I haven’t written for awhile because I couldn’t get into my account. Well, it took some finagling and I’m back! We have so many passwords in our life. There is one we don’t need to memorize and that is opening the Bible! Wherever you are, you can pop it open, or continue reading for aContinue reading “Lost Passwords”

Closure Pieces
How many times have you heard “Let go, let God”? I’ve heard it plenty in my life and I may follow through with that sage advice 50% of the time! Letting go is often referred to “closure,” another word which basically means time to heal, move on, let go. Recently I experienced the lifting ofContinue reading “Closure Pieces”
Indigenous Peoples
It’s sometimes surprising what God puts on my heart to write. I know very little about Indigenous People, and if at all, perhaps Aborigines, or Native Americans. And still, it’s limited knowledge. Now comes the tricky part; where does God want to lead in this post? We are all human beings, but many have livedContinue reading “Indigenous Peoples”
Pieces of Chaos
This post is a little like the last one, because a confession I must make is that I often jump the gun ahead of God’s plan for me, which results in chaos and anxiety. Sometimes it’s a control issue. I know, I know, we can’t even control our own lives, how on earth will weContinue reading “Pieces of Chaos”
Disruption Pieces
When chaos or negativity interrupts your life, how do you react? With worry? Try to fix the situation yourself? Gossip? PRAYER, conversation with your Father. Bring it all to Him, and then LEAVE it there. No need to keep hashing it over in your mind, causing undue stress. God whispered to me last night “I’veContinue reading “Disruption Pieces”
Seasons in Our Life
I’m currently in a season of grief. I have been for about two years, but it continues on, as those I love are still dying. It seems endless. I ask God to give me a break, that it would be okay if no one dies for about a year. But I know it won’t lastContinue reading “Seasons in Our Life”
Handbasket
My dad frequently commented that “our world is going to hell in a handbasket.” What is a ‘handbasket’ and why is the world in one. Worse, this was back in the 1970’s, imagine what he would think now. Roe overturned, Ukraine war, starvation in Sudan, the list is endless. Although this is an unfortunate conversationContinue reading “Handbasket”
Wise Counsel
We all need conversation with a friend, pastor or other enlightened person at various times in our life. It’s a hard earned wisdom, developed from a tumultuous journey with a definitive and positive outcome. Maybe we are the voice of reason for another one. Discernment is very necessary on big major decisions. And not justContinue reading “Wise Counsel”
Never a Bother
That’s quite an expression, Pooh has. It could mean so many things. Depends on how you look at it. Oh, isn’t that true of life, in general. It all depends on what you see/choose to see! I’ve probably been a real downer lately, my friend Mari made a bookmark for me that says: “If IContinue reading “Never a Bother”
A Season of Grief
The first day of summer is next week. Although I look out my window and see blue sky, sun streaming in, green grass, beautiful trees; in my heart, I feel mostly winter. Cold, dark winter. It is like the bottom of the well. A cave without light. An empty pit. Hollow. Disconnected. On my continuousContinue reading “A Season of Grief”
