New Traditions
By
Ruth Graham
Well, we made it through the 2nd holiday of the season…two more to go. I counted Halloween as the first though I’d rather not! Then Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years. I wonder why they all seem to congregate at the end of the year plus there is all the year-end financial rush to be sure…
General Petraeus and When Giants Fall
By
Ruth Graham
I posted this to my other blog this morning and thought I would share it here. Let’s not forget to pray for the General and his family. We may never get the true story. I find it suspect that this came out at this time. But behind the headlines is a very real family. I…
A New Day
By
Ruth Graham
The country has decided. Mr. Obama will lead this country for another four years. Whether you voted for him or for Governor Romney, please pray for both men. They campaigned hard for their vision of America and gave their all. Unfortunately in any contest there is a winner and a loser. Mr. Romney lost. His…
Election Day!

Ruth Graham
Well…at last the day is upon us! I don’t know about you but I am weary of the political season that seems to go on full time…never ends. As soon as tomorrow is over – if it is over tomorrow – they will begin the campaigns for 2014…then 2016. The time and money spent ona…
Historic Storm – Does It Mean Anything?
By
Ruth Graham
Wow! We are being hit with an historic storm of major proportions. Apocalyptic? That word has been used. It is an important question to ask. What is going on? Have we ever seen so many troubling things at one time? Everything is in “historic proportions”. Earthquakes. Epidemics. New diseases, old ones returning. Greed and corruption. Storms.…
What Happened to Confession?
By
Ruth Graham
It takes courage to be honest about your failures and flaws. I admire those that can take ownership of their “stuff”. If we are honest, most of us like to put on the “I’ve got my stuff together” face and think we are fooling folks. Well, we may get away with it – for a…
Who Am I?
By
Ruth Graham
Well, now you know a little bit about being Billy Graham’s daughter! It is part of what I am, not who I am. I get a kick out of the way people view me – as if I don’t live in the real world! After my assistant started working for me the ladies in her…
Living with Billy Graham
By
Ruth Graham
BeliefNet is posting a piece I did about my father and his relationship to the various presidents he has know…all since Harry Truman. A unique position to have. His long career had him in relationship with the high and mighty and the low and powerless. What was it like to be his child? I can…
“Conventional” Wisdom
By
Ruth Graham
Well, we are in our second week of political overload. I am watching the speeches with interest. And I think my blood pressure is rising! But then I turn to the scripture and am reassured stat God is in control. We are bombarded with verbiage – and much of it eloquent – about a variety…
Deep Needs, an Abundance of Oil, Rainbows, God’s Blessings
By
Ruth Graham
For those of you who follow me on twitter you know I heard a grand sermon yesterday. One of my pastor’s outstanding quotes was, “God uses our deepest needs to give us His richest blessings.” I have certainly found that to be true. There was a song several years ago that asked, “What if my…
