I had a friend send me a video to watch and listen and then relate my thoughts and feelings about it. I started on a blank page to compose my reply… The page remains blank to this day. It’s not that I had no thoughts or nothing to say (believe me, I always have thoughts … Continue reading Just Listen

Zoom…Out
We like to see growth. We see it in nature as the trees get taller each year. Our crops grow before our eyes. As do our children. In business, we see expansions and financial growth. Our coworkers move up the ladder or on to bigger and better things. We move up, too. Or we change … Continue reading Zoom…Out

Serving
Funny thing happened the other day… I was cooking a meal for I don’t know probably 50-60 people. I got up early that morning, got everything going. I cooked the entire meal. No problem. It wasn’t until I went to serve that I realized I had no spoons. It’s funny to me how much we … Continue reading Serving
Who Am I…
Point of Grace asks “LORD, Who am I that YOU would speak to me so softly…?” How can I even think to be worthy of any conversation with GOD much less be found worthy of a drop of grace? I was thinking of the woman with the issue of blood…and wondering if I would be … Continue reading Who Am I…
Dead in CHRIST
I’ve thought this before but never in these words. The flesh is the grave…we are all dust, clay, made from the earth. And we are all dying, naturally. But today, as I was reading, it hit me that we are in fact dead…the flesh is dead; it is rotten and rotting with every passing moment. … Continue reading Dead in CHRIST
Inhale ~ Exhale
Prayer. In John, it’s recorded that JESUS told HIS disciples that they no longer needed HIM to pray for them, but they could pray in HIS name. Anything asked through HIS name, the FATHER would hear. How amazing is that?!! We don’t have to go through anyone other than JESUS to get to the FATHER. … Continue reading Inhale ~ Exhale
Thoughts on Irony
A coworker of mine recently made a comment about the irony of life…and it made me think of an email I never sent. I had a friend accuse me of having so many contradictions. In the unsent message, I explained how I do not contradict myself though it seems I do. Even as Yoda says … Continue reading Thoughts on Irony
Close, and Closer…
I’ve always wondered about keeping your friends close and your enemies closer. I mean I’ve always found it to be true…that those closest to me are the ones who hurt me the most. It’s in Micah. (7:6) I’m going to put the next verse in my words…he says let me alone in my darkness, GOD … Continue reading Close, and Closer…
Symphony
Every life has a song…a melody that ebbs and flows as it continues. Many songs start slowly, peacefully finding a soothing lullaby. The tempo races and rests from time to time. Some songs speed along, the notes flying off the page, racing, rising, falling octaves within moments at breathtaking speeds right from the start. There … Continue reading Symphony
