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

His Eye is Not Only on the Sparrow
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 →
Look for the Fingerprints of God
Sunday Blessings! Do you ever feel unseen, like you are part of the woodwork, like no one knows your name? Take this to heart. You are known. You are known by the Creator of the universe. Not only does He know your name, He is the One Who created you. Always know that … Continue reading Look for the Fingerprints of God →
Someone Is Always Watching
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 →
Looks Like We Are Back to Fruit Again
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 →
Focusing on the Promised Gift
Have you ever waited for something that you were promised would happen? It seemed to be taking a long time and you were just not sure it was going to happen? I think that is how Christmas seems for children, like it is far, far away. It is a gift you have promise of, but … Continue reading Focusing on the Promised Gift →
Examine the Grace of Love
This one may be a little long. I have so much to say and don’t really know how to say it, or how to shorten it. So I am not really worried about word count tonight. We run through life and, if we are blessed enough, we meet many people, make a number of acquaintances … Continue reading Examine the Grace of Love →
See the Silence
I posted a blog a few years ago about trying to find some quiet time between a college campus and a hotel. There was not a solitary place to be found in either location on that particular day. There was definitely no silence to be seen. Now, as we are knee deep in a time … Continue reading See the Silence →
Gaze Toward Your Gift
There are times that you don’t remember you have blanked something out of your memory bank, especially when it has been a long time since the experience. You are going along and someone mentions something about an upcoming event that they are going to participate in, so you throw your hat into the ring, even though … Continue reading Gaze Toward Your Gift →
Keep an Eye on the Path so You Don’t Stumble
You know, I may need to rethink wondering around in the mall by myself at Christmas time. It is not generally something I do a lot during really busy times anyhow. But I do sometimes tend to get a stubborn streak and think I can still do all the things I used to be able to … Continue reading Keep an Eye on the Path so You Don’t Stumble →
