Drinking deeply of the Living Word

God’s “Blog”

When I go to all the trouble to write down what’s on my heart, it can sometimes be disappointing to find that very few people take the time to read what I’ve written. I know people are busy; I’m busy too. We have to choose how we are going to spend our time, and sometimes… Read More God’s “Blog”

Identity: Lost and Found

One of the biggest problems with becoming the ex-wife of an ex-missionary, and myself believing myself to be an ex-missionary, is a loss of identity (identity theft of a different sort). · I lost my husband – I was his ex-favorite, · I lost my job and financial support, · I lost my residence, ·… Read More Identity: Lost and Found

Praise is beautiful on you

“I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.” (Psalm 34:1 NASB) Wa-wa-wait a minute! Back up a second! What did that say? Praise. Continually? You mean I can’t yell at my kids when they make me mad? Praise.  Continually. You mean I can’t insult that driver that… Read More Praise is beautiful on you

Dancing Willow in Spirit Wind

This morning I was looking out the kitchen window after washing a few dishes. The springtime wind was blowing from the south in energetic gusts and animating the light, flexible, willow branches, making them look like fairy tale dancers in a wild, leaping ballet. As the huge, flexible broom swept back and forth in front… Read More Dancing Willow in Spirit Wind

How to be free to love

“For lack of wood the fire goes out, and where there is no whisperer, contention quiets down.  Like charcoal to hot embers and wood to fire, so is a contentious man to kindle strife.  He who hates disguises it with his lips, but he lays up deceit in his heart.  When he speaks graciously, do… Read More How to be free to love

Five Favorite Bible Stories

It’s interesting to talk with others to find out which are their favorite Bible stories and why those are their favorites.  I think the older I get, the more favorites I have, because something in each one touches something deep in my heart and causes me to relate to one or more of the people… Read More Five Favorite Bible Stories

Deep Thoughts concerning the Easter story

In order to deep sea dive for the treasure of the story of Christ’s resurrection, we must first mention a word that is often allocated to one or two months at the end of each year — Christmas. No, not jingle bells or snow or Christmas trees or Santa, but rather the birth of the… Read More Deep Thoughts concerning the Easter story

Cool Warmth

Cool Warmth. What does that look like? Let’s imagine that it looks like a day in the dead of winter. You don’t have a garage, so when you go out to your car, you find it is about 10 degrees Fahrenheit inside. You bundle up and bring your toasty heating pad, freshly microwaved, or maybe… Read More Cool Warmth

Don’t Give Up

This morning I played a piano solo at church. With God’s help it turned out pretty well, although I made a few mistakes.  But I kept on going.  I couldn’t just stop playing because I made a mistake. I mean how crumby would that be, to get everyone’s hopes up to hear some music by… Read More Don’t Give Up

Obstacles to having an intimate relationship with God

1.  In a general sense, there is only one obstacle to having an intimate relationship with God. That one obstacle is sin, which can be any form of disobedience to God. It has plagued the human race since Adam and Eve disobeyed God in the Garden of Eden. But what makes us go there? 2. … Read More Obstacles to having an intimate relationship with God
