On my journey to reclaim my health, there have been so many people who have encouraged me in different ways. Many have prayed for me. Loads of people send encouragement through posts and messages on social media. Some have given financially, and others have given in a variety of thoughtful ways.

My best friend even helped replace my wardrobe at Goodwill, and while I’ve been shopping there, there have been kind people who quietly picked up the tab so I could have clothes that actually fit again.

This week someone gave me beautiful flowers to plant so I can enjoy the spring and summer ahead.

Linda Bowen makes incredibly gorgeous birdhouses. If you’ve never seen them, you should look her up on Marketplace. My sister Kim went with me to pick up a couple of birdhouses from her, and during our conversation she invited me to take a look at some of her daylilies.

While we were there, she helped me dig up daylilies, Lenten roses, daffodils, and many other bulbs and perennials. Then she said, “This is my gift to you.”

Can I tell you… that went straight to the heart of my soul.

Her gift of plant life encouraged me to plant for my future — quite literally.

Kim and I had a ball hauling the bulbs home and sorting them, and this weekend sweet Alina and Andrew helped me get them planted.

It just goes to show that we all have the capacity to give in one way or another.

Over the last two weeks, I have devoted most of my energy to producing a CD project for Billy Burrell, launching the birthday card campaign for his 96th birthday and then helping host his birthday party. . It honestly took all the energy I had — and then some. But God provided strength, and even in the midst of everything I’m walking through, He gave me the ability to give what I could. It brought me great joy.

I’m not bragging on myself — because the truth is, Scripture reminds us: as you sow, so shall you reap. As we give, the gifts come back to meet our needs and even some of our wants.

I am so thankful for people who hear God’s voice and respond with kindness.

I continue to depend on the support of this amazing community, and I can promise you this: as God provides, I will return that support in the ways He has gifted me to do so.

I love each and every one of you — whether you are my friend or even my critic.

And I pray for our community and our country.

Now come on little flowers let's grow a bright and colorful future!

Before the harmonies… there was simply Billy.

At the beginning of this recording, you’ll hear a brief but profound introduction Billy gives to the song. The exuberance of youth and the passion in his voice truly says it all.

This recording was captured over 40 years ago on a simple cassette tape with just Billy and a piano. His voice was strong, full of faith, and already touching hearts.

Today we’re sharing another one of those beautiful moments preserved in time.

Enjoy “His Eye Is on the Sparrow” from Billy Burrell. 🎵

Today we release another song from a very special project with my dear friend Billy Burrell.

Over 40 years ago Billy recorded these hymns on a simple cassette tape with only a piano accompaniment. Recently he asked me if I would add a harmony vocal to some of them.

Singing with Billy across the decades has been one of the greatest honors of my life.

I hope this song blesses you today as much as it blessed me to be part of it. ❤️

How Great Thou ArtRecorded over 40 years ago with only piano and voice, Billy Burrell’s heartfelt performance of this timeless hymn was preserved on cassette...

Ladies and gentlemen, it is truly my honor and privilege to share with you a very special treasure — a vintage recording of Billy Burrell singing the sacred hymn The Eastern Gate.

This recording was made nearly 40 years ago on a simple cassette, capturing Billy’s voice and heart in a beautiful moment of worship. Recently, we were able to bring that recording into digital form, preserving it so it can be shared and enjoyed by so many more people.

At Billy’s request, I had the sweet privilege of adding a harmony vocal to this song and a few others in this precious and timeless collection. Getting to step into that moment with him across the years has been one of the most meaningful experiences of my life.

What makes it even more special is this — when Billy recorded this, he was about the same age I am now. In a beautiful way, it feels like we’ve been able to bridge time together through music and faith.

I pray this song blesses your heart as deeply as it has blessed mine.

Spring always feels like a season of hope. 🌿

Maybe you’re counting down the days to a grandbaby visit, tickets to a ballgame, a concert, a vacation… or maybe you’re just looking forward to a quiet Saturday morning with coffee on the porch.

Those little things on the calendar can carry us through the week.

So tell me… what’s something good you’re looking forward to right now?

I’d love to hear it. 💚

Today I had one of those moments that felt almost sacred.

I stepped into the recording studio to add a simple background vocal to some hymns Billy Burrell recorded more than 40 years ago. Back then it was captured on a cassette tape… which tells you just how far back this recording goes.

But when they pressed play, something amazing happened.

There was Billy’s voice — strong, joyful, and full of life. Hearing him like that felt like stepping through a doorway in time. For a moment it didn’t feel like an old recording at all. It felt like I had gone back 40 years and was standing beside a younger Billy in the studio.

I went in thinking I was doing him a favor.

Truth is… it ended up being one of the greatest blessings to me.

Getting to add my voice quietly alongside his on these hymns is something I will treasure. And knowing these songs are being restored and preserved — moving from an old cassette tape into something that can be shared for many years to come — makes it even more special.

We’ll be releasing them as part of Billy’s big 96th birthday celebration, and I cannot wait for everyone to hear them.

What a gift to be included in something that honors a life, a voice, and a legacy that has blessed so many people.

My heart is very full tonight.

Today was a GOOD day. 💛

I got to sit beside Mr. Billy and read cards with him — and y’all… he just received his 66th birthday card for his 96th birthday. Every single one is opened, read aloud, and treasured. You should see his smile.

We have a goal now… let’s get him at least 96 cards for 96 years. I know we can do it.

If you’d like to bless this sweet man, send a birthday card and know that it will be read to him and bring him real joy. There is something so powerful about kindness showing up in the mailbox.

Let’s fill his 96th year with love. 💌💛

God’s provision doesn’t always arrive before the storm.
Sometimes it meets us right in the middle of it.

I’ve seen Him provide strength when I felt weak… clarity when I was confused… and peace that didn’t make sense on paper. When I look back, I can trace His fingerprints over moments I thought might undo me.

If you’re in a tough season right now, please don’t mistake the struggle for His absence. Provision is often already in motion.

Watch this video all the way through — the ending matters. And if it encourages you, would you share it? Someone you love might need this reminder today. 💛
