God wants us to have VICTORY in our daily life. He will train us to be strong by defeating giants! Anything that “intimidates” us can be a giant. It can appear suddenly or threaten us for years. We either face it, and become stronger, or back off and not move forward. Giants can be spiritual, …
Sometimes it is wise to look back and SEE what GOD taught us in life’s hard places. During 1980’s, my life drastically changed.

Everything about Christmas is a miracle! God planned it before the worlds were formed. Prophets declared it for many years. “For unto us a child is given, and the government shall be upon His shoulder: and his Name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” Isaiah 9:6,7 …
When teaching school, I loved the month of November because it was always a special time of stories and decorations to celebrate “Thanksgiving Holiday”. During the 1990’s, November became the last month of the year I could drive “over the grapevine” before the coming winter fog and snow in California’s Central Valley. I often shared …
God surely had a divine purpose when He placed me in a musical family! From my earliest memories, I heard my maternal Grandmother sing songs about Jesus. She taught me how to play a few of them at age four years. Later, my Uncle paid my Formal Music Lessons. It was a joy to regularly …
