Treasures

1197) I have read of people scuba diving where old ships are resting on the ocean floor. I’m assuming there is a lot that is interesting to discover. I also know there are laws governing certain areas of the ocean, prohibiting people from removing anything they find in specific ships. This law may be hard

Now vs Later

1196) I read about a study once that was conducted on young children. They were seated at a table and given a marshmallow. They were told that the adult needed to leave the room for a bit and if the child did not eat the marshmallow while the adult was gone, they would get another

Role Models

1195)  At the school I teach, we have a role model award at the end of each year for the students who stand out positively for what they say and do. I remember one year; I was sitting by a student whose behavior was over-the-top difficult to deal with. He leaned over to me and

Murderer

I love to read the local newspapers; I have for years. I like to know what’s going on in the area in which I live and be up-to-date on what our local officials are doing. However, the reading of my newspapers (and even my newsfeeds online) can be disheartening. It seems there are so many

Lost Appetites

1193) Once upon a time, I got food poisoning and had to go to the hospital for it. I believe it came from some chicken I had eaten. By the time I arrived at the emergency room, I had lost a lot of fluids. I stayed there for many hours and from that point on;

I’ve Got a Secret

1192)  I’m not fond of secrets. I think it’s because many of them are a foundation of distrust, deceit, vanity, and shame. Anytime I have discovered this type of secret, it has taken a piece of my heart and shattered it. Most families have skeletons in their closets. Jesus’ earthy family did, too. They included

No Experience & Training Necessary

1191)  You must run 10 miles today without stopping. You must speak Italian fluently by the end of the day. You must organize a national event with a limited budget. You must make 1,000 yeast donuts before suppertime. If you were asked to do any of the assignments above and you had no experience doing

Our Warrior

1190) My brothers and I used to watch wrestling growing up. I assure you this was not the serious competitions that are hosted by high schools or the Olympics. We’d watch what they would do and try it on each other. These wrestlers were strong (and loud) warriors we would probably stay away from. It’s

The Wounds of Life

1189) Working with kids for so many years, I’ve seen my share of cuts, scrapes and blood. Many times, when I’ve seen the most blood, it was on a child’s face. As most of us know, face wounds often look worse than they really are. Once we get the child cleaned up, it’s usually taken

A Reputation

1188) There is something I’m proud of that is true of both my husband and I; we are both dependable. If either of us says we will do something, you don’t have to keep checking behind us to make sure it’s done. Our reputation testifies to this. Faith is similar. Because the history of what
