God’s promises
I’m sure I own multiple bibles. But my favorite is a couple’s devotional bible that I bought when I got married. I believe I’ve gotten much more use and comfort from it as a single person, than I did married. I think this is the time that God has called me to really be with […]
Smile
For a long time I saw this lady on the train platform. It could easily have been years. While we slightly acknowledged each other (if that) we never spoke. One evening, as I was walking home, I thought I saw her walking into a building in Manhattan in front of me. But I really […]
Just do it!
So, I’ve been praying about what to share with you today. It’s been a few days – and I have a commitment with God to share something about 3 times a week. I’m at that point – with seemingly nothing to share. The thought that has crossed my mind multiple times today is this – […]
Prayer
I have a tendency to frustrate myself. It’s for no other reason, that I try to think about everything (some of which I have absolutely no control), but I think and ponder about them anyway. God is trying to teach me that some of these things are not my problem and I should trust Him. […]
Vanity?
I was listening to my colleagues’ conversations a few days ago. One was telling the other about the Steve Jobs movie, and how the movie painted his character. Although he was a brilliant person, Steve had some major character defects. Steve was the co-founder of Apple, and was eventually fired from the company he started. […]
Lessons from a tomato vine
My friends are learning more about me and how these thoughts come about. They seem to come from the mundane, every day things, but somehow God is teaching me that nothing is so mundane, but there are lessons to be learned. Today’s thought is based on a picture of my tomatoes from my ‘farm’ I […]
Source of life
When I was in Jamaica some time ago, my phone died.. Literally died. Something must have been draining the battery and I didn’t realize it. It had been in my purse and was not being used. I tried plugging it into the charger for short periods and then taking it out – wanting to see […]
Guarding your heart – 2
My friend and I are constantly talking about guarding our hearts these days. Because I’ve had multiple conversations with different people on the topic, we all seem to interpret what it means differently based on our experiences. The interpretation for me that keeps coming up is proverbs 4:23. ‘Above all else, guard...
Looking for God’s hands in situations
I already shared with you how I’ll write down a title then have nothing to say on said topic for days or weeks. This title is 6 weeks old and it still amazes me when all the thoughts come together and I look through my notes and realize there was already a title, just […]
Being obedient
Oy! This morning I struggled with what I was to share. It’s still in the wee hours of the morning, but it’s also the quietest time in my home. I honestly didn’t want to get out of bed. I got to bed well after midnight, and if you know me, you know I turn into […]
