Restricted Vision, Unburdened Sight
Sometimes the things you can't see help you see more clearly!
I was talking to my cousin today about some disturbing situations going on around the world. I told her that I have turned the news off. I miss the days when Walter Cronkite reported the news. He did it without a bigoted agenda twinkling in his eye. He simply read the news. You have to … Continue reading God’s Peace Looks Like Comfort
I pulled the milk out of the refrigerator today. I gave it a hard shake. Every single time that I do this—and I do this most every time I get the milk out of the refrigerator—a moment in time floods my memory bank that brings a smile. It is interesting how an essentially unremarkable incident … Continue reading Someone Is Always Watching
I am kind of diving right into this blog head long. It is a topic that has been on my heart for a long time, and one of the reasons I began this blog. It is aimed straight at myself. I may lose a few followers because of this one. That is OK. The Most … Continue reading Looks Like We Are Back to Fruit Again
I have generally been accused of being a Pollyanna. I try to look at most things in a positive light. I am not a big talker, especially if I am around people that I do not know. In that instance, I tend to measure my words a little more closely. I find that when I … Continue reading Looking to Tame the Tongue
This post’s Scripture passage reference: Psalm 119:172-176 When we first moved to Tennessee as a family of six, it was a whole new world. Even though the area we moved to is considered small, it is much, much bigger than either of the places we had lived before. We felt like we were coming to … Continue reading Living in the Light of Christ
This post’s Scripture passage reference: Psalm 119:153-159. Do you go through times that, although everything seems to be going good and you can’t pinpoint any specific issues in your life, you just feel “off?” You are a bit anxious or on edge and you don’t know why. I think I have pinpointed in my life … Continue reading Identify the Need to Be Revived
This blog’s Scripture passage reference: Psalm 119:121-125 There has been a song playing recently on my favorite Christian radio station. It is very lyrical and easy to listen to, a beautiful song. But I have to admit that I did not really understand what the singer was saying in the chorus for a long time. … Continue reading Seeing with Clarity the Testimonies of God
This blog’s Scripture passage reference: Psalm 119:107-112 Yes, it is football playoff time for a lot of high schools around the country. I was talking to a friend on the phone yesterday. She was telling me about a group of young men that have a really big challenge coming up for them this weekend. They … Continue reading Let God See Your Heart
This post’s passage reference: Psalm 119:94-97 Thursday morning I had some letters ready to put in the mailbox. I put my little jacket on over top of my pajamas and headed down the hill toward the mailbox. Right before I got to the bottom of the hill, a little blue car turned into my driveway. … Continue reading When Others Look at Me, Will They See That I Have Served Faithfully?
This post’s passage reference: Psalm 119:90-93 I saw a post a few years ago that talked about how we should be praying scripture over our family every day. For many years I had already been sending my family members a good morning text with a Bible verse included. It started out, on my ancient flip … Continue reading Light Up the Dark
