Restricted Vision, Unburdened Sight
Sometimes the things you can't see help you see more clearly!
I wasn’t anxious yesterday. But I could feel anxiety sitting around me. I had a visit with my retina specialist. It would have been the day before, but he was in surgery all day. Because it was a work-in visit, I waited over two hours. It is interesting to sit in a waiting room and … Continue reading See Where We Should Depend on God
I was really thirsty. I wanted an icy, refreshing fountain drink. Yet I poured another one down the drain and finally said, “No more.” A Major fast food restaurant — famous for its fountain drinks — has disappointed me for months. I kept hoping it was just a mix issue or faulty equipment that would … Continue reading Viewing the Well of Eternal Refreshment
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
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
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!”
God has given us His Word as a guide for how we are to live out our Christian walk and how we are to follow the model that Jesus lived out for us. He has also given us the gift of the Holy Spirit to guide us in that walk.
A bitter sweet memory popped up on my phone this morning. It was a blurry picture of a little girl being trailed by a dog. When we first moved to the little white house with the black shutters, there was a neighborhood dog that adopted us. The dog actually belonged to a family that lived a … Continue reading His Eye is Not Only on the Sparrow
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 post’s passage reference: Psalm 119:13-18. I have been moving things around a little bit here. With no field vision and very little peripheral vision, I can’t make big changes at one time. I stand the chance of causing myself to have a fall. I moved a single foot stool around the other day and … Continue reading Visualize What Comfortable Is
