Posted by in Devotionals My husband works in construction and uses this thing they call a wobble light. Obviously its purpose is to give light, but I can’t for the life of me figure out why it is constructed the way it is. It appears to be unstable. Like a strong wind could easily blow it around making light shine…Read more »

Posted by in Devotionals, Stories I was pretty adamant we were not getting a dog. They were too much work. I had four kids. That was enough. I was outvoted. Charlie came to live with us.

Posted by in Devotionals, Love it! I am spending the summer holidays preparing for our fall study on Revelation. I read the letters to the seven churches, noting the commendations, condemnations and promises to overcomers. Meanwhile my seven year old works on his letters. Belching them.

It was one of those times were the light was turned on me (not so much a spotlight but more of a headlight), and in its brightness much was revealed. What I saw wasn’t all pretty, and I sort of went into hiding. I was wounded and felt…Read more »

Posted by in Love it! You stand on the precipice of change and the world stretches big before you. You are preparing to step off the ledge. Before you step – look. Look in. Look around. Look up.
