I typed “disappointed” into my phone. At least, I thought I did. When I looked back over it, “disappointed” was now “discovered”. That is more positive! But not quite the same. But I liked it and decided to leave both words. I left both words because it made me think of the Olympics. Those athletesContinue reading “DISCOVERED. DISAPPOINTED… Tuesday with Ryan! … 8/3/2021”

What do you think your potential is? Do you think it matches what your Creator sees as your potential?

IS THIS IMPORTANT?….7/22/2021…Thursday Thought
Sometimes I can get caught up in things that feel important, upset me, drive me nuts, etc. Then I catch a glimpse of what is truly important. That happened this morning. I wasted over an hour with the phone company. Then, I realized I was way behind schedule and opened my planner and up popped,Continue reading “IS THIS IMPORTANT?….7/22/2021…Thursday Thought”

….YOU ARE SOMEBODY….….. Sunday, 7/18/2021…. … Home Communion …
Barriers between people. Divisiveness, violence, emotional upheaval, fear. This is not who we were created to be! We were made for so much more.

The celebration of Christ’s TableContinue reading “….YOU ARE SOMEBODY….….. Sunday, 7/18/2021…. … Home Communion …”

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”
