  I had a whole other blog written to send out on the subject of New Year Resolutions…then God grabbed my ear and redirected me down a whole other road. I’ve made basically the same resolutions every New Year since I was probably in my early 20’s. I’m not gonna tell you what they are,Continue reading “Happy Re-New Year”

I recently watched a video of an awesome song done by one of my most favoritest singers. She was talking about pride and humility…two of the trickiest character qualities to deal with. You can’t have the latter without the lack of the former. “Pride comes before a fall,” Proverbs 16:18 says. I love how TheContinue reading “s t a y l o w”

From a post today by Jon Acuff: “Do you know why strangers rage at each other online and are so quick to be angry and offended these days? Because their passion has no other outlet. When you refuse to deal in joy, you don’t quit being emotional; you just funnel all that fury somewhere else.Continue reading “WHY TROLLS TROLL”

How old are you? Do you remember “graduating” from something? Man, I sure do. On the day of my 8th-grade “graduation,” I remember being asked, and completely privileged (to a degree), to play “Pomp and Circumstance” on the piano as my 8th grade compatriots sashayed across the stage, as it were. On the day ofContinue reading “Graduations”

(I wrote this blog on Earth Day 2008…eleven years ago. Hard to believe. Not much has changed.) Today is Earth Day, 2008. I’ve been thinking a lot lately about this idea of “protecting” and “taking care of” the earth. I have heard the phrase “going green” ad nauseam. Every other commercial reminds us how rottenContinue reading “Earth Day 2019”

Look at where a good bit of your TIME, your TREASURE and your TALENT are spent. Do you spend a lot of your TIME on your phone, looking at social media or perusing Pinterest? Do you spend a lot of your TIME on your couch, watching daytime tv or binge-watching This is Us? Do youContinue reading “Where’s Your Heart?”

David and I were watching a news show a while back, on which they featured a woman from the University of California Berkeley, a biologist, who is developing a new genome editing tool called CRISPR (“clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats”)…a tool that could transform the field of biology.            Continue reading “crispr”

  Since January isn’t over yet, I think it’s still ok to talk about resolutions. “LeeAnn Greenup Ramsey” and “New Year’s resolutions” have a love/hate….well, let’s just say an “awkward” relationship. We always have. Prolly always will. Every stinkin’ year I make a list of whatever. And every year, I almost always totes fail atContinue reading “Resolutions”

  One (just one) of my all-time favorite Bible verses is 1 Peter 5:7. It says, “Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.” (NIV) I’ve even performed a song called “Cares Chorus” in my past life, based on this verse. lol In the Living Bible translation, it says, “Let Him haveContinue reading “On Casting Cares”

A couple of evenings ago, as with most evenings, David and I were sitting in the living room, looking out our tall front windows at 12 deer (and yes, David counted.) A few weeks ago, we had some small apples that were going bad (at least for humans…I wasn’t gonna use them for anything) soContinue reading “Throwing Apples”
