Is it possible for us as human beings to comprehend God’s love for us? God’s love is so huge that as the song says “If we with ink the ocean filled or were the skies of parchment made…to write the love of God above would drain the ocean dry…” (“O Love of God” by FrederickContinue reading “What Does the Bible Say about God’s Love?”

A New Way
The Lord says—who makes a way in the sea and a path in the mighty waters, Don’t remember the prior things; don’t ponder ancient history. Look! I’m doing a new thing; now it sprouts up; don’t you recognize it? I’m making a way in the desert, paths in the wilderness. Isaiah 43:16, 18-19 CEB WhatContinue reading “A New Way”
The Savior and His Mother at the Cross
Based on John 19:17-35. As I type the words of the title, my heart wrenches for Mary, the mother of Jesus. I can’t imagine her absolute grief as she watched Him die in such agony. When my son died, he was in a hospital where the doctors and nurses did everything they could for him.Continue reading “The Savior and His Mother at the Cross”
Washing the Feet of Jesus
Scripture: Luke 7:36-50 Have you ever done something for the Lord that seemed a little strange to others, but you were so passionate about it that what others thought didn’t matter? The woman in our story today is one such person. She has a passion to worship Jesus. It seems there is something about HimContinue reading “Washing the Feet of Jesus”
Attitude, Balance, and Sisterly Strife
I have not written in over a month, and apologize to those of you who “can’t wait” to hear from me. Have any of you ever suffered from vertigo? If so, you have my sympathies. I could blame my delay in writing at least partially on that. It was a “fun” few days until IContinue reading “Attitude, Balance, and Sisterly Strife”
Mothers and Not-Mothers
Odd title, I admit, but just keep reading, and I’m hoping you’ll “get it”. Mother’s Day is almost here. It is a wonderful time to celebrate our mothers and if we are really blessed, to have someone celebrate us as “mom”. But for some, Mother’s Day can be painful. Okay, I hate to be negativeContinue reading “Mothers and Not-Mothers”
Happy(?) Valentine’s Day
It is almost Valentine’s Day. To some of us it’s no big deal. We are secure in a wonderful relationship, and we just don’t go all out for it. Others make sure they have reservations for a candlelight dinner with all the trimmings. Chocolates, flowers, followed by a night of romance. (Yes I went there).Continue reading “Happy(?) Valentine’s Day”
Miracles Come to the Old and Young
Do you ever have trouble believing a promise of God or believing He will see you through a particular situation? Perhaps your circumstances seem impossible to bear right now, maybe impossible for even God to handle. Just because it’s the “most wonderful time of the year” does not mean the problems disappear. On the contrary,Continue reading “Miracles Come to the Old and Young”
Women of Christ’s Lineage
How many of us have examined our personal history? Our legacy? Have you ever visited one of those sites that explore your ancestry? Or perhaps you know stories that were handed down word of mouth. My aunt recently went to an ancestry site, and found some interesting facts about our family. Among the treasures ofContinue reading “Women of Christ’s Lineage”
A Path to True Love
Shame cast a deathlike shadow over the young girl. Not only because of the abuse that had happened so long ago, but her shame arrived almost daily as a result of others’ mocking cruelty and learning that whatever she did somehow fell short of expectations. This shadow clung to her even as she grew into a youngContinue reading “A Path to True Love”
