The $100 Check Fallacy

I should have written this sooner - at least a week ago…but I’ve been a bit busy, so that’s the excuse I’ll stick with this time. ;o)
Anyway, a little over a week ago, I was pretty stressed about money.  I know finances aren’t really one of those things you’re “supposed” to talk about, but I’m [...]

Up In Flames

Life is strange. And, yes, that is how I’m beginning my blog post.

“All within us cries for life and permanence, and everything around us reminds us of mortality and change” A.W. Tozer

Who’s in the Boat?

John 13:1-17, “1 Now before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart out of this [...]

Lessons From Jonah - Part One

 
“Now the word of the Lord came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying, ‘Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and call out against it, for their evil has come up before me.’ But Jonah rose to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the Lord. He went down to Joppa and [...]

Why Do I Cry?

 
I recently started going through the book of Job in my Bible times. Why? Something in it caught my attention while I was looking up verses on contentment. I think that “something” was God’s display of power and knowledge and love laid out [...]

God - You flat-out amaze me!

I found this photo (minus a wee-bit of editing) while scanning through some photos looking for one of ribbon (don’t ask me WHY a dog came up while I was searching for ribbon…). I took one look at it and [...]
