Not too many years ago, my husband, Jono, gave me a $100.00 bill. He said, “Dee, this is your emergency money. Tuck it away and only use it if you have an emergency!” “Great idea”, I thought!
Several months later Jono asked me how my emergency money was? “Oh, I don’t have it anymore!” I said. “Really? You didn’t tell me you had an emergency! What happened?” Jono asked. I replied sheepishly, “There was a really fabulous shoe sale!” Exasperated, Jono smirked, “Well girlfriend, you’re on your own from now on!”
Now thankfully I don’t have quite the shoe fetish that Emelda Marcos has. I mean I don’t have 2,500 pairs of shoes! Let’s face it! I didn’t use my resources well! Thankfully we have a God who is our constant resource. He’s always there whether we have an emergency or not! Let’s just pray we aren’t only calling him for emergencies!
Did I learn my lesson? I think so! Next time I’ll just use my Discover card!

Although Dee Ann has been singing for years, she felt God’s pull on her heart to intensely focus on strengthening others’ walk with Christ through music. Since Dee Ann has spent many years around horses she understands that to spur her horse is to encourage it to do what it may know to do but not want to do. As a Christian we sometimes need to be directed and encouraged to head in the right direction in our Christian walk. Hebrews 10:24 states, “And let us consider how to spur one another on to love and good deeds.” So, Spur Us On officially began in 2002 to specifically encourage other Christians to be what God wanted them to be when He first thought of them. Dee Ann is available for revivals, seminars and concerts. Please keep this ministry in your prayers as it continues to grow.
