Turn
Read more: TurnRecently, my daughter and I watched a 1D concert on YouTube, a perfect environment for me to observe. I’ve seen videos of fans of the Beatles, Monkeys and Elvis and quite honestly, the crying, screaming and fainting hasn’t changed much.

Tychicus
Read more: TychicusIn all honesty, a deer walking requires your patience and imagination to find the bridge to Tychicus, but bear with me.

Shelter
Read more: Shelterlet’s review. All who dwell in the shelter. Make sure you have made the Lord your shelter. Make sure you have not put your trust in any man made item. You may say I haven’t. Where do you first go when the storms hit? Run to him first. He is your first comfort. He is…

Do not…
Read more: Do not…I opened my journal today and it flopped to a previous page and I knew what I was writing about today. Birds and lilies. I know I have before. I think Jesus was pretty brilliant when he did this. He gave us pictures to remind us. I’m getting ahead of myself. I’m referring to Matthew…

Dwell
Read more: DwellI’m staring at my puppy today, who is trying to find a comfortable position on my couch. It’s a difficult job, but she’s up to the challenge today, we hope.
