In my leadership classes and student council, I would share with them a short video about how giving one degree more can make an enormous impact in their lives and the lives of others. It went something like this: Continue reading “1 Extra Degree”
I have been blessed enough to have traveled to Europe six times…so far. Most of my adventures have been with students and teachers on educational tours. I have seen many countries, great works of art, magnificent ruins, Gothic cathedrals, resting places of history’s mighty figures, battlefields where the future of the world was decided, and the beauty of the Mediterranean Sea, to name a few.

My husband and I just celebrated our 31st wedding anniversary. I am so proud of that! In our world today, I think it’s a huge accomplishment.

In Jesus Precious Name,
Amen

No matter how pure my intentions, or how true my heart, I can never reach this pinnacle I thought I had to reach in order to be able to serve the Lord. I can’t wait until I’ve finally reached this level of Nirvana, that does not exist, to serve God. I have to serve Him now. Continue reading “Just Do It!”
