Even Though: Believe it or not


I'm a Christian, a wife to Lester for 34 years, a mother to three great kids, a grandmother to five. I'm also a writer and Published author.

What I'm not is perfect. On any given day I am sure to mess up in dozens of ways. I will be impractical and make decisions that will hurt my family, my finances or my future. I will be impatient and say or do something to annoy, distract, or damage others. I will be impulsive and allow my anger, my frustration or my sadness to lead me into sinning against my God and others. I WILL BE IMPERFECT. It's who I am.

Yet, even though I'm not yet who I could be in Christ, He loves me anyway! God loves me anyway!

Believe it or not



 Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth. ~John 17:17 ESV



Someone once said to me, “I don’t believe in
Dinosaurs. They never really existed. And, before you try to convince me using ‘fossils’ and old bones as proof, I should tell you: I don’t believe those things are real either. I can make that kind of stuff at home with concrete mix, dirt and a shovel.”

Strange, right?


Unbelievably it doesn’t end there. I’m told

there are thousands of people in the world that don’t believe man really walked on the moon. Instead, they believe it was all a make-believe stunt—filmed in a Hollywood studio—a trick of the Kennedy administration meant to make JFK look good—and perpetuated by the media still today. 


And, shockingly, there are thousands more who don’t believe the holocaust actually happened despite the pictures, the films, the survivors and eyewitness accounts… 


And of course, there are millions of unbelievers who won’t admit the truth of Jesus’ existence or the reality of God.


The joke, of course, is on all those unbelievers. Because, no matter what they choose to believe, the reality of each situation…the TRUTH…and the proof is out there. 


Man DID walk on the moon. And, God is alive and well today. His Son, Jesus, was born, lived, died on the cross for our sins, rose again and sits on a throne in heaven. CAN I GET AN AMEN? AMEN!!


Truth is not relative. It doesn’t change from one person to the next. It isn’t different from one situation to the next. Gravity doesn’t exist for some and not for others, the stars don't shine for some and not for others; whether some choose to believe or not, nothing changes the truth. It just is what it is. The same is TRUE for God the Father and Jesus the Son. Believe or not…They live.


And, because they live I can face tomorrow…..
