About T.W. Allgaier

I love Jesus. If I say nothing else, that is enough. But for those curiosity seekers, I am a 61 year old former special education teacher, current part time CCM Radio Announcer and author... who is married to her high school sweetheart. We have been together for 44 years, married almost 41 of those years! We have raised two sons, who are now married, have jobs and mortgages. AND...we became grandparents to a beautiful baby girl in 2018!! We also have our furry son, a West Highland Terrier. My heart's desire is to encourage people in their daily life. I believe that the Father speaks to us all the time, sometimes I have been too busy to listen. Even during times of trials and troubles, which seem endless right now in 2021, HE is present and loves us unconditionally. Thanks for reading. ~Be Encouraged Today~ View all posts by T.W.

The Connection

My life is about to change. Disconnection is about to enter my life for approximately 8 days. We are changing our internet service provider and there will be a gap in service. Oh my, I wonder how I will survive?

I feel the need to be connected. I am told that we need telephone jacks in order to be wired correctly. We have two jacks, but they are not working at all. So, the technician will have to be paid to come and connect it. One wrong tug, move, or incorrect wiring would destroy the connection or keep it from happening! It will need to be done correctly, or the connection will not take place. Continue reading The Connection →

Simple Acceptance

Have you ever been around a new born at birth? I have been a birthing coach a few times, had my own sons…so this is melded in my heart. It cries…it is expected to cry and should cry. Do you know what usually calms that cry? It is actually a a rather universal solution….place that child in its’ momma’s arms. You will hear the soothing whispers of that mother and soon those cries disappear.

A three year old says “look what I did Mommy” This child wants Mommy to see what he did! He wants her to be proud of him.

The teen years pose a somewhat different need. Acceptance by friends and peers. Wear the right clothes, say the correct things. Continue reading Simple Acceptance →

THUMP!

My husband and I were drinking our coffee in the family room this morning. A nice, quiet Sunday morning…enjoying the drop in temperatures and the cool morning breeze.

THUMP!

It actually was louder than that…but we did not know what had happened!
~Oscar, our Westie…was at our feet. So we knew he
had not gotten into something.
~We looked outside to see if a transformer had blown.
It was good.
~The breeze was a bit strong, so maybe a large tree limb
had fallen. Nope, no limbs. Continue reading THUMP!!!! →
