Seeing God

Do you see God throughout your day? Do you ever really look for Him? I try to always look for Him in the things or people I see. I want to see the reminders that He is there and in control. That He is always with me. I once read a story about a person… Continue reading Seeing God

The Banquet

How many banquets have you attended in your lifetime? I’ve been to a few. As an athlete, we would have banquets at the end of each sport season. As a student at a Christian school, we had Junior/Senior banquet in place of prom. I’m sure there are many other examples of banquets. At these banquets,… Continue reading The Banquet

Priceless

What do you have that is priceless? Family, friends, a treasured thing? We can probably think of a lot of things that we would consider priceless. But, did you know that you are priceless? There are times that we feel worthless, ignored, and downright lonely. But if we are a baptized Christ-follower, God sees us… Continue reading Priceless

Blessings

When I was growing up I used to love (and still do) to sing “Count Your Blessings.” I don’t think we count our blessings enough. I know I don’t. The song says to count them one by one. Recently, my husband and I sat down and typed up every blessing we could think of. It… Continue reading Blessings

In the Moment

Jesus lived in the moment. His ministry was only 3 years long, but during those short years, He accomplished more than any of us ever will or can in our lives. In one of my past blogs I talked about time and how it passes so quickly. In the book of Ecclesiastes, Solomon says everything… Continue reading In the Moment

I know people who never allow themselves to self-evaluate. They never really look at themselves, I mean really look, to… Continue reading OK?

Spirits

I recently took a CPR/First Aid certification class. During those 2 1/2 hours, our instructor kept saying the victim is dead, so you need to… This got me thinking. If we are dead when our heart stops, when does our spirit leave our body after death? I know if I keep trying to work on… Continue reading Spirits

Wait

As I write this blog today, I am in the hospital waiting area waiting for my brother to have his knee replacement surgery. Waiting is so hard. We spend so much of our time waiting in this life. We are waiting for surgeries to be over; waiting for time to change; waiting for things to… Continue reading Wait

Time

Last night Chris and I were watching a documentary on Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood. I grew up watching him. I remembered most of the clips they showed, and it brought back so many memories. It also made me kind of sad. I was brought to tears at a lot of the clips, and it got me… Continue reading Time

Thanks

When I first started this blog, I will admit that it was for myself. I was going through some personal issues at the time and just needed a place to voice thoughts and get some new thoughts! I want to take the time in a post to thank those of you who comment either on… Continue reading Thanks
