Which Part Are You?

1580) One of the things that concerns me about how our country is functioning now (or not functioning) is how divided we are. I see divisions in families, politics, race, workplaces, and religions. This is a burden on my heart because I know that when there is division, the unit is much weaker and vulnerable.

Three Things That Can Change the World

1579) There is a lot of clickbait out there and those who are successful at grabbing your attention, even for a moment, know how to write a headline that intrigues you. I have attempted this with the title of this minute. There are three things that can change the world and, yes, it’s a simple

Give What You Need

1578) The word, giving back, has become somewhat trendy. “So-and-so is actively involved in giving back to the community,” and other similar activities we hear about. I think this is important and a good thing. Paul confirms this in 2 Corinthians 9:7. It tells us God loves a cheerful giver. Have you ever thought, however,

Comparison Shopping

I’m usually candid in my minute devotions I write but not so much in other ways, but today, I need to write of a vulnerability that may resonate with you. The last week has been difficult. First, my husband and I got COVID a second time and in trying to recover from this, I find

Waves

1576) Living on the coast of Maine has caused me to look at waves differently. Before moving here, my idea of waves were things you could ride your boogie-board on and land on the white sugar-sand. Here in Maine, the waves I often see have at least the velocity of those in the South, and

Restraint

1575) If you have never had to restrain a child or a pet when they needed necessary medical care, you don’t know how difficult it is. For me, when I’ve had to take my dogs to get certain medical procedures, I have been asked to help restrain them. My dogs are little guys, dachshunds, but

Foolish and Stupid Arguements

1574) It’s interesting to hear the bickering my students have. What’s even more interesting is what they’re about. It’s usually because someone “stole” something of theirs or someone “said” something about them. We can find almost all of these types of disagreements in these two sources, but I also think it’s interesting that we adults

The Big Three

1573) I love to read quotes by authors and their books. A lot of times, these quotes give me a snapshot of the best from their writings. I have a whole quote book where I have listed important ideas through the years and Romans 12:12 should definitely be added. In this verse, Paul gives us

Anger is like Velcro

1595) Do you know anyone who has a problem with anger? Has it been you, at certain times of your life? Anger isn’t generally considered very “Christian” but, actually, anger in and of itself isn’t the slippery slope to Hades. Instead, it can be the catalyst for standing up for the underdog or spurring you

Peacemakers Not Peace Lovers

1572) Because I have a love for words and what they mean, when I read Matthew 5:9 recently, I got to thinking about the word peacemaker, literally someone who makes peace. My next thought was, this differs from peace lovers. This person will do anything to not rock the boat. These two words and their
