A GARDEN OF HIS PROMISES In January, we learned to put on God’s shoes “of iron and brass” to strengthen us as we walk through each day! These SHOES are GOD’S PROMISES. I’m happy to report my body is responding to His promises of health and healing…PTL This month, I was reminded of another way …
Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.” I John 4:11 I’ve discovered there are many ways we can SHOW our love to others. Because this is Valentine month, I chose to share a tender story that illustrates this truth. Helen Mrosla, a teaching Nun, tells of the day her …
“Thy shoes shall be iron and brass, and as thy days, so shall thy strength be.” Dueteronomy 33:25 The past year was the most difficult physically & mentally for me since my first years of prison ministry in 1984. Although I have moved to a lovely home which was planned by God in a beautiful …

God made me a “teacher” before He fulfilled my desire to be a “missionary.” I taught Primary grades in public school and later taught Piano lessons in Private Schools; but my favorite times were teaching under our Chaplain Sandy at Valley State Prison for Women. I loved the Leadership Class of twelve women serving “Life …
It is midsummer and I looked in the grocery store for Concord grapes. There were none. How I miss those beautiful, purple grapes!

When God healed my body in 1982, He changed everything! He took away fear of death and gave me HOPE of eternal life through a relationship with Jesus. He gave me a PURPOSE for my life! No matter how dreams fell apart, nor how the enemy tried to defeat me, I have “stayed-in-love” with Him …
I will always think of the month of June as “Father’s Day” celebrations! I’m grateful to have been raised by a godly father who left me precious memories of our times together. When I was a teenager, he had a weekly radio program and I accompanied his singing on the piano and organ. I shared …
