life. They made him approachable, loving and forgiving.
Facing
the Lion in a Spiritually Uneven Marriage
What complicates matters is

marriage?

from a Mall Food Court

Act

Reminders, Warning Signals, and the Whirlwind

here to learn is to appreciate what we have, take care of it,
and enjoy it. Life has a way of seeing that we do this...

Is My What?

on the family tree. You ask all the old-timers in the family
what they remember about all their kin. You get dates from land,
military and census records. You finally exhaust the paper
trail…and you’ve only been able to trace back a couple of
hundred years!

Devotionals
There's
a Lesson in Here Somewhere
Maybe this is how we learn
that our marriage, our commitment, and our promise are bigger
than the two of us individually. Or is this simply a lesson
in being quiet and listening? When there is nothing to do but
wait, we can listen. And maybe we can hear.
Worrying
or Faith? I Choose Faith
My husband tells me on a regular basis to quit worrying about so
much. I am a natural worry wart and have been for as long as I
can remember. Being a worrier, at least in my case, can go
hand-in-hand with being a control freak.
"It's
Mine!" A Devotional
Making my way into the playroom, I could see that this
scuffle was not going to resolve itself without a little adult
interaction.

Certainly Are Misunderstood

In Our Relationship With God

Winter
Blues
The short and cold days of the winter often cause individuals to

depression when the bills roll in from excessive holiday
spending.
Switching
Channels
We get a gift of a brand new
Magical TV which has unlimited access to all the beautiful
channels. When we tune in to any one of the millions of
stations, we become embraced with wonderful joy-filled feelings.
Leading
Me Home
I had always been somewhat of a feminist. I had firmly
believed that I would be a "career woman" and never be
a stay-at-home mom.
Learning
About God Over Summer Vacation
With summertime come blessings of nature, as evidenced in just
about everything we see.
Redeeming
The Time
Time is an elusive thing. It slips away from us so easily,
leaving us wondering if we have indeed used our time wisely.
Finding
Time for God
Raising children, taking care of a home and a husband can
overwhelm us to the point that we begin to sacrifice our most
important relationship.
Life
Lessons from Broccoli
I couldn't understand why they had grown so strange when
they had everything that I thought they needed.
Christ taught us to forgive and
forget, love one another, even to love our
enemies. How in the
world do we do that?
