Today’s Slices

Blogging is sort of like riding a bike… sometimes it’s easy, like riding on a smooth path; other times it’s a challenge, like a steep incline or like attempting to get back on and ride after falling off the bike.  Anyway… this is for my friend who, yesterday, asked me to keep blogging. So today […]...

Intersecting circles

As our friend visited with me in the kitchen yesterday, I was so profoundly touched by the way God uses incidents in people’s lives to touch the body, to move the body and to soften the body of Christ.  She was relating how the life of a fine young man in their church family was […]...

It’s the most wonderful time of the year

♫ It’s the most wonderful time of the year…  ♪  It’s the happ–iest season of alllllll… ♪ I was baking cookies and making fudge last night while listening from time to time to the music in the background.  I think that song came on a half dozen times and I got to thinking about some […]...

Wedding cakes are baked and frozen… ready and waiting for me to frost on Friday and assemble on Saturday. As […]...

The Tender Mercies of the LORD

We’re home again and it’s really incredibly sweet to be here tonight.  As I look out the window and see the reflection of lights—reflection of lights?!?!? my senses are jangled as we do not ordinarily have “lake front” property…  The flood waters are receding but will likely remain in the farmlands for quite a while.  […]...

Coincidences

I have to laugh at the number of Coincidences that have been happening lately.  By coincidences, I mean, when vertical meets the horizontal –or when the LORD meets us where we’re at.  These sorts of things are like punctuation marks to me.  Kind of an exclamation point to a study or a revelation or whatever… […]...

Sooner than later

I so appreciate our friend’s approach with us regarding nutrition and healthful foods. She’s patiently helping us (well, me–really) see some areas I need to alter regarding the foods we eat (and don’t eat) and how to make some adjustments. I like this manner of addressing food issues bcz I am dealing with more than […]...

Can’t you just learn to control yourself?

I think I must have reverse anorexia. By this, I mean, I think when I look in the mirror I see less than what I see. I also seem less than what I am. And, by this, I mean: when I walk by a space, or see the size of a chair, I think I […]...
