Sometimes the things you can't see help you see more clearly!
I was walking through the house today and did something silly. It was nothing to write home about, but just struck me as humorous. Then the next thought that hit me was. “And I did not make a song out of it.” There was no silly singing like I would have done a month ago. … Continue reading Silly Songs Are Out of Sight
I received a text from a friend this morning with a Bible verse and a word of encouragement. The scripture was Romans 5:3-4. They were talking about prayer and how when things are going good and life is easy that we don’t always take the time to pray—you know, real knee bending, heart aching, soul … Continue reading Let Prayer Illuminate Your Whole Life
I am definitely old enough to have learned this lesson way earlier than this year, quite recently actually — a better way to use a potato peeler. Who knew there could be a better way? Prior to the potato peeler I would peel potatoes with a knife, and, yes, I butchered them. I ended up cutting … Continue reading Observing Lessons from a Potato Peeler
We take so much for granted in this modern age that we live in. With the touch of a button we can be at the other side of the world, exploring deserts, mountains and forests, immersing ourselves in the culture and customs of other lands… maybe not in person, but the eye gate can still … Continue reading I Know Who I Am Through Christ; But Do Others See Who I Am I For Christ?
I was talking with some ladies this past week about coming up with some ministry ideas that would benefit the community and help folks that are in need. Then later in the week I was speaking to another lady on the phone and she was telling me that she is involved in something similar to … Continue reading Visualize What Building Each Other Up Looks Like

I think maybe there was a time when people had more respect for God, for others and for themselves. Respect for … Continue reading Examine Love and Forgiveness in Your Heart
This was one of the first random blog ideas I had written down in my idea notebook back in 2017, when I initially began my blog. I was thinking about the wisdom needed for decisions that we make in life and how every decision, even a small one, has an effect on yourself and/or others. I … Continue reading Gazing at the Ripples in the Water
Sometimes you pray and you pray…and you pray for a circumstance to turn out the way you want it to. You want that great job. You want that great relationship and then marriage. You want your children to be strong and healthy. You want your life to be good. Those are not evil things to … Continue reading Recognize the Wonders of God
I talked recently about taking some time completely away from social media, and that included most television. For the past three weeks I have been mostly off line, with just enough to research and post my blogs. I really have not missed it. I told someone that for the past three weeks I have been … Continue reading Light and Strength
It seems like we are always trying to get out of something. When you are in school as a child you can’t wait to get out for summer break. When you are in high school or college you can’t wait to graduate and get out on your own. I have been in vehicles before that … Continue reading Can You See the Way In
