Is a shout-out the same as boasting? I think not. Boasting is about me. A shout-out is about others. So many shout-outs – my heart is full. Because I will be away, I’ve spent time in Idaho and Texas with my children and grandchildren. I will be back soon but these memories are precious: hikes,…
Boast Not
James 4:14-16 “…yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. Instead you ought to say, ‘If the Lord wills, we will LIVE (yes, God is in charge of that too) and do this or that’. As…
The First Mission Field
Thank you for following me as I work at following Jesus. I make a habit of reading the daily devotions in Our Daily Bread. On Monday, I read Deuteronomy 4:9-14 and I hope this all sounds familiar. Quoting the devotion, “One of the most wonderful ways parents and grandparents can influence their children is by…
Let Me Tell You About Bob
My name was supposed to be Robert as was both of my sisters. My older sister was supposed to be Robert Patrick. She is Patricia. My younger sister was supposed to be Robert Terrell and she is Teresa. I was supposed to be Robert Gene and I am Pamela Jean. Were my parents disappointed? Maybe…
Today’s Prayer
PRAISING OUR GOD: So much to be grateful for. Open doors and provision for this missions trip and training. It is looking good and then I learn that my visa application was misplaced but is now found! Thank the Lord. Please pray that the timeline will be met and I will have visa in hand…
What Is Being Added
Thank you for following me as I try to follow Jesus. I last wrote about downsizing in preparation for this new season of serving. That is an action of thoughtful dispersing. I have a note-to-self which reads, “Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful”….

Sorry;( Select the last option – Send Pam (not the Pam C option – keep scrolling down) – and thank you for supporting missions sending and supporting me as I try to follow Jesus in this next season. God bless you!
Simple Is Not Always Simple
Thank you for following me as I work at following Jesus. It is only a table and now belongs to the son of one of my dearest friends. I’m “simplifying”. I need increased mobility in this next season of service in other places. It is one more reminder that we can’t take it with us….
Missions: The Why
The sun was shining through the window on a Sunday after church. I was five and had learned about Heaven that day and told my Mom I was going. She explained how I get to Heaven and I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior. No turning back. Baptized at nine, camp counselor, youth and…
What Was He Thinking?
What was he thinking? They thought the man walking on water was a ghost but it was Jesus. Peter was all in with joining the miracle. Don’t you know people like that who want to be in the middle of good things that they had no part in creating? I guess it is human nature….
