Stretched

1765) When I was a kid, my brothers had a toy called Stretch Armstrong. It was a type of action figure you were supposed to be able to pull on the arms and they would stretch significantly. Unfortunately, they decided to each take an arm and pull in opposite directions and, of course, they stretched

Two Gardens

1764) Once upon a time, there were two gardens. The first one had luscious fruits, beautiful trees and colorful flowers. The inhabitants of this garden were complete. They had everything they needed, and yet, in a form of ingratitude, these people disobeyed the one rule they had. This was the beginning of a separation between

The Poverty of Comparison

1763) A few years ago, my husband and I visited the Dominican Republic. It was a beautiful place with turquoise water, plentiful fruit and amazing beaches. As we have done on other trips, we took opportunities to leave the comfortable resort to go and really see the country and its people. On these trips, we

The Power Behind Two Words

1762) I have not written many of these minute devotions using a verse from the book of Song of Solomon, but I will today because there is one that speaks of two powerful words. Song of Solomon 8:6 tells us love is as strong as death and jealousy is fierce as the grave. Let’s think

Beauty Pageant

1761) Our society, and I suppose many in history, has an obsession with looking good. This may include things that make your body look good and it also can include the things you have. A lot of time, attention and money is fed into this bottomless pit. 1 Peter 3:3-4 says we need to make

An Expensive Gift

1759) I knew someone once who experienced a life-altering trauma. I remember watching her and seeing others take a wide berth around her. The interesting thing was, I don’t think people did this because they disliked this person; I think it’s because the pain radiated from her so strongly, others couldn’t bear to connect with

Despair

1758) For some of us, when we read the word, despair, something in our gut drops. We only have to read the word and our bodies immediately tighten and something in our spirit cries. When you’re in despair, you feel completely out of control and that, at any moment, you might lose it, physically, mentally,

Just As Important

1757) How do you feel about yourself? When the lights are off and you’re lying in bed thinking before you drift off to sleep, how do you see yourself? For me, I usually only see the things and hear the words I have done or said wrong on most days. If my thoughts take me

Words

1756) For as long as I can remember, I have always been sensitive to words. I am drawn to things people say and wonder what they mean. I’ve sat in hundreds of church services and found it intriguing when the minister referred to a word in the Bible and its original language. As a Bible

How Can It Be?

1755) I love to read and if I can fit in the time, I’m perfectly content, sitting on the desk and reading. I love to read fiction, but stories of ordinary people who act in extraordinary ways draw my attention. One person I would place in this category is Job. A wealthy man with many
