Boldly Going Where Lots of People Already Are

Travelling Tuesday: Pringle Bay & Surrogate Grandparents

There’s some great stuff happening in our neck of the woods! The gift heard ’round the world should finally arrive this afternoon, and I’m looking forward to posting pictures and sharing the backstory of how the Lord came through when it finally gets here! In the meantime this Travelling Tuesday I thought I’d share a few [...]

Confession

I have a confession to make. I know I said I was going to cut the Bear’s hair. Well, I did cut the Bear’s hair. And that’s the honest truth. But what’s also the truth is… I didn’t really want to cut his curls yet. So I just cut the hair that was hanging in [...]

Discouraged to EncouragED

Guys and gals, you are awesome. Seriously. I feel like I’d almost forgotten what it was like to interact with people you’ve known for longer than six months. If you were one of the folks who decided to say a prayer, send a message or leave a comment, thank you thank you thank you. I [...]

Discouraged to Encourage

Hey my friends, I don’t have much happy stuff to say right now. There are probably some nice and encouraging posts in my backlog that I could share with you. They would talk about the Bible and how good the Lord is and hopefully be an encouragement to you. But I suppose it would be [...]

How’s Ministry? with LFS

I haven’t talked too much about what’s happening with our ministry lately. That’s mainly because right now, most of our work involves networking, meetings, gathering documents from different continents to open bank accounts and P.O. Boxes, and working on being able to import shoes to give away in South Africa without paying duties and taxes. [...]

Tasty Tuesday: Do the Leftover Stretch

I‘ve decided to create a Tasty Tuesday post for Beauty and Bedlam this week, simply because my mother-in-law is a genius in the kitchen, and I need to share the genius-ness with you. I’m obviously not a genius since I just tried to say geniusness. Although I probably put on a few pounds every time [...]

Travelling Tuesday: OBX

Happy Tuesday! I hope your week is going well. I thought I’d share some shots with you from a part of the world I miss very much: my beloved North Carolina! When Hero Hubby and I were back there raising ministry support a couple years ago, some wonderful ministry partners offered their beach place in [...]

I Wish They’d All Just Go To Hell

Did I catch your attention? Ever feel that way? I was reading Psalm 55 the other day and realised that David was praying his heart out and literally saying he wanted his enemies to go straight to hell — like, to fall into the pit of hell, still breathing. Do not pass go, do not [...]

Gone Posting, but don’t feel sorry for me

We are thoroughly enjoying having a friend staying with us this weekend! Which means I am baking and cooking (and enjoying the fruits of said labour) and I don’t have anything super special to share with you here today. However! A post of mine has been featured on my friend Annie Beth’s site, so I [...]

Your Heart Will Follow Your Head

I was recently reading in Numbers 11, where the children of Israel have begun their journey from Egypt to the Promised Land. God had provided manna for them to eat, and was leading them with His presence day and night. They began to complain because they only had manna to eat, and they looked back [...]
