Girl Power!
I have been a terrible flirt throughout most of my life. I didn’t see any harm in it, and couldn’t really understand why other girls/women would give me the evil eye. “No harm in a little fun”, said the voice in my head, “I am not doing anything really serious and would never follow through…!”…

The Golden Pot
A picture came to mind during today’s church service. So many of us sitting in the pews are cracked and broken vessels. Over the years there have been pieces broken off, and splinters that penetrated the porcelain surface. There are cracks and embedded dirt. Most of the pots have temporary glue holding them together, and…

What’s Your Story?
There is nothing like sitting at an airport. People are rushing, sauntering, sitting, sleeping, and arriving or going somewhere on this big planet of ours. I can sit for hours, and often have to, and just watch people. Every color, age, and class seems to be represented. Each one has a story. Each one has…

Falling in Love…
I have been a christian for over 40 years. In that time I have had the opportunity to serve in ministry, be it as an MK (missionary kid), elders wife, counseling teacher, cook at the church camp or even being a missionary. But it’s only in the last 6 months that I have fallen in…

Visions of JOY!!!
“Now close your eyes, picture yourself walking along the shores of Lake Galilee. Imagine Jesus walking beside you, see the lake, hear the waves wash along the shore, and ask Jesus that question you want the answer to.” (this is all a bit paraphrased, as I don’t remember the exact wording…but I think you can…
