I’m here typing late at night when I should be working. Today I learned of a possibility of another client. God is good. Maybe a touch of melancholy has touched me. More likely it’s tiredness. There’s a feeling like my life is in the middle of another big change. Have you ever had a feeling [...]

Missing It By 1 Degree
An evangelist that was at our church recently talked about this and it has stuck with me – so I’m sharing. He used the example of taking a ship to England, and said… If you are just one degree off at the beginning of your course you will be many miles off at the finish. [...]
Precariously Hanging in There
Good morning, afternoon, evening or anything in between. My first grader’s Bible paper for today says “God is a God of order.” Ouch. If someone came into my house today they would not think that I believe in order. I’ll be back tomorrow.
Am I Reaching?
This Wisteria tree is constantly reaching. It blooms beautifully in the spring, and continues to grow all summer. It puts branches out up high and down low. No matter how many times we trim it back it keeps on growing. It goes straight through the other plants on the ground and keeps on growing. As [...]
Dog Blankets and God’s Will
We took an old towel and smoothed it in the bottom of the puppy’s crate. He immediately bit at it, scrunched it, stomped on it, folded it, dug at it – you get the picture. It’s not smooth anymore. God has a perfect will for us and our lives. He had it all smoothed it [...]

Back Online
I find myself reluctant to jump back into the online world. Last week at church camp there was no cell phone signal and no internet. I thought I would miss it, but I did not. The chapel times morning and evening were good – some fun, some thought provoking. The girls in my cabin [...]
Thought Provoking Picture
My husband took this picture. He saw it one week and captured it the next, but he doesn’t like the way it turned out. I think it’s really neat! A bunch of analogies have flitted through my mind. I’m going to just let the picture speak for itself. For more Wordless Wednesday posts visit the [...]
Electronics My Children Expect to Have
As a little girl I expected to have ceiling lights that worked from a switch, an electric washing machine, dryer, toaster, and vacuum. That’s just things that were in our house. My children expect to have all those things plus… remote controls cordless house phones cell phones navigational systems in the car iPods or other [...]
Cleaning the House For [Hopefully] the Last Time
This week we had to go clean our house that is for sale. It was dusty and dirty from sitting for so long. The feelings that came the last time I walked in that door were not as strong this time. I carried boxes through that door with my engagement ring on my left hand. [...]
