A Gift for God

1796) It amazes me that I will often hear my husband singing a Christmas song softly while he does things, no matter what time of year it is. When I hear this impromptu concert, I sometimes think of a song that meant a lot to me as a child. I can remember being very young

The Power of Peace

1795) I recently had to make some decisions about my writing career. The issues I was debating had consequences that could lead me on a pathway of potential for blessing and ministry to others in what God guides me to write. This decision could also interfere in the momentum in this ministry. I needed God’s

Passive Thinking Makes an Easy Target

1794) Passive thinking is what I use to describe the thoughts that flutter through my mind as I’m trying to go to sleep. It’s interesting to me that as my mind takes me so far, I wonder, How did I think of that? Then I can trace back how one thought led to another and

What Will It Be Like?

1793) The life we have on this earth is full of many things. There is the beauty of nature, and there is the ugliness of pollution. There is the beauty of family and the ugliness and pain of divorce. There is beauty in gifts given and received, and there is the ugliness of robbery and

Less Than

Two Gardens 1790) When I “retired” from teaching Bible, my husband and I moved to Maine. Few schools in Maine allow the teaching of the Bible, so I was reassigned to teach language arts to multiple grades of middle school kids. In order to teach in this new field, I had to take several graduate

In the Beginning

1789) Genesis is one of my favorite books of the Bible. There are so many passages that are fascinating to me and there are lessons to be learned within each chapter. For example, when Cain killed his brother, Abel, I clearly see how people can start with one disobedience and it often snowballs into actions

Always

1788) On this new day, let’s spend a moment thinking about the word always. God doesn’t always heal the sick. He doesn’t always give us what we ask. God doesn’t always change our circumstances. He doesn’t always deliver us from difficulties. God doesn’t always heal our animals. You get the idea. BUT God always gives

A Powerful Gift

1787) When Mother’s Day rolls around, I remind my young scholars. I encourage them to make a card for their mothers, letting the children know that something made from their hearts is a valuable gift. We can also give God a valuable gift. It’s found in John 14:15. Here, John simply says, Do you want
