Husbands, beware!

Last week I wrote a post entitled, Wives, beware! In that post I was confessing the danger I pose to my husband and family when I do not handle the power my husband grants me with great care. My scriptural support was based on Genesis 3 and supplemented by research in Interpersonal Communication. I hope […]

Wives, beware!

This week I present part one of a two part series: Beware! This week: Wives, beware! Next week: Husbands, beware! My inspiration for such a series comes from two sources. First, I have been pondering a certain passage of Scripture that has huge implications for me as a wife. Second, I have been pondering how […]

Easter Sunday

  He is risen! Today Jesus proved once and for all that He really did have power over death like He said He did. We really can believe in life after death. We really can believe heaven is real. After the sadness of Friday and the sad suspension of silent Saturday, today we have the […]

Silent Saturday

This is part two of my three part thinking this Easter. Good Friday is now over. Easter is tomorrow. What about today? Today is silent as we wait in suspension. God seems to be nowhere today while we are waiting in-between. Have you ever had a season like that? I am in one right now. […]

Good Friday

This Easter, I am sending out a short thought about each day of this holy weekend: Good Friday, Silent Saturday, Easter Sunday. I have asked God to make this weekend meaningful for me spiritually and hope to lend some assistance in making your Easter weekend spiritually meaningful as well. As our country prepares to select […]

This week my pondering is about what love is…and isn’t.  I was doing homework in Walking as Jesus Walked when I read some of the most well-known passages in what is […]

Jesus had no voice

For I have not spoken on my own authority, but the Father who sent me has himself given me a commandment–what to say and what to speak. (John 12:49) I have had two devotional times lately that have set me on a journey of thought. One of them included this verse. It got me thinking. […]

Your struggles could end today.

I read a thought-provoking account of Jesus walking on the water last week and I can’t get it out of my mind (John 6:16-21). When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea, got into a boat, and started across the sea to Capernaum. It was now dark, and Jesus had not yet come […]

Simple anchors for my soul in a nation of eating issues.

I have have been observing food issues for quite some time now as a person living in America. I can’t present an exhaustive discussion of food issues in a single blog post, but I want to start putting order to some of my scattered thoughts as I live in a culture bound and determined to […]

If God can use a 16-year-old…
