Blaming Others
on February 12th, 2023
“The king’s heart is in the hands of the Lord. He directs it like a watercourse wherever he pleases.” (Proverbs 21:1) I love the story of Ruth Knowlton.

Trusting Your Spouse
on February 11th, 2023
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.

(1 Corinthians 13:4-7)Ernest Hemingway once said, “The best way to find out if ...  Read More

Be a Light to Others
on February 9th, 2023
“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:14-16) Once you become a follower of Christ, God wants to...  Read More

Show up for Others
on February 7th, 2023
A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother. (Proverbs 18:24) No one on the face of this earth has it all together in this aspect of loving.

We are wondering what other people thin...  Read More

Coming Home

But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.  (Luke 15:32) I grew up in a family where I had three sisters, one who was nine years older than me, and two who were younger.

on February 4th, 2023
“Ever since the time of your ancestors you have turned away from my decrees and have not kept them. Return to me, and I will return to you,” says the Lord Almighty. “But you ask, ‘How are we to return?’ “Will a mere mortal rob God?

Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.
