The Power of Light in Scripture
Read more: The Power of Light in ScriptureI’ve been thinking about light these last few days. When our kids were little, we went to the Brookfield zoo almost weekly, walking in and out of exhibits, the kids running and pointing and getting some of the energy out. There is a room at the Wolf habitat where you can go in, no lights…

This is our God
Read more: This is our GodYou know what it is like to not be heard. Body position, eye movement away from you, looking at a watch or cellphone. It is a crummy feeling. My last primary visit, the doctor spent more time typing than looking at me. It’s a wild feeling, right? Look at me. Listen to me. So, I’m…

If and you
Read more: If and youThis past week I spent time reading the word out loud with friends, we read large chunks of Scripture, and before I forget, I want to remember a few things. First, I highly recommend the practice of reading the word in community. Not sure if I’ll say this well, but, there is something here in…

Wait
Read more: Wait**Over Easter week, my church asked me to write the story of Holy Week from a first person narrative. I enjoyed this so much, I decided to continue this narrative into Acts.

We are grateful for weather people forecasting, right? We love to watch the time lapse and see where the snow/rain/sleet will go. A theme of our life is planning ahead, seeing…

Change
Read more: ChangeI’m noticing something this year at Christmas as I drive down the long street in my neighborhood before turning onto my little street. Light. Maybe one third of the houses are decorating with light. It’s dark as I drive down this street. Now, when you turn onto my street, there is light. Only one house…

Reverence
Read more: ReverenceMilo was in a fight the other day with something outside Noah’s window. We were able to chase whatever it was away and brought the little guy in from the chaos. He was bleeding and Ella cared for his wounds. We took him to the vet the next day and he got some antibiotics. We…

Rain
Read more: RainWe have had a bunch of rain (that’s a technical term, FYI) and the skies have been gray and gloomy. If you have been reading these little posts for awhile then you know I feed the little birds around here. I began to notice that the birds would come around, sit on the feeders, but…

Fixed
Read more: FixedSo, in stretching and strengthening, I was watching a recent video and she made this comment: when standing on one leg, fix your gaze on an object in the room that is not moving. Keep it there until you come out of the pose. Now, this can be difficult with 2 cats and a dog…
