Nothing is ‘by chance’. I think of my own life and how every person is carefully placed. Timing and circumstances align just so to orchestrate what seems like random events. That’s the thing… Our plans and everything we do to try to get ahead or get away are part of a larger plan. Look at … Continue reading Lost

All Things
I’ve always been drawn to Philippians 4:13, but lately it’s taken on a whole new meaning. I don’t think the intention is that I can do anything, but rather the Lord can do the unimaginable in me. Paul says he is full yet hungry at the same time. He has famine and plenty… How can … Continue reading All Things
Laziness
I love Proverbs, the Book in the Bible. There is a verse that speaks of the sluggard not plowing because of the cold and when it is time for harvest, he won’t have anything. If you don’t plant, you don’t have anything to grow… I’m not really into plants. Yes, we have a garden, and … Continue reading Laziness
As a Last Resort
“Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up thine hand: Forget not the humble.” Psalm 10:12 KJV You know, we often think of prayer as a last resort. “Has it come to that” [where prayer is the only thing left to do.] But why do we wait to pray? When prayer is the answer? What more … Continue reading As a Last Resort
New Wine
New wine…we ask God to make us new wine; a new life with new meaning, part of His vine, a branch to bring forth new fruit. Oh, but at the pain we face when being made into new wine. We must be crushed in the press. Left to ferment, uncared for by natural eyes. We … Continue reading New Wine

A Thought About Comfort Zones
I was just thinking about comfort zones…you know how we really don’t like leaving our space or going outside of our level of expertise. We usually find a groove and just kind of stay there until we are forced to move. The Lord says He never sends us anywhere He would not go; furthermore He … Continue reading A Thought About Comfort Zones
Silences
One of the most wonderful feelings is the ability to sit with someone and not feel the need to talk, to fill the space with sound. What a blessing it is to share the time in peace without being judged. Sometimes we need those comfortable silences for reflection. Or for the sake of silence. Not … Continue reading Silences
Apples and Doors
“Eat the damn apple” Technically, it wasn’t said exactly that way, but the tone…wow! I heard words that weren’t intended…or said. But it got my attention… Isn’t that what we all need sometimes? We need someone to smack us upside the head and help us regain our focus. Not literally, of course, just in a … Continue reading Apples and Doors
