The Wrong House…

In this suburban church, the pastor’s wife had surgery and began her recovery.  Since a lady named Maggie knew her through bible study groups and her daughter, Martie, went to school with the pastor and pastor’s wife kids, Maggie decided she would make a homemade apple pie and drop it off at the pastor’s home. When they pulled into the…

When you can’t see God in your problems…

I love this phrase I heard recently as I was listening to a Bible teacher on the radio.  Do you sometimes feel overwhelmed with problems?  Gosh, we all do from time to time.  Do you feel like during these times that God has taken a day off or He is on an extended break somewhere ( hey, He cannot go…

Can children with autism ask Jesus into their heart?

Do you know what every love story has in common?  A beginning…. This is a devotion I am sharing in my new book I am faithfully writing, “Marvel in your Autistic Eyes Devotions- 365 Days to find Encouragement in Autism” Now back to the love story.  The greatest love story of all time is the one we share with Jesus.…

Hug a little tighter…

Children with autism just seem to hug a little longer and a little tighter because they are not insecure about what other people may say about them… Children with autism just seem to have the most sincere and authentic smile because the smile inside their heart illuminates on their faces… Children with autism will voice honest words that we all…

Seeds of You…

My biggest prayer is that everywhere I go, I plant seeds of You  So others can know You the way I personally do As I start my day, when I get out of bed May words of thanksgiving to You be daily said As I head out the door on my way to work, hurriedly May I take time to…

You may be the only Jesus He sees today…

Gosh, in this crazy world full of negativity and everyone wanting to jump on some bandwagon, it is easy to become bitter and full of hate or other yucky feelings.  I do not want to be this way. Someone was interviewing a little boy and he was asked what he wanted to be when he grew up.  The little boy…

Born different…

I heard one of my favorite pastors on the radio share this story and it made me think of children with autism too.  Here it is in my own words: Once there was a little girl born with a cleft lip.  Knowing the kids would make fun of her for being born different with a lip that looked odd to…

Richest people on earth!

If you were asked, “Where do the richest people on earth reside?”….you would think and try to find out…hey, maybe some of it will rub off on us in our trying economic times…right?  Our ears perk up instantly! Sadly, the answer is not glamorous like the diamond fields of South Africa.  NO, the richest people on earth reside in cemeteries…

Not massage, but an operation

Our ears perk up when we hear the word massage because we know this means a pampering is in sight. Many people who want to have a relationship with Jesus want to feel pampered like a wonderful massage and only want the “feel good” messages because we want things easy.  People want to hear that ONLY the best is in…

Good ole-fashioned CALENDAR…

If I could recommend ONE New Year resolution for you, it would be this:  Get yourself a good ‘ole fashioned calendar…that really means a wall calendar that you can write on! I say this because no one seems to use a real wall calendar anymore….everything is kept on devices instead so it seems old fashioned to most today! Something amazing…
