NO
I love Fridays! I love the moment when I walk out of the office, knowing that I’m done for the week, and looking forward to the time I get to spend with my daughter. This particular Friday, the weather had finally warmed up, melting some of the snow and the sun was high in the […]
It’s a lie, well some of it!
As I was listening to today’s K-Love broadcast in the car, one of their news feature was how teens and young adults were having difficulty expressing their feelings because of social media. They were looking at other people’s posted lives and saying how ‘perfect’ their lives were and comparing their real lives to...
Prayer
It seems fitting that after my study lesson this week entitled ‘Prayer’, a devotion I read on prayer the same morning only a few moments after seeing the title of the study, and going to church and receiving a beautiful prayer journal from my ‘secret sister’. The irony of this gift is that within the […]
Clean?
A couple of weeks ago I came home and my beloved fish was sitting in the bottom of the tank. He was under the little bush in the tank. I tapped the outside, hard. No movement. I got very sad. My previous fish lasted almost 2.5 years. This one only lasted a year. I was […]
Family and friends
Years ago, when I got married, I unintentionally let my friendships suffer. While it was not intentional, I thought being married meant I needed to spend all my non-working time with my spouse. I did not do a good job of maintaining my close friendships and family relationships. When my marriage started suffering, I felt […]
The Shunammite Woman
A few days ago, I was impressed to re share the story I had originally posted on the widow’s oil because I had re read 2 Kings 4. The continuation of that particular chapter tells of the story of the Shunammite’s son being restored to life. The Shunammite woman was described as a ‘well-to-do woman’. […]
Are you limiting God?
This post was first shared around June 20th, but it’s been on my mind all morning as I read the story of the widow’s oil in my devotion this morning. I think someone, including me, needs this reminder. Are you limiting God? I recently heard a story of a man who went fishing. […]
Do you feel lost?
Have you ever felt lost? Once again, I was half watching cartoons with my daughter as I got ready. Parents, please pay attention to the programs your children are watching, there might be subtle and not so subtle things in there, but I digress. This particular one was the family was going to the mall. […]
What is your talent?
I’ve mentioned before that I love watching cartoons with my daughter. This morning, as she woke up much earlier than needed, and I still had my routine to follow, I allowed her to watch one of her programs. One of the main characters was in charge of putting together a talent show. He had to […]
My plans vs. God’s plans
I’m a planner by nature. I plan out all the things I intend to do, usually days or weeks in advance. I had made all my plans for what I needed to do this particular Saturday, and there were a lot of items on the to do list. Some of them routine, some out of […]
