I'm sitting here at my desk, looking out my window. Today it is bright and sunny. Those are the best days for me. Give me sunshine and I am a happy girl. Light means a lot to me!
What Does Our Response to Christ Look Like?
How does the way we respond to circumstances in the world affect the way that other see us? It matters. I would like to say that I have made all good decisions and that my responses have always been simple, good and covered in prayer. I know that would not be true. I think that … Continue reading What Does Our Response to Christ Look Like?
Shining Light on the Remedy
The perfect remedy to the disease of sin is the sacrifice of Christ.
Don’t Let the Consequences Slip Out of View
Consequences. I would hazard a guess to say that a lot of people don’t always think about consequences when they are making decisions, especially if they are making emotional decisions on the spur of the moment. I am at the end of the line for one of those consequences from a decision that I made … Continue reading Don’t Let the Consequences Slip Out of View
We Have All Taken, Our Eyes Off the Mark
When I was working for the University, about twenty-five or twenty-six years ago, I worked with a lady that had previously been part of the Polish Olympic archery team. (I will call her Beth here in the blog, although that was not her name.) Beth actually competed in the Olympics in Atlanta in 1996. She … Continue reading We Have All Taken, Our Eyes Off the Mark
Keep Your Eye on the Details
Do you have any idea how much water you can lose if you have a faucet that is dripping or a leaky toilet? It might actually amaze you. Last summer my water bill went up considerably from one month to the next, very considerably. I knew that I had not used a lot of extra … Continue reading Keep Your Eye on the Details
A Visible Picture to Others
Yes, I knew eventually I was going to do it. Each time that I added water to the humidifier, I told myself “deliberately” to not forget to put the lid on the tank before I flipped it back over. But each time I did it, I knew there was going to be a time when … Continue reading A Visible Picture to Others
Until I See “Forever and Ever…Amen!”
Good grief! Tax documents are coming in. That is actually not a really big deal for me, but it is the act of getting them done and in the mail that stresses me out a little bit. I don’t know why. It probably shouldn’t, because my taxes are very simple. I can use a 1040 … Continue reading Until I See “Forever and Ever…Amen!”
Help Others Be a Light in the World
I talk about summer camp from time to time here. It truly was my favorite place in the whole world when I was a child and a teenager. When I was at summer camp, I never wanted to leave. I still have friends that I met at summer camp. There were prayers that started in … Continue reading Help Others Be a Light in the World
Light to the Pathway
Sunday Blessings! Sunday is a good day to talk about God’s Word. In the first chapters of Deuteronomy Moses was reminding the people of all God had done for them and encouraging them to remain strong in the Lord. Then in chapter six he outlined specifically the ways they were to care … Continue reading Light to the Pathway
Help Us Look to Others
Have you had someone help you out when you knew they really were not able to? This could have been financially, physically, emotionally or spiritually. Then also, have you ever been able to help someone else out when you were not really able to do it? Either way it takes looking inside and having the … Continue reading Help Us Look to Others
