So much of our time is spent striving, working, trying to make a place within our control. It is not a pointless struggle; we can bring hope and encouragement by what we do and say. (Although my attempts at brushing my hair before I started this morning appear to have been quite useless, and thatContinue reading “I’VE GOT THE POWER!…. 9/26/2021 …. Sunday …… Home Communion …”

I STILL FEEL THE WORDS… 9/23/2021 …. Thursday
What words still resonate in your body? Were you told you were precious, precocious, picky, or a pest? Were you told you were a beauty or a brat? So smart or so stupid? Growing and learning or incapable and doomed to be a failure? Those words have power. What words do you find yourself using?Continue reading “I STILL FEEL THE WORDS… 9/23/2021 …. Thursday”
WHERE IS YOUR POWER?… 9/20/2021 … Monday …
I like to post right after I pray so it is fresh on my mind. Lately, I haven’t been able to get it all in. This week the scripture has a theme of power, not power over, but power with. Power with love, with listening, with caring, with the Divinity. Have you ever thought howContinue reading “WHERE IS YOUR POWER?… 9/20/2021 … Monday …”

How is Wisdom calling out to you? Is it time to change directions or maybe to lighten up some? To worry less and reach out more? Today I pray to answer the call of Wisdom:
BITTERSWEET LOVE…. 8/6/2021 ….
Love is vulnerable. The blessings, the joys, the growth can all be beyond words. Yet, love unlocks the metal doors encasing our hearts, allowing heartbreak to saunter on in. Love gives us a choice. We can celebrate and rejoice in the amazing goodness of love and be grateful or we can take that part forContinue reading “BITTERSWEET LOVE…. 8/6/2021 ….”
WHAT DOES IT TAKE?!… 7/28/2021 … Wednesday ..
What do you think your potential is? Do you think it matches what your Creator sees as your potential? One of the reasons that I love the Olympics is seeing people realize they have greater potential than they thought. One of the issues I have with the Olympics is the stress it can put onContinue reading “WHAT DOES IT TAKE?!… 7/28/2021 … Wednesday ..”
TREMBLING BONES… 7/23/2021
How do you handle those little, under-the-surface fears? The ones about your health, your abilities, your future, your family, your finances, your broken down car, etc.?

STEPPING OUT .. 7/15/2021 …Thriving on Thursday
I have a tendency to pull away into my own world, especially if there is conflict. I have discovered that no matter what our personalities or coping traits are, we can step out in faith. And, in stepping out, it is okay if we don’t get it all right, as long as we are livingContinue reading “STEPPING OUT .. 7/15/2021 …Thriving on Thursday”
Popeye, the Sailor Man, with Spinach……… July 2, 2021 … Friday
Do you remember Popeye? When he needed strength, he popped open a can of spinach and poured it in. Paul makes a similar statement that he is fine when people call him weak because that lets the power of Christ show through him. For the celebrations of Independence Day in America, I am grateful andContinue reading “Popeye, the Sailor Man, with Spinach……… July 2, 2021 … Friday”
