Of Patience and Pears!

So we're in a 'temporary' housing situation that at times has been trying, but we have survived. I don't always feel like I've actually conquered it, but at least with God's hand, I've been standing my ground, or at least, a year later, I'm still here!

Last winter, I would walk by a house with a [...]

What’s Your Style?

So I wanted this website to have more of a blog style. A little less formal – a little more relaxed – just the walking it out day-to-day. Some thoughts, some art, some preachin', some dreaming…with the hopes of it being a little more active!

I didn't think I was doing a good job at all, [...]

I’ll Go…

It may not be on the mountain’s height,Or over the stormy sea;It may not be at the battle’s front,My Lord will have need of me;But if by a still, small voice He calls,To paths that I do not know,I’ll answer, dear Lord, with my hand in Thine,I’ll go where You want me to go.

Perhaps today [...]

Yo, Yo-Yo!

Does something look out of place in the picture below?

 

 

 

How about this one?

 

 

Seems people have been finding things to do with strings for thousands of years! All the way from the Americas, China, Greece and the Philippines. And even though there are a few rumors of a simular item used as a weapon, they all [...]

Surprise Me!

So I started my morning off with breakfast huddled before my computer, 22 degrees outside and hot cocoa steaming in my cup. I was a little bored at the prospect of a same old day, looking at the same ol' internet sites, asking the same ol' questions and wanting just to feel even a small [...]

The Smallest — The Biggest

You know, we don't always have to think of something big.

 

If the little foxes are what can destroy, then it's also the little things that can build.

Most of us know we're not to despise small beginnings, but we keep doing it anyway. Oh, it's subtle, our rejection of our own [...]

While It Is Still Today

Tommorrow they are coming to spray our home for bugs. Yeah!

But we have to get ready; make sure everything is straightened and in its place.

They need to be able to get to the walls and corners.

They can't spray if they can't get to anywhere.

To save space, we tend to stack and push everything up against [...]

A Super Thought

Here's a thought –

  What Superman struggled with all his life was the elements from his own home planet. 

  The invincible left vulnerable by even a small piece of the dirt that had birthed him, that he thought he had left behind.

  What gave him strenth and ability?

   Keeping himself present in his new life, [...]

Without Knowing

Oswald Chambers, My Utmost For His Highest, January 2:

"He went out, not knowing whither he went." Hebrews 11:8. Have you been "out" in this way? If so, there is no logical statement possible when anyone ask you what you are doing…You do not know what you are going to do; the [...]

In “What-so-ever State”

Okay, so I'm back. Man, a lot has happened in just a few short months. Here I was going to write pretty often and then my world kind of took an extra spin. And when I'm not real settled in, I have a harder time being creative and writing (well, that [...]
