Restricted Vision, Unburdened Sight
Sometimes the things you can't see help you see more clearly!
There was a time when my faith hung on the wall of my office. It wasn’t loud. It wasn’t pushy. It didn’t quote Scripture in bold letters or ask anyone to agree with me. It simply existed—quietly, faithfully—where anyone who walked through my door could see it. It was a to-do list. Pray. Sing. Smile … Continue reading Looking at Living Faith Without a Microphone
My return trip from visiting my niece ended up being a longer day than I thought it would. The plan was to get through the flight, grab lunch, go home, get the travel crud washed off in the shower, and relax the rest of the day. As it ended up, I hit two airports, one … Continue reading Sometimes Those Visible Layers Need a Good Scrub
I got all of my “checks” done from the previous post. I made it to the airport — and through the airport! I was a little anxious flying by myself. This was the first time that I had flown by myself since the most recent vision loss. I had an escort from the check-in counter … Continue reading Don’t Be Out There Looking for Trouble
I am looking forward to beginning a new Bible study this week. Meeting together with other believers as we honor God is refreshing. It is a spiritual growth process. We examine, study and learn individually throughout the week. Then we gather together and share what we have gleaned with others. Talking about our Lord with others … Continue reading Continue to Examine God’s Word
The sixty-five-year-old oak table was distressed in a way that depicted use—depicted life. One leg lurched from a long-ago break, steadied now by a flat stone tucked beneath it. Burn marks, water rings, scratches, scars, and discoloration covered its surface. And yet, beneath the browns, grays, and charcoal shadows of use and misuse, a hint … Continue reading No Need to Look Underneath
What does home look like to you? Are you from a large family or small family? Do you have tons of aunts and uncles and cousins, or just a few family members scattered here and there? Is your family close emotionally, in proximity? Do you spend time together? Do you stay in touch? What is … Continue reading The View of Our Heavenly Home
What does your day and night look like? Can you tell them apart? Since I’ve been trying to get my schedule realigned from the past couple of years of just winging it, sometimes it is hard for me to see where the day ends and the night begins. To say my sleep schedule is out … Continue reading From the Light of Day to the Dark of Night
Saturday Blessings! I wanted to share one of my favorite passages. It means so much and it has helped me through some rough days. I hope it blesses you too. “1 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. 2 My help cometh from the Lord, which made … Continue reading I Will Lift My Eyes to the Hills
You may or may not have noticed, but in the past few days we have been walking down the Romans Road through the scripture passages I have been sharing. This is a group of verses that can help you give an overview of God's grace and the salvation that He offers all humans. These are … Continue reading Taking a Look Down the Romans Road
Where is your place of peace? Where do you go to wind down and shed all of the stresses of the world? For most people, it is definitely not out in the world. Every day that we are out there, whether we are experiencing them or not, we are surrounded by challenges, setbacks, and worries. … Continue reading Look for the Peace That God Gives
