Writing Prompt:
What personality trait in people raises a red flag with you? This may sound cliche, but having grown up in God-fearing family times two meant the Bible became very important. When learning about the American Pioneers and hearing that they learned how to read from the Bible seemed a bit antiquated. Considering I was a…

Sunday Musings
The last couple of Sundays have felt really good. Being in a pew at the evening service has helped my perspective this past week. Maybe a small part of that is getting to watch goodhearted humor like seeing kids on a Sunday night feel that being at church is natural. As natural as it was…

Writing Prompt:
Why do you blog? For me this goes back to my purpose. God gives everyone a purpose or many purposes in life. I have always been reminded by the parable Jesus tells of the Talents. It’s humbling when God shows you your abilities and that they matter. Possibly even to others. Music was the one…

Those words came to mind once again after this afternoon. All throughout time God has dealt with His people who cannot forgive and forget…

Sittin In… A Clinic
Friday was the day Mom had to reschedule an appointment from the day before. If Dad hadn’t have had an agenda of his own that day she would have made it Thursday afternoon, but she canceled it and was fortunately able to find an opening on that Friday morning. Sometimes I feel like I am…
