don’t believe in heaven or hell. I believe that this life is all there is, and when we die, it’s all over and we turn to dirt.” “You’re free to believe what you want to believe, but it doesn’t change the truth.” Have you had a similar exchange with an unbeliever? “What is truth?” […]
“Something doesn’t feel right. Something is definitely missing. I don’t understand what is happening right now. I love my dad and I trust him. He has always told me the truth in everything. I heard him tell the servants that we would return to them. He just told me that God Himself would provide the […]
My first Valentine’s Day with Gene was in 1970. I was fifteen and he was eighteen. This Valentine’s marks forty-eight times we have celebrated as each other’s one and only. Who knew? God knew! So today, I can say I am still thankful and still in love, and I type this with a smile. I’m […]

“Honey, you shouldn’t think that!” “Really? Now you’re telling me what to think?” He was right. My husband is entitled to his own thoughts and opinions. I must respect that, and we should talk things out to ascertain why each of us feel and think about a particular situation the way we do. Who am […]
“Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone…I know, I know, I know, I know, I know…” Have you ever got a song stuck in your brain and it replays over and over and you can’t stop it? Well, that song does it to me every time, and my sweet husband, whom I love dearly, can aggravate […]
