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.

slip-slidin’ away…

  So, you’re here again today for a visit at the kitchen table.  I’m having a cup of tea… because of some recent health problems, I’m making some radical changes.  Yes… sniffle, sniffle, one of them includes drastically reducing coffee consumption — caffeine, really, and anything that contributes to high blood-pressure and high cholesterol.  I have a little elevation of one and a lot of the latter.   

So, I’m trying not to get too caught up in the going’s on.  [...]

Dear Sarah…

[ongoing Letters to my friend...]

 

Dear Sarah,
I’m just checking in to say hello and to encourage you to… Press on. )

The weather’s changed just a bit and the day doesn’t seem as bright out — and so I got to thinking about you and am just praying that you’re doing well — that you’re not discouraged with the load you are carrying in this season.

 

So, as I send this, I am praying [...]

more slip slidin’ away…

I’m going to be gardening in the sunshine tomorrow… so a few things I’ll probably be thinking about as I dig around in the dirt.  So, here’s some.  (yeah, it was intended)

“For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes,
and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.”

1 John 2.16

Summer fun: jumping bales

 In case it seems I’ve lost the lighthearted side… I haven’t.  Here’s my lighthearted side.

Jump!

Jump!

Jump!

The local farmers do three cuttings a year… and through the years, the youngest of our children have the greatest time jumping from bale to bale all over the land!  I don’t usually get pictures of this fun event, but my neighbor graciously gave me these!  It’s always a sad day when the tractor loads the bales of hay onto the truck and drives them away.

Two Killers – Two Tragedies.

A career is ended.  During that infamous career, tens of thousands of innocent people were killed.

A tragedy to be sure.  I think of this all day today; what a shame — what a tragic end.  A man responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of innocent children.  I consider these things all day.  I decided to refrain from reading editorials about the man… the man who was shot while attending & ushering at ‘church’ yesterday.  I wonder why he went [...]

Thank you for joining me here today, may the Lord bless you and your home.
