Walking Together in Wisdom
As a child, I was somewhat intrigued by fighting. You may remember the story of me punching a kid in the head who made fun of my sister. And kicking the boys (in the you-know-where) that tried to kiss me on the playground in elementary school. I grew up watching WWF with my West Virginia... Continue Reading →
Have you ever started a project that you were sure was so simple that you could finish in no time (without any help from anyone else!), but when you got started it was more complicated than you thought, and drug out so long that you actually never completed it? Or maybe you’ve had ideals of... Continue Reading →
Have you ever been what is generally termed a “rubbernecker”? This is a person, especially on the road, that slows WAY down when they see an accident, trying to take in all the details. I couldn’t begin to tell you why, because when I pass an accident, the last thing I want to see is... Continue Reading →
Hope. What a powerful little word. As you may know, we’re walking with my Dad through his cancer journey, and he faces his first chemo treatment today. Prayers appreciated for that- thank you!

Have you ever seen a label in clothing that size "One Size Fits Most"? It's usually on something like a big blanket with a hood (you know what I'm talking about), or fun socks, or those little slippers with the elastic around the top. Looking at those items, you might say "How does this not... Continue Reading →
I have been studying "waiting on God" for the life group I'm in right now, and God showed me something most of you probably already know. But it was a powerful lesson for me! James 1:2-42 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; 3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith... Continue Reading →
Have you ever used the garbage disposal in your sink, and it just sounded funky? Like there was something in there, but you weren't sure what was it was; but whatever it was, it was certainly not 'right'? Because, while the junk from the sink is getting ground up and whatever 'disposed of' means in... Continue Reading →
Psalm 106:9-15(9) He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them through the depths, as through the wilderness.(10) And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.(11) And the waters covered their enemies: there was not one...
