A Snapshot of a Nation

851) We live in a country that supposedly embraces everyone. We take pride because people can live in the U.S. and be of different races and religions. I believe these things are true, but not to the extent we would like to think. There are people who live in the U.S. who are treated poorly

Peace Examined

850) When you hear the word peace, what do you picture? I see myself sitting on a swing on a porch in the cool of the morning. I hear birds singing and a breeze in the trees. I crave times like this, and I am reminded of the value of peace. The life we live

Food Coloring in Water

849) When I need to illustrate to my students what kind of impact our actions have on others, I have sometimes used a bowl of water. I have the students gather around it and I take a small bottle of food coloring. I squeeze out one tiny drop into the water and as they watch,

Gifts

Page 126 – The Bottle House Gifts Chaplain Miller nodded. “Each strength and gift we have on this earth is also an area of vulnerability. For me, I’m an organized person, and because of that, I find it very difficult to work in an atmosphere of chaos. I’m also a good listener, and perhaps I

What are you Hungry For?

847) I love the holiday season, beginning with Thanksgiving and culminating in Christmas. There are many reasons for this but one of them is because I can cook some of our favorite dishes. My little dog loves the holidays, too, because he gets to “guard” the turkey in the oven as it cooks. He sits

Power Under Control

846) Each of us has a variety of powers. We have the power to speak. We have the power to think. We have the power to love or hate. When we read in Matthew 5:5 that the “meek will inherit the earth” the word, meek, as used in the Greek of the New Testament, means

Love and Pain

845) Pain is a reality of life on this earth and the greater you love, the bigger the pain. For example, you have a pet that you love and when you lose it; the pain is huge. Many of us spend way too much time trying to avoid pain, but in doing so, you squelch

Who Inherits?

844) Christianity differs from every other religion. One of its distinctions is the fact that “salvation” and/or “heaven” cannot be purchased. Some may think, Come on, I don’t know of any other religion that can be purchased. Yet, this is a fact. When you have a system in place that outlines exactly what you must
