It’s Nice to be Seen and Heard

September 10, 2010 Stories

The “coincidences” just continue. And I keep thinking just one of you might be coming around here, still wondering if I’m making things up, or if I’m slightly delusional, or if I am just calling the daffodil of coincidence a rose by another name. Or something like that. My plan is to just keep telling stories, [...]

When God Doesn’t Seem Good

May 7, 2010 The Good Word

In Matthew 15 and Mark 7, the story is recorded of a Syro-Phoenician Woman who asks Jesus to heal her daughter. Every time I read this story, I see something new. And as we’ve been speaking of pressing through it seems yet another lesson is here, waiting for us to get it. The woman asks [...]

May 5, 2010 The Good Word

Sometimes when trials come my way, it would be my preference to go around them, rather than through them.

I was also talking about “coincidences” a couple weeks ago and how things come together way too often in my life for me to chalk things up to Mr. Chance [...]

Meat!

When I first started walking with God, I prayed and things happened. I asked Him for things and they were there. I must be the greatest Christian ever! I thought. It was so encouraging to feel like God was so near. When I read God’s Word and I didn’t understand, I asked Him to help [...]

Don’t be a Ninnymuggins

March 5, 2010 The Good Word
Be an Einstein!

If you are a regular reader of the Word of God, or even an occasional listener or peruser, you have probably had the opportunity to think about the ways of the children of Israel, and think that they were ninnymugginses. Seriously. God delivers them from slavery in Egypt and they complain and want to go [...]
