Do you ever have that feeling that you’re just doing something to get to the next thing? I think most everyone has at one point or another. Some of us have spent a very large part of our lives in that place. Recently, I was made aware in such a moment of how I might …

You Are Loved
I don’t remember if anyone told me as a kid that God loved me. I’m pretty sure that I must have at least heard references to it since I went to a Catholic grade school. There aren’t a whole lot of memory references to that time period. As a teen, if someone would have said …
Miniature ‘Memory’ Books
Mini ‘memory’ books were today’s project for Paint Your Way to Peace. Heavy stress has caused me to forget things, sometimes important things. It has affected relationships and other areas. I have prayed for solutions to combat this. One of the solutions that have come to me is these little memory books. The book on …

Who Can You Trust?
It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in humans. It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in princes. (Ps.118:8-9 NIV) As I was reading these verses I felt the Lord speak to me about resources. It seems that the current financial landscape is teetering. Many …

Big God
I’m so thankful that God has a bigger attention span than me. When there are many things going on in the world, and in our own personal worlds, it can feel overwhelming. It can feel like we become smaller and smaller while being surrounded by mountains. Troubles continue. They are a part of living. …
Learning to Trust
I became born again when I was about 19 years old. It’s been over thirty years now. From the very beginning, it has been a walk of learning to trust. I had many fears, though I didn’t admit this to others. God knew the hurts that no one else could see. He knew the …
Firm and Gentle
There were few people in my youth who were willing, and maybe able, to be both firm and gentle, or loving. As a feeling person, that has not always been me. It takes a certain courage and boldness as well as love. This is something I still hope and strive for, not necessarily something that …
Freedom
Freedom, the word has seemed vague and illusive to me at times. In different situations and conversations it can have different meanings. What keeps us from being free to do what we are called to do? 2Peter 1:3 says, “His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our …
