Safety and Graciousness

753) In recent years, I have struggled with not feeling safe. There are many reasons for this but regardless of the source, there are many, many times that I find myself having difficulty breathing, tears close to falling and feeling these things because my faith isn’t strong enough. I often feel God must be so

The Foundation of Faith

752) Those who are mature know that love is not solely a feeling. Yes, in the beginning, our senses overflow with euphoria but when it comes down to it, love is anything but. It is acceptance, hard work, giving, forgiving, being patient, kind and more. Faith is similar because it is not built on a

A Beautiful Field

750) What do you see or focus on? It’s so easy to get lost in the forests of life and not see the beautiful field next to it. Yes, the stand of trees, vines, rocks, thorny bushes, ditches and dimness of light is before you, but do you remember that, according to the map you

How to Help a Struggling Friend

749) There’s nothing worse than seeing a loved one or a friend struggle, especially at the point of despair. Some try to sympathize and say, “I have been through things that are bad too, so I know how you feel.” Do you really? Have you been in that person’s skin, with their history, weaknesses, hurts,

Indirect Blame

748) There are so many ways to deflect blame away from ourselves. We know that life in this world holds many bad things and when these things happen, we can cast blame in many directions. One way is subtle. When something wonderful has happened we might say, “So and so happened. God is good.” But

The Accuser

747) One thing that has always worried me about our judicial system is, what if someone is accused of something he didn’t do? Though I think we who live in the United States are fortunate that we have the judicial system we have, there have been several occasions when this has failed; the judge pronounced,

Life Lessons

746) There are many things about how life works that can surprise a young person who is moving into adulthood. These may include, you don’t get something from nothing or the euphoria of love will not be a constant in the best of marriages. There is a third important lesson that sometimes we adults forget

Give a Man Enough Rope . . .

745) We all have enemies. Some of these are family members, co-workers or even ourselves. Some of our enemies may also be in our churches. The question is, what should we do about them? Setting boundaries with these individuals is a good place to start and there are also times that God would lead us

Beauty is Only Skin-deep?

744) Several weeks ago, I had a conversation with a friend and lamented that when I was in my 20s, I so wished my body was different than it was. (I had a list of things I would change.) I continued my conversation saying, I’d give anything to have the body I had then. My

Who Wants That Job?

743) As a teacher, I can think of one job that I would never want to do, and that is to be a school bus driver. For any of you who have taken on this daunting job, God bless you for it! I tell my students that I wouldn’t care if the job paid a
