A Poison Among Us

1102) When I was in the 6th grade, I got into a patch of poison ivy. Because I have very sensitive skin, the rash spread quickly and covered much of my body. I remember my mother taking me to the doctor and in the waiting room there was a parent who moved their child away

The Debate of Self-love

1101) Talk of self-love is prevalent these days. You hear of “me days” and looking out for yourself first. I have read in Christian books that you need to love, rather than loath yourself in order to be a whole person. Some of these thoughts need to be considered when setting healthy boundaries for yourself.

Act not React

1100) As is true with all people, I have a weakness that rarely stands me well. I am a “reactor” more than I am an “actor”. It’s almost as if my reactions don’t even clear my brain (though science shows they do). Something happens and, boom! I react. As is true for most things, there

How Loving Benefits You – Part 6

1099) My students love fruit. Whenever there are baggies of fruit that the lunch room occasionally brings by for snack time, they dig right in. Why? Perhaps it’s because fruit is so flavorful and it looks and smells so good. Perhaps because when it’s eaten, their bodies benefit from it; it doesn’t give them a

How Loving Benefits You – Part 4

1097) Many years ago, in my high school classroom, I told my students to be quiet (one of many thousands of times I have done this), but then I went over to someone and made a comment that had nothing to do with the assignment. Another student looked over my way and said, without being

How Loving Benefits You – Part 3

1097) Over the years, I have had individuals say they will do something and then, when it’s time, they do not follow through and do what they committed to. Not only is this behavior poor, it is not a demonstration of love. (This type of  love in Philippians 1:9 is agapē, which is the selfless,

How Loving Benefits You – Part 2

1096) Lately, I have not had enough time (or made enough time?) to read but as I think about books which have resonated with me, The Noticer by Andy Andrews is one of them. In this story (fiction based on true events), there is an old man simply named Jones who arrives in a town

How Loving Benefits You – Part 1

1095) I have a former student whose social media posts include several pictures of her with her son. This student has beautiful red hair and her son’s hair matches hers. This son is definitely the image of his mother. Genesis 1:27 tells us God created us in his image. This image is not physical, but

Sword Fight

1094) Weapons and U.S. citizens’ rights are in the news frequently. The debate is often more about whether weapons make volatile situations better or worse than working on the problem of crime itself. When the dust of this controversy settles, when weapons are needed, if you don’t know how to use them, they can be

Helmets are Important

1093) I did so many stupid things when I was a kid. One of them involved taking my bicycle and jumping ramps that were made of flimsy pieces of plywood propped up on a couple of bricks. What could go wrong? On top of that, I never wore a helmet as many kids do today.
