Truly Seeing God

Yesterday was one of “those days.”  Nothing horrible happened,  I was productive in getting a few things checked off my to do list, and I went through the day in an emotional funk.  I will even admit that about 12:30, I gave up and put my pajama pants back on

The Good Spot

I love a good story.  Ever since learning to read, I could get lost in a book.  My summer memories tend to center around the summer reading challenge that the local library always held.  I even had a secret reading spot in a hidden opening tucked in one of our front

One Year

Today is an anniversary.  I looked up the word anniversary, I don’t want you to think I’ve completely lost it,  I do know what it means…  and I wondered if perhaps there was more to the definition than I was aware.  It’s basic meaning is what we all think: “a

Motivation

Sometimes, when I sit in my chair in the early morning to talk to Jesus, he wallops me.  I’m thankful Jesus doesn’t use a frying pan, and I’m thankful I don’t spill my morning coffee all over my lap.  Jesus walloped me this morning.  He caught me off guard by

Living out Jesus’ Plan

I have grown up being told Bible stories.  I have experienced flannel graph, records (actual records!) of Bible stories being told, Sunday School, church services, The Bible Man cassette tapes, Veggie tales on VHS and more.  I have heard the story of Jesus feeding the 5,000 with a boys lunch

Joining the Angels

Today is the day after mid term elections.  There was a proposal on the ballot for the small, Oregon town that I live in that has caused quite a bit of controversy and division.  There have been committees and meetings and people showing up in mass when the Chamber of

Staying Free

I have been on a diet.  I realized early on in the summer that I had gained some pesky pounds and that my clothes just didn’t fit as well as they should.  I’m not a fan of dieting.  I prefer to eat whatever I want (that I rationalize I am

Transparency

As a small child I was not fond of meat.  Regardless of my preference, my mom seemed to serve some sort of meat with every meal.  If it was hidden in a casserole with yummy noodles and a thick layer of cheese on top, all was good.  If it was
