Want Peace?

1893) I recently was doing a poetry writing project with some of my young scholars. I had them write Circle Poems, where you start out with a subject and then let your mind take you to one subject after another, eventually circling back to what you started with. (For example: Trees, wood, cold, winter, snow,

Anxiety Isn’t New

1892) There are many mental, emotional, and even physical ailments that are no longer hidden in shame. These things can be anxiety,  \the inability to pay attention, and the more-than-average swings in emotions.   As one who has to deal continually with anxiety, I find myself ashamed of it from time to time. These are

Steady Growth

1891) Through the years, I have come to realize most things that come quickly, or with little ease, aren’t worth much. This can be true with relationships, situations related to your work, or wisdom. Most things worth having take time. When it comes to our spiritual lives, 2 Corinthians 5:17 weighs in. Paul tells us we

Hostages

1890) As I read newsfeeds, I find there are still people in our world who are snatched and held hostage. There are many reasons and motivations for this, and unfortunately, it still happens. There are those who have been abused by the church and God’s children who see God as a hostage taker. They may feel

Prayer with Legs

1889) When the weather is suitable, I enjoy a walk. Most of the time, I take my little dachshund, Cayce, and sometimes a friend will walk with me. Imagine going on a walk with a friend and neither of you say a word the whole way. Is this natural? Is there as much enjoyment in being

Personal Problems

1888) I am someone who will do just about anything to avoid confrontation. I know the reasons why so, in a sense, I use them to justify not confronting others when necessary. Yet, Jesus commands we do this, and he’s very specific about how it is to be carried out.   Matthew 18:15-20 tells us

Wait

1887) Waiting is a difficult thing for many these days. Why? Because we are used to getting immediate results. The text, the online shopping, instant customer service, 24/7. When someone doesn’t answer immediately, we can get irritated.   There are just some things, however, that cannot be hurried. One is found in Habakkuk 2:3. Here

Listen for the Stories

1886) One thing I’ve learned in the last couple of years is it’s important to listen to others’ stories. What does this mean? When others tell me of what’s going on in their lives, I need to listen, which involves more than just my ears. I need to take in what’s being said and connect

Am I a Failure?

1885) When I’m sitting at this computer, contemplating what God will have me write for another “minute,” it causes mixed feelings. Why? Because whatever topic God leads me to write about, it’s something I must incorporate into my life as well. I don’t sit and write thinking; I’ve got this thing together, but my readers

Seeking Approval

1884) We all want approval from others. Some of us are more focused on it, but this desire is universal. For children, they want the approval of the adults in their world. A parent, grandparent or teacher. For teens, they also want the approval of some specific peer group. For adults, we may long for the
