Do You Believe in Miracles?

August 4, 2014 – A New Chapter Begins
If you are reading this on time – it’s Tuesday, but I’m writing on Monday. Your Monday may have been an ordinary one filled with routine tasks. Honestly, to anyone with a hidden camera our morning at the Jackson house may have seemed ordinary, but it was far from it. Oh, it started out like […]
Mental Practice
Years ago, spring and summer weekends found me on the softball field with my daughter and her band of buddies. The core members of that team remained the same for several years and I had a blast watching them grow into beautiful young ladies both on and off the field. I wasn’t the best coach, […]
What To Do With Miserable People
If you want a question answered, just post it on facebook! Yesterday I may have hit a nerve when I asked, “What is the best response toward someone who continually seems to enjoy making your life miserable?” I loved the diversity of answers and answerers. Responses came from former students, past coworkers, church buddies, and […]
Do You Have Pretty Feet?
Last week at this time Ron and I enjoyed meeting lots of new people at Lipscomb University’s Summer Celebration. Like most large gatherings of Christians there were many inspiring keynote speakers, thought-provoking classes, and a variety of accents all proclaiming the name of Jesus. While the book of Joshua shined brightly as the theme of […]
It’s Summer Celebration Time!
Yesterday, Ron and I celebrated 35 years together. I can’t believe he’s put up with my need to change life courses every 10 years. My 20’s were all about raising kids, the 30’s found me teaching school, children’s ministry grabbed my attention in my 40’s, and now my 50’s are all about writing and speaking. […]
Revisiting Tadpoles and Mud Puddles
For some weird reason one of my first blog posts, Tadpoles and Mud Puddles, continues to get viewed almost four years after it was posted. Who knows? Maybe some amphibian-loving soul searching the web for frog info will accidentally stumble onto my website and find the One who can pull them out of their own […]
Remodeling the Heart
Inspiration for Perfection Road comes from a variety of unusual sources. This week is no exception. Today finds me in Highlands, North Carolina on my husband’s business trip. Cool air, low humidity, blue skies, and sunshine create a vacation atmosphere – more for me than him! Yesterday, we reconnected with some friends we had not […]
Don’t Go Around Hungry
I have a warped sense of humor. There! I said it! Physical comedy makes me laugh harder than anything. I guess that’s why I like “I Love Lucy”, “The Three Stooges” and “America’s Funniest Videos.” I’m sure that says something about my psyche that I don’t really want to know, but, I’m digressing. Snickers subtly […]
How’s Your Day?
Many months ago, while browsing for a greeting card, I came across one that had these words from the apostle Paul’s pen written on the front: “Five times I received from the Jews the forty lashes minus one. Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was pelted with stones, three times I was […]
