This has just been one of those seasons where it has been one thing after another. With each challenge that has presented itself, I have been able to hand it over to God and trust…..mostly. There is still that little part of me that has found it easy to trust because I have mentally assessed … More When It is Not Well with Your Soul
Outcasts. Who loves the unlovely in our world? Or, more specifically, in the church, the Body of Christ? Who decides which of us belongs in the box called “untouchables”? I am in that box many times, but God did not put me there. Many times, others place me there. Sometimes, I consign myself to … More Tumbleweeds and Birdsong
Have you ever looked at a river? I mean really looked at one…its nature, its flow, its changeability yet still remaining the same?

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come; The old has gone, the new is here! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message … More Reconciliation

But perfect loves drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.” I have read that verse many times … More Perfect Love Drives Out Fear
Last week, my son, who is an only child, was feeling sorry for himself because he had no one to play with.

Then, it kind of hit me that it … More When Blessings Become Lost in Hardships
In my lifetime the standard of beauty has varied widely. From stick thin Kate Moss to big booty Kim Kardashein. I want to know, has anyone ever stopped to wonder what Eve looked like?
