I really like to sing. The only problem is that I don’t have a good voice. I cannot carry much of a tune. I like the new songs we sing during worship and the songs I hear on the radio. But there’s something to be said about the old hymns. I grew up listening to… Continue reading Sing

Tangled
My kids love the movie Tangled. I’m not sure why except it is a Disney movie and we love all things Disney! At our farm, I saw this tree that has a fence growing through it all tangled up. I couldn’t help but think that is how I feel a lot of time. Sometimes I’m… Continue reading Tangled
Thorns
Have you ever really stopped and thought about the crown of thorns that Jesus was made to wear when He was crucified? Was He the only one the soldiers made this for? What if it was a regular thing the Romans did to everyone being crucified? What if you were the one whose job it… Continue reading Thorns
Mercy Seat
I’m in Exodus in my daily Bible reading, and to be honest, it’s not the easiest passage to get through. God is giving Moses all these instructions on how to build things like the tabernacle, table, and the ark. But then I began thinking….it is very interesting when you do some comparison. God tells Moses… Continue reading Mercy Seat
Doubt
When I started writing this blog, I told myself I was always going to be completely honest in everything I wrote. With that in mind, sometimes it is hard to write things. This is one of those times. I don’t know about you, but there are times when I doubt. Sometimes I doubt people, things,… Continue reading Doubt
Weary
As an empty nest mom now, I look back on the years of raising two girls and wonder how I made it sometimes. Maybe you think about it sometimes too, or maybe you’re still right in the thick of it. Maybe you’re saying to yourself most days, ‘How am I going to get through this… Continue reading Weary
Hope
Hope. What do you think of when you hear or see the word hope? I think there are two definitions for hope. The first I would consider a worldy one. Dictionary.com defines hope as (noun) the feeling that what is wanted can be had or that events will turn out for the best and (verb)… Continue reading Hope
Banquets
There are many occasions for a banquet. Banquets are mentioned in the Bible several times also. Jesus’ first miracle was at a wedding banquet. Jesus’ feet were washed at a banquet. Jesus told several parables using a banquet. What is it about a banquet? It’s essentially a party. We still have banquets today. We have… Continue reading Banquets
Wait for it…
Waiting is hard. Sometimes it’s the hardest thing we have to do in our lives. I think we spend a lot of our time waiting. We wait for people, for that job promotion, for our food to be ready, for 5 o’clock. I’m sure you can think of many more. For what or on whom… Continue reading Wait for it…
Countershading
The other day I ran across the term countershading. It is defined as a method of camouflage in which an animal’s coloration is darker on the upper side and lighter on the underside of the body. I couldn’t help but think that we do this in our lives sometimes. We ‘put on our best face’ so that people will… Continue reading Countershading
