Happy Mother’s Day 2025

 Hey Friends,

Please pray for my Mamaw Martha Boggs! She has not been feeling well this week. Her heart is back in Afib. Currently, she is in the hospital. The doctors have her on medication, trying to regulate her heart. She will be in the hospital for a few days.

Please join us in praying for her speedy and complete recovery. Also, pray that she can get some good rest!

Thank you for stopping by to visit me on a Sunday. Did you happen to read the Beautiful post? My Mom wrote yesterday? She did a fabulous job honoring both of my grandmothers. You can check it out by clicking here.

I hope you are having a fantastic Mother's Day! May God bless all the wonderful women! Many of you have had a special influence on our lives, and we are so thankful for each and every one of you.

I interrupt the regular scheduled blog programming to honor a very special person! I cannot let the special day pass without mentioning Mama. 

God picked out the perfect Mother just for me! I have always known that she was a jewel, and she has been my hero.


WOW, this year I appreciate her even more! I am watching her persevere daily. A whole new life, and boat load of responsibilities fell into her lap six months ago.

Mom has handled it with grace and class. I am not saying that she does not struggle, but we get through together. Our bond is stronger than ever!


Mother,
I am so proud of you as a person, and I am proud to be your daughter! Thank you for being a Godly Influence in my life. You have always pointed me toward God.

You have led me by experience that we can overcome the obstacles of life. We do not have to let the tough times get us down! I know you do not believe it, but you are awesome!

I hope and pray that you feel abundantly loved and appreciated today!  I love you with all of my heart! Words fail me to adequately express my gratitude!

Thank you once again for reading! I will see you tomorrow.

I Am Thankful For Our Mothers!

Hello,

Surprise, it is Kelly Jo writing to you. Happy Mother's Day! 

Today I am giving Odie a break from writing. I think she is doing a wonderful job carrying on her Dad’s daily blogs. I wanted to borrow her writing space and tell you something on my heart.

As most of you already know, my husband, Davy, was a wonderful man with a heart toward God. Over the years, he developed a wonderful ministry that helped saints and reached sinners.
 
Much of his effectiveness can be attributed to his diligence to study, preparation and pure desire to reach all the people he could. 

There is one more contributing factor, his praying Mother. Davy often told us about the impression his mom left on him by praying by his bedside each night. 


I am convinced her prayers played a big part in shaping who he was for the Lord. Therefore, shaping the path for the wonderful years I had with him before he went on to Heaven to receive his reward.  

I cherish all the time we had on the road traveling for God.  So I want to thank my Mother-in-law, Martha Boggs, for being such a great woman and helping to make Davy into a man with a place in his heart for God. I have benefited greatly from it. 


I also want to pay tribute to my own Mother, Betty Morgan.


Growing up I was encouraged so much to play music and sing with all I had in me.  

She took me to church and exposed my life to great worship. That helped establish my direction toward God.  She always reminded me that gifts come from God and to always use any gifts I had for Him. 


She was a cheerleader for me then and she still is today! I am forever grateful for everything she has helped me accomplish in my life by her encouragement to use what God has given me. 

So a little encouragement, if you are a young mother or even a Mom with grown kids, remember that your words and your actions can help shape and guide your child into being something great for God!

You can have a part in what they may do for God someday!   I think that is amazing! What we as Mom’s say and do can be forever in their hearts. 

Thank you for listening to me today!
Kelly Jo

Cinco de Mayo 2025

Hey Friends,

Today is Cinco de Mayo, the fifth day of May. It is a Mexican holiday, which I believe is celebrated more in the USA than in Mexico.

It is Monday is not Throwback Thursday, but I had to share Dad's annual Cinco de Mayo photo. I think one of his all-time favorite pictures. If my memory is correct, Dad first posted this picture in May 2019. It was taken in Gainesville, Texas.

In honor of Cinco de Mayo and my Daddy. Here is this great picture that showcases his wonderful sense of humor! 


Thanks for reading! I hope this brought a smile to your face today as it did mine!
