Fear Knot?
I’m realizing days in this world often speak these words: ‘Lord, why?’ Whether it’s the saddest of stories half a world away, or right at home in what seems the worst. Ken Ham (Answers In Genesis founder) says “I now see God was using… Continue Reading “Fear Knot?”
Last Time…
Sometimes we never know – when the last time of something will be. This crazy world has us saying ‘It’s Friday already’ or ‘It’s Monday again’. Time whirls by and we go through each day as though we always will. We set aside certain… Continue Reading “Last Time…”
Have Fun…
Remember your mom calling after you as you went out to play: ‘Have fun…’ ? It’s a bit hard to recall just how that works. How does one have fun when the bills pile high, the workload grows, sad things creep in? I have… Continue Reading “Have Fun…”

Treasures that someday will be found and the finder will wonder ‘what on earth’ – precious to the maker at the time and forever to… Continue Reading “Made With Love By…”
Learning Living…
Sometimes you just have to be quiet to hear. That’s hard for me. You? I’m busy even when I’m not busy. If I’m sitting, I’m kicking my leg or tapping my feet. Sit still? Be quiet? It’s sounds great, but that old saying… Continue Reading “Learning Living…”
Surrounded…
A nine hour drive to the hospital. Anxious thoughts surrounded the miles. The sky was already dark pulling into the parking lot even though it was only 5:30. Bitter cold surrounded me as I stepped out. How does one say goodbye while still… Continue Reading “Surrounded…”
Sweeping…
For me January is that time I want to clean everything, get rid of ‘stuff’, have a place for everything…sweeping away the cobwebs and dust of what was to prepare for what will be. Sweeping the driveway is this kind of useless effort that… Continue Reading “Sweeping…”
