FOLLOW THE LEADER – 5/12/2021

You are the Leader. It is not as obvious as the actual game, but there are those who follow you for guidance on how to handle their own surprises, problems, opportunities. We are not responsible for the choices others make. We can not make anyone follow us or listen to us. We are responsible forContinue reading “FOLLOW THE LEADER – 5/12/2021”

UNFAILING LOVE.5/10/2021.Monday

Monday crazies! In the midst of this morning’s Monday Crazies, I read in Jeremiah 31: I have loved you with a love that lasts forever. And so with unfailing love, I have drawn you to myself.

LETTING GO OF THE PERFECT MYTH.HOME COMMUNION .MOTHER’S DAY . 5/9/2021

Mother’s Day was set aside to honor the peace efforts made by women in this country.

Touching Lepers05.03.2021Monday

I titled this “Touching Lepers” and I don’t think I even mentioned the scripture in Matthew where Jesus comes down after the Sermon on the Mount and a man with leprosy asks Jesus to heal him. Jesus does the unthinkable: he reaches out and touches him. Jesus saw beyond the disease to the person underneath.Continue reading “Touching Lepers05.03.2021Monday”

WELCOMED, ACCEPTED, LOVED5.2.2021 SundayHome Communion

Have you ever felt rejected? Memories of the dreaded Red Rover games loom in my head. I was a scrawny weakling that everyone knew couldn’t hold hold tight enough. Even worse are the job rejections. Maybe love rejections are worst of all. There is one place where we are not only not rejected, but weContinue reading “WELCOMED, ACCEPTED, LOVED5.2.2021 SundayHome Communion”
