prayer

One of our greatest obstacles to prayer is ANSWERED prayer. We assume we know how God will answer - how He will work -- that because He has answered in a specific way in the past -- He will do thus now. We must seek what God *will* do, not just on what He *has* done. If we prayer for what we think God can answer, we limit Him to our own imagination instead of being open to *whatever* HE will do or however HE will answer and lead.

Homemade Laundry Soap – easy – still!!

I’m using the ingredients (above) + water to make “homemade” laundry soap – and after several months of doing so, I’m still pretty satisfied with the results.   I’d still use Tide if it showed up on my doorstep and I’d still use Downey if someone forced me to.  ~wink~  But for the first time in my marriage, I’m more concerned with saving money than I am with the most *perfect* looking clothes.  Our clothes are clean [...]

(mis)perception — even still, God so loved the world that He gave…

And yet… the world goes on in its perception: [...]

It’s December 18th

I thought I’d better just log-in, write something, share a few thoughts or blog an entry in order to dispel any thoughts that I dropped off the face of the earth.  Or am still coughing.  Or am still sick.  Okay, I’m not sick… but am still coughing.

It’s December 18th and all through the house every creature is stirring — even a mouse!  Little traps are all set with peanut butter and bacon — in hopes that the little creature would [...]

Still sick… but not with the same thing – this is a new week, so I have a new bug… now the flu has come through our home and I, a gracious hostess, somehow seemed willing to host this unwelcome guest for the last couple of days.  I’m really surprised to have sickness linger… so, yeah… sick again.

Cool to have the laptop here beside the bed so I can listen to tremendous sermons while I rest.  Gotta say… Paul Washer is [...]

Men Pleasers
I’ve often wondered how, or by what means, the church will be carried away — what will it look like when the elect are deceived (Mark 13.22) and who’ll deceive and be deceived (2Timothy 3.13).  When “An influential evangelical leader is coming under fire for saying in a NPR interview he believes in homosexual civil unions and that Christians who oppose same-sex marriage and abortion may still find reasons to support Obama.” the  church ought to take notice!
