•••this post is Romans 9:1-5, separated by concordance searches I did. You are most welcome to read on, but I’m posting this after Monday night so the woman can look for themselves at all the verses available. And I actually deleted some. This is the delight of studying Scripture using concordances. I highly recommend adding…

So, Joshua and I have been watching Survivor together. I haven’t watched this show since the first season and I have regrets now. Ha. I’m sure someone has done case studies, and studied the psychology. It is a fascinating study of human nature and the flesh, as Paul describes in Romans 8. I read somewhere…

Our little dog, Luna, has begun to cry whenever the circumstances of her life are not up to her opinion. She obviously knows what she wants and seeing as words are a bit challenging, she does the next best thing. Here’s what she has done. She has trained all of us to come whenever she…

Over night, I was woken by little dog whining which led me to be awake for a time. And I began to think about upcoming bills, things we need to cover financially and what if Joshua doesn’t find a job. What if. What if. Even if. Change the tapes. I have been working on Matthew…

Matthew 6 is part of Jesus’ longest sermon that it is believed, he spoke many times. He outlines three “when you’s” not really up for negotiation. When you give to the poor, when you pray and when you fast. Each of these are between you and the Lord. We are warned to not be like…

Guys, last night this…

When we brought Luna home, we were not prepared for a puppy. I mean, we had the toys, the leash, etc., but we were not prepared for the energy and craziness. As she began to realize that there were things she could do, she also realized she had boundaries as well. We taught them. Starburst…

My Ella told me a story about a big, old horse at the barn. His name is Ivan and Ivan is large. So when you have teens guiding him to where they want him to go, and HE decides he has other plans…guess who wins? It made me laugh, but honestly it’s a bit dangerous,…

I’ve decided that I wanted to start teaching our little Luna some tricks. My first thought was to go to instagram for advice. 10 tricks you can teach your dog in 10 minutes. Or 5 tricks to impress your friends. Well, I watched the former and had to laugh. First, she is “training” one of…

One of the stories about Jesus that challenges me would have to be Judas. Jesus picked him to be one of the twelve, knowing. It’s quite obvious that none of the other twelve had any indication. In fact, many of the mentions in the Gospel include the phrase, the one who would betray. Remember they…
