  • God’s Church

    What or who is God’s church?  God’s church is at least two people gathering together in the name of Jesus. “For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them” (Matthew 18:20).  God’s church refers to all believers in Jesus Christ, both living and dead, and to local gatherings of Read more

  • God’s Calling

    Teaching has been one of the hardest yet rewarding ministries of my life.  I do not consider myself a teacher, but an ambassador in one of the most unpredictable places in the world: school.  It has been in my classroom that I have learned a new definition of love.  Teachers are literally put into a Read more

  • God’s Mercy

    Some of my favorite scriptures are found in chapter 56 and 57 of Psalms.  Psalm 56: 8-10 says, “You number my wanderings; Put my tears into Your bottle; Are they not in Your book?  When I cry out to You, Then my enemies will turn back; this I know because God is for me.”  Psalm Read more

  • God Dates

    One of my favorite enjoyments in life is swinging in our big canopy swing.  It is big enough to lay down in, and stare up through the trees to bird watch during the day.   If I swing in it at night, I can look at the stars.  I love this time mostly because I Read more

    “You don’t raise heroes, you raise sons. And if you raise them like sons, they’ll turn out to be heroes, even if it is just in your eyes.” — Walter M. Schirra, Sr. Raising boys has to be different from raising girls. I am sure moms of girls have their own praises and battles, but Read more

    God’s Comfort

    One Friday out of the month I am  privileged to moderate the Fellowship of Christian Athletes for Garrison ISD Middle School, and this Friday one of my students led the devotional for her first time.  It was a great study from Psalm 34 about God’s comfort.  She was nervous and doubted herself, but with courage Read more

  • God’s Promises

    If you read my testimony you know that I struggled in my late teens with some health problems.  One of those was a disease called endometriosis.  I remember waking up during the night with excruciating pain and crying out for help.  My parents gathered me up and rushed me to the emergency room.  Soon after Read more

  • God’s Majesty

    Every summer my family likes to make a trip to the beach.  It has been one of my favorite memories since I was seven years old.  My parents keep the tradition of going with the grandkids as well.  We all love adventuring to the beach.  However, most of us do not care to get sand Read more

  • Why Godbumps?

    I chose to name this blog God bumps because of the powerful interventions and works God makes in our lives. Rather it be a miracle, a revelation, or just a small reminder can cause what we term goosebumps. I feel that as children of God we experience Holy Spirit encounters that cause God bumps. I Read more

  • God’s Embrace

     Springtime is my favorite season of the year.  I mean of course I love Christmas time, but as far as the time of year, spring would have to be the time of year I find more joy.  I can smell the freshness of the new buds blooming out on the trees and the radiant sun Read more
