Read the Signs

888) My husband teaches in a high school where he works with students in welding, residential construction, wiring, lobster trap making and more. I wonder how he does it so well because I know that my younger students have difficulties following directions. Out of need (and probably frustration), my husband has a sign he has

The Difficulty of Faith

Page 199 – The Bottle House “Stacy, there’s never a time that God is not watchingover you and acting for your good. That’s not the difficultpart of our faith. It’s easier to trust God for a miracle inour lives, but it’s much more difficult to trust when thatmiracle does not arrive. That is the difficulty

Important Ministries

887) We are all good at something. You may be good at math or understanding human nature. You may sing beautifully or you have the knack for organization. These abilities were given to us by God, and none of these gifts are “better” than others. If you think you’re giving of your time to clean

The Greatest of These . . .

886) In my language arts classroom, every Monday we study the lyrics of four songs as we listen to parts of each one. We look at figures of speech that may be present; we discuss the author’s purpose, as we see it, and just plain appreciate the beauty that words and music can form together.

Spitting Image

885) There is a conversation that takes place in Mark 12:13-17 that caught my eye. Here we read that the “religious” leaders in Jesus’ day were trying to trap Him, so they ask Him a question that either way would make Jesus look guilty. They ask Him if they should pay taxes to Rome. If

Alone

Page 195 – The Bottle House “When a person has been badly hurt, one of the scariest things of all can happen, and that is feeling all alone. It doesn’t matter if you’ve caused the pain or if someone else has, feeling isolated is terrible.” Stefan’s throat tightened. He pictured the evenings he and his

Prayer Considered

884) I must confess that I have hesitated in writing about the topic of praying for specific things. I think it’s because sometimes I ask God for something and He grants it and there are other times (and it seems like many to me) when I ask God, and He answers no or, “worse yet,”

The Gift of Love

883) As a teacher of many years, it’s hard to hold back my reaction to some of my students’ boastful statements. I know they’re young so I expect this but I have found I’ve needed to be careful in my reaction to them. In Mark 10:17-31, an “educated” man, who was very wealthy, came to

Salt or Vinegar

882) There is a trend of selling snacks with limited salt. This is because we know that too much of it is not good for your body. Thinking about this, I started “tasting” in my mind my favorite snack, popcorn, without salt. Yuck! To think of eating popcorn without it takes away most of the

Is God Good?

Page 187 – The Bottle House Stefan cleared his throat which was tightening from the tension and anger building in his body. “I knew he could have healed my Sophie, but he didn’t.” The severity of the accusation surprised Stefan, yet Chaplain Miller nodded his head in understanding. “What you’ve just said ultimately leads to
