Living Jehosheba—Again by Mesu

I had a dentist’s appointment a few weeks ago. It was scheduled for the day after we returned from vacation. I’ll be nice and relaxed by the time we return from five sunny days in Florida–That was my thought when scheduling my appointment with a new dentist and a new hygienist. Come to find out…relaxed … Read More

Life is Peachy by Mesu Andrews

I’m down south in the land of peaches—yep, visiting my kids in Georgia and having a wonderful time. In between changing diapers, playing with grandbabies, and dreaming about Barbies and FROZEN, I’ve been thinking about my promise to add more BFF Team members this summer. Several folks applied last spring and were disappointed not to … Read More

How To Be An Author

On a recent road trip, I had the pleasure of visiting with my college roommate. She picked me up at the Denver airport and shuttled me to my daughter’s house in Colorado Springs. We were talking so furiously, we overshot the correct freeway exit by twenty miles. A typical oops for this particular friend and … Read More

When God Said No by Renee Ann Smith

Last month, I wrote about the heartache I sometimes feel when God doesn’t give me what I want. You see, I’ve had this problem since I was small: I just don’t like taking no for an answer. There have been times in my adult life when a no from God reduced me to a sulking, … Read More

Overcoming by Angie Arndt

Philippians is one of my favorite books in the Bible. It is a compact letter so full of deep wisdom and practical direction. One of my favorite verses in this little gem is the last part of the 13 – 14th verses of chapter 3:  “… Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, … Read More

A few weeks ago, I received a contact form off my website–the best one ever! It said: Did you used to sell Mary Kay Cosmetics? I had some Mary Kay products for a long time that had gold labels on them with the name Mesu Andrews on them. I came to your house one time with … Read More

A Name Ain’t Just a Name

If you’ve read more than two chapters of the Old Testament, you’ve probably realized a name ain’t just a name. There’s a whole discipline, called Etymology, devoted to the study of names. Giving names is an honor God bestowed on man while his fellowship was yet unbroken by sin. What a privilege our God gave …

How Do You Love An Invisible God?

I’m in New Mexico this weekend, speaking at a women’s retreat on my favorite topic, Sacred Love, Sacred Dance. These precious women and I will laugh and cry our way through all eight chapters of Solomon’s Song of Songs. When we’re finished, I believe they—like many retreat-ladies before them—will love our God in a new … Read More
