What’s New?

One of the most meaningful steps in my life was taken this past Sunday. I became Mrs. Settles. The ceremony wasn’t about us, but about how God’s plans come to be when surrendering to Him takes place.God was present during the pain that preceded before I met Dale. God was present during the healing and He showed up with that beautiful surprise when Dale came into my life. And at the altar, we became one.

What’s Happening in July


With white cane beside them and a can held in their outstretched arm, they sit on street corners. This is the scene in many third world countries. Those who have physical disabilities are often put in a lower class only to be dismissed and disregarded.

I have the privilege of traveling to South America in a few weeks. I’ll be delivering messages about how emotional, physical or mental problems are common, but perseverance is priceless and unique.

The main theme will be how God allows our own weaknesses to remind others of their own strengths.

And what we thought was a trap to defeat us becomes a trap for the enemy so that, in victory, we can be an illustration of hope and healing.

I covet your prayers as I obey God’s calling to serve Him in this part of the world.

The Best Teacher

Since today is #TeacherAppreciationDay let me tell you the best one I’ve ever had—it’s called “life.”

Yup, life taught me so much.

I learned that it’s the hard times that brings out the strength I never had.

I learned that disappointments are God’s way to re-direct my steps.

I learned that only those who bring the best in me are worthy to be called “best” friends.

Life taught me that when I plan for the future, I first need to plan my attitude for today.

I learned that when I lament what I lack, self-pity barges in.

Life taught me that when I focus on the good of life, my days become better and I can anticipate the best.

And finally, I learned that often my plans bring on heartache, but only God’s plans bring on happiness.

I thank God for the life He’s given me, the lessons learned, and the meaning revealed.

How about you? Who’s been your best teacher?
