    We have a very cute puppy who got out the front door yesterday. When she is inside our cozy, little home, she listens beautifully. She dashed out while we were letting the cat in. For the next (felt like a hour) five minutes she ran and ran. We called and called. She finally decided she…

    Our teacher yesterday in church told the story of Abraham. It begins with Abraham believing God and God crediting it to him as righteousness. Then we went into some of the mistakes, failures, etc that are also a part of the story. Yet, we find in Galatians 3:6-9, and Romans 4:1-22, Abraham is still credited…

    I love to dive deep in the word of God. I love to do word searches, concordance dives, you name it. I love to dig in God’s word. However, where I have been convicted this last year, I need to apply the truths to my life today. This came into focus as I spent the…

    As I begin reading through the Bible again, I am using the Bible Project’s classroom. I’m not in a formal Bible study this fall, but I want to learn. I am a part of a discussion/Bible study on Monday nights and while, there is no homework, I am finding community. I do better with more…

    As I continue in Philippians 4:8, as you see by the title, the word is lovely. We have many ideas of lovely. We admire beauty in people, places, things. Temporal. This picture above in four months will be slushie ice, mud and bare trees. Yet, we can find lovely here as well. Short side note,…

    This word has been messing with me. I’ve done the concordance search. I’ve defined the word. And yet I’ve been sitting and staring at this word for a bit. And this occurs to me: “One thing I have asked from the Lord, that I shall seek: That I may dwell in the house of the…
