You are Not Alone

942) One of the most difficult times a person can have is when they feel all alone. That’s why in my novel, The Bottle House, I have Chaplain Miller spend so much time on the subject. He tells the group gathered that, “When a person has been badly hurt, one of the scariest things of

Remain in My Love

941) For people of several generations, the church and Christian parents drilled into them that: 1. There are rules. 2. They are to be kept. Certainly not a bad way to live; it would help many avoid trouble in multiple ways. There is one weakness I see in this life-strategy, though. There is little room

Motivated by Love or Fear

940) Relationships are often tricky and if we draw a line connecting any person to anyone they have a relationship with, the lines would often look like a spider’s web. We have a relationship with our spouse, our family, our friends, our bosses, our coworkers, our acquaintances with those through business contacts, with people on

Distractions

923) My middle school classroom is at the back of our school. Looking out of my room’s window, you can see the playground and, depending on what time of day it is, you can watch and hear other classes of kids running around and shouting with joy. My students have a difficult time paying attention

“The” Versus “A”

939) If you ask for directions somewhere, my husband will give one set, and I will give another. Are one of these better than the other? Well, it depends on the person receiving the directions. In my husband’s mind, you travel north down so-and-so road 3 miles and then take a left, going west on

Love is a Verb

938) It’s interesting to teach kids who are in their early teens. The love bug comes into my classroom and I see the kids act in ways that are amusing. I’ll see looks exchanged across the room. I’ll see terrible attempts to pass notes, which, to their horror, I often intercept. I sense a giddiness

Jesus Wept

937) The theme of my novel, The Bottle House, is built around the eleventh chapter of John. When the seeds of this book were planted in the soil of my mind (I believe by God), I was caught up emotionally on several things within this chapter. I could understand Mary and Martha’s urgent message to

Gate are Important

936) When I was small, the house where my family and I lived had a fenced yard. I suppose, as a parent, it was a handy thing when your children are small. The gate protected us from going anywhere outside the fence and getting hurt. This same gate protected us by stopping people or animals

Do You Recognize the Voice?

935) When I was young, my brother got a tape recorder for Christmas. I remember that all of us kids would sit down and record us saying silly things, making noises and such and then we’d play it back and laugh. What I also remember was how strange it seemed to hear my voice on

I Hate Confrontation

934) I hate confrontation. In fact, I will do just about anything to avoid it. I don’t think it’s a bad thing to avoid conflict if you cannot settle things in other ways, but when I choose not to confront, I may add more problems on my shoulders. In John 9, many make the choice
