A Fight to Eternity

1526) There have been a few times in my life when I experienced the warmth and gratitude of someone sticking up for me. You see, I find sticking up for myself difficult for multiple reasons, but when someone else does, the relief, gratitude and joy is palpable. These thoughts lead me to my wedding vows,

Conscience Curiosity

1525) I find the “study” of what a conscience is fascinating. It’s interesting to observe (or read about) someone when they are confronted with a moral choice in life and what urges them (or doesn’t) to make the right choice. I see this too in my classroom. Although I’m not an expert, I’ve always been

We Can’t See Everything

1524) I am so grateful I was raised going to church and learning from God’s word. One of the Bible verses I can remember from my childhood is the last part of Deuteronomy 31:6. It says, “(I) will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.” Good words to

Judgment Time

1523) I am the most judgmental person I know. Does that surprise you? It doesn’t me. When it comes to pointing out failures, unthoughtful words and actions and lifestyle choices that are missing the mark, I am the first to call it out. Another detail that’s important to this confession is that all these things

What is Wrong with Them?

1522) As a teacher, there are often funny things that happen in the classroom and laughter can echo throughout the room. One time, and I don’t know how it came up, I said I dislike the insides of Oreos. One girl looked straight at me and said, “What’s wrong with you?” There was a second

Tolerance is Misunderstood

1521) We are living in a time when the word tolerance has changed its meaning. When many use the word now, it often means acceptance of whatever behavior is in the forefront. This sort of tolerance is not what the Bible admonishes. In Ephesians 4:2, Paul tells us to be humble and gentle with others;

When Everything is Ready

1520) As the holiday season approaches, there is the anticipation of “doing things differently” for a few days out of the year. You do not go through your daily routines. Instead, you may get your house ready for company, get food bought and cooked and more. The bottom line is, if you’re hosting family gatherings,

How God Feels about Rejection

1519) In Genesis 1:26, we find God made us in his image. I understand this to mean that we have several characteristics (though flawed now) that are like him. These include the ability to make choices, the ability to love, and the ability to feel many emotions. God has these characteristics and sometimes we forget

Tears Examined

1518) Have you ever given thought to something that comes naturally to our bodies: tears? Why do our bodies react to extreme emotion, either positive or negative? I picture a pressure cooker letting off steam. Our tears are the body’s way of letting off the pressure of an emotional swing. This is a good thing.

What are Your Gifts?

1517) We all have been given gifts and abilities. If you’re older, as I am, you should be very aware of what these are, but if you aren’t, Paul tells us in 1 Timothy 4:14, that we should know what they are and be using them. In this verse, Paul is writing to Timothy, and
