Sun, 29 Jun 2025 01:51:57 -0700

Yes, in four days June 2025 will be history and July will begin. I am not quite sure if we are chasing time or time is chasing us, either way, it is a fast chase. I like to think of it more as our chasing after eternity, it is there for us, just across the finish line, wherever the line for each of us may be. Praise be to God, there will be…

I am sitting here in my humble study with the window AC unit blowing away on a hot summer afternoon while checking on our flood irrigation outside from time to time. Hard to believe it was almost a bit chilly on my bike ride early this morning.

I asked my assistant, Kathy, to send me a write up about a conversation she had with a female…

Hola!

Here we are, June 14, the day before Father’s Day. To all of you who are dads, Happy Father’s Day!

I will humbly admit for each of you, as well as myself, there is no Father’s Day for any of us without a mother, times two. In my own home growing up, it was dad who provided for us, but it was mom who held things together, led us in…

Hello lovely ladies – I want to share some information that I came across. There is a conference coming to Prescott on Saturday, August 16. It’s titled Hearts Being Healed. You need to register online. I have never been, but plan on going. I believe it will be an incredible time that will impact our lives. I also believe it will equip us…

Hola!

Well, here we are on the sixth of June in the year 2025. That might not sound too exciting depending on your day today, BUT, (what a big three letter word in the Bible), here we are on the sixth day of June in the year 2025, eagerly awaiting the glorious appearing of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Now that is exciting no matter…

Hola!

Well, here we are at the end of May already and summer is upon us. Mrs. Rhonda’s birthday is Monday. I won’t tell you how old she is, but do you suppose time can go any faster. I have a picture of her above my desk from our senior year in high school and it seems like yesterday. Hmmmm, in eternity, (there are maybe a few who might…

Hello my friends,

I’ve posted our June devotional: Dancing in the Joy of the Lord.

Joy is more than a feeling; it is a deep-rooted confidence in God’s faithfulness. Even in life’s storms, we can choose to dance in the joy of the Lord, knowing He holds us securely.

I pray that you find ways to live and express joy in your lives today. – Dianne

Hola!

As Mr. Rogers used to sing it, “It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood.” Or, as the psalmist penned it, “This is the day which the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.” Amen! Romans 2:4b comes to mind, “Don’t you understand it is the goodness of God that leads you to repentance?” As Jesus says, “No one is good but God…

Hola!

I trust you are doing at least reasonably well this afternoon and hopefully better than that. After being out of the ordinary cool here for the latter half of April and first eight days of May, it is warming up today and we will top out in the low nineties. The warmer temperatures following recent rains have the weeds growing with…

Hola! Hard as it is to believe, here we are in May already. The school year will be ended here twenty days from now, or as one of our volunteers kept saying to MacKenna yesterday evening, only ten school days are left. What a blur this school year has been. For the month of June, MacKenna will be taking an accelerated course in American History…

Hello my friends,

This is the May devotional: Reflect Christ in the Conflict

As followers of Christ, we are called to reflect His love, humility, and grace even in the hardest moments.

I pray that this encourages you through whatever you or a loved one is facing today. – Dianne

Hola! I hope the weather in your area is as beautiful today as it is here in the Verde Valley. The Verde Valley sits right in the middle of Arizona. In fact, just a short bike ride from our home is the geographic center of Arizona. Maybe you will need that for a trivia question sometime. I just like to think we are always right in the middle…

Hola!

I trust you are well on this so-called Good Friday. Good for humanity that Christ Jesus went to the cross for us, but what a horrific day for He and those on the other trees, as well as Mary. To paraphrase Caiaphas, it was better for one Man to die in our place than for all humanity to forever perish. As Jesus said, for this He came.…

It seems like the school year just started and there are only eight weeks of school left. And we thought last year went by in a hurry! there is that time thing again,…

Hello my friends,

Here’s the link to April’s devotional: Victory Belongs to the Lord

Victory is not measured by what we see in the moment but by what God has already declared. Even when the battle seems overwhelming, we stand in the assurance that our victory is in Him.

I pray that you are blessed by the message. Dianne

Hola! I trust your week has gone well and I hope the weather where you are is at least half as nice as it has been here this week. We are supposed to warm to the high eighties next week and it is really early for that. The mountains did get more snow but not near enough and this could mean a tough fire season in Arizona.

Hola! This is my third try at this after losing all my work twice yesterday, the second time at 9:00 last night. Maybe the devil or maybe just my fat fingers that often hit two keys at the same time. Anyways, here I go again.

Hola! Rain and snow here today! PTL! Hopefully the mountains will get a lot of much needed snow. It has been raining here in the Verde Valley all day, and we have rain mixed with snow presently. This storm should set the stage for a beautiful spring. Of course, as is always the case, the weeds will grow fastest and mostest, but there are times…

Hola! It does in fact appear spring is springing early here in the Verde Valley. The fruit trees are blossoming, birds are pairing up, and green is starting to show on the ground. It is a beautiful spring day here and mine started early in a zoom meeting with a men’s ministry in central Illinois at Eastview Church with about fifty good…

Hola!

It is a beautiful, chilly, cloudless morning here in the Verde Valley of central Arizona. We are supposed to see 73 degrees today and be in the low eighties much of next week. Hopefully spring is not springing on us way to early. There is currently no snow melt in the mountains to speak of and that is not good. Like a lot of the southwest…

Hola! and Happy Valentine’s Day to you, my friends!

We received a bit of much needed rain in the night and the mountains north and east of us were predicted to get a foot of snow, though I am not sure if that happened. We certainly need moisture here as with so much of Arizona presently. You are certainly welcome to pray rain and snow for…

Hola!

Yes, January has already passed, whew! It appears 2025 will be as much a blur as 2024 if not more so. Just think, there may be no clocks and no calendars in Heaven. What could “time” possibly mean in eternity? I will have to give this some thought later but remember for now, there will be no need of the sun or moon in Heaven because the…

The small, repetitive, and seemingly insignificant parts of our day are opportunities to glorify God and grow in our relationship with Him.

Hola! Well, we made it through the first month of the new year. I turned sixty-six years old sometime this morning. Sixty-six trips around the sun, 38.5 billion miles, at the blazing speed of 67,000 miles per hour. I think I now qualify as an official frequent flyer! Is it any wonder my time on earth has been a blur? Without a doubt I…

Hola! It has been a busy, productive, fruitful, and sad week here. Busy includes five hundred thirty-eight road miles, fruitful includes nineteen Bibles issued, plus other books, and sad because on Thursday afternoon we lost our joyful eight-year-old labrador, Saphy.

Hola! I pray you are warm and well this seventeenth day of January. We received a wee bit of moisture in the night, and it is pretty chilly this morning. Perhaps it is snowing in the high country to the north and east of us. The forests here are pretty dry and snow is badly needed. You are sure welcome to pray and ask God to open His…

Hola and Happy New Year! As MacKenna said it on New Years Eve, “Where did 2024 go?” The answer is simple of course, the same place the last six to seven thousand years of natural and human history went! It is all in the past now and as missionary Charles Studd once penned, “Only what is done for Christ will last.” I hope in the history book of…

Well, here we are already at the end of 2024 with the last edition of Salt & Light for the year. As a friend said recently, “The year 2025 somehow sounds strange.” I couldn’t help but think of the song from 1969 by Zagger and Evans, “In the year 2525.” The first line of the song is, “In the year 2525, if man is still alive.” I am thinking…
