The battle of the last three years is once again changing. This enemy keeps changing the rules and each time I take the bait and let fear, worry, and sorrow cloud out God, good, and promises. As many of you know, my hero, my… Continue Reading “I am, I will”

If you’re scared, I can relate. If you’re worried, me too. And if safe isn’t how you feel, well I get it, but it isn’t true. There are mornings I wake up hopeful and I can sigh with ‘it was a good day’ by… Continue Reading “Safe Arms”

On repeat through my mind this week has been the chorus to a sweet song rephrasing Psalm 23. Ever read any books from an actual shepherd’s perspective on Psalm 23? It makes so clear why this may be the most beloved Psalm of them… Continue Reading “You alone”

As I try and choose words, my fears want to crowd out truth. We have friends, family in the flooded and devastated areas of Florida, Georgia, North Carolina. How does one recover after two feet of water floods your house in the middle of… Continue Reading “Uncertainty”

Last week I was open and vulnerable with you – definitely not how I usually operate. I’m guessing you might not be that way either. I introduced the subject of suffering – in all it’s myriad forms: physical and/or emotional pain, fear (also known… Continue Reading “Time – for Truth”

Laying in bed longing for a good night’s sleep I started to ask God “Just this one thing” – when I realized that really I want a lot more than one thing. No, nothing material, not money or things. No, nothing self-fulfilling, not popularity… Continue Reading “One Thing”

I’m not particularly athletic. At times I can be clumsy. But one thing I love, and wish I had started when I was much younger, is hiking in the mountains. I can’t do the strenuous trails. But I can walk long and slow and… Continue Reading “Must Listen”

So, have I mentioned lately I don’t like change, the unexpected, surprises? I think I’m a slow learner. (Best not to mention things we don’t like.) All three of those things happened at once last week. I’m not alone, grandsons don’t like change either.… Continue Reading “Can’t Wait…”

When I began homeschooling I discovered there are different learning styles. One of those is the visual learner. I’m a visual – if I can see it, I can learn it, I can do it. Since then I’ve also learned that I prefer knowing… Continue Reading “Let’s See”

As I ponder words – a storm is brewing. Strong – full of wind, rain, lightening – a force for destruction. Will we be in it’s path? What will it reap? Questions swirl like a hurricane’s eye. But time and again over the last… Continue Reading “Such a Difference…”
