Every Person Has a Story

April 24, 2010

It’s an old saying I mentioned yesterday. And it’s a saying my friend Dominique uses a lot. It has more and more meaning to me all the time. Every Person Has a Story. Here’s a bit of one. I had the privilege of washing this guy’s feet the other day. He shared with me a [...]

Something Better Than Your Blackberry

April 23, 2010 Stories

There is a special quote that has a special place in my heart for lots of reasons, and every time it comes to mind it seems that I gain some new insight from it: Earth is crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God; But only he who sees, takes off his shoes [...]

Sometimes You Just Have to Laugh

We went up Table Mountain Tuesday. Our visitors ended up staying an extra day and a half thanks to the issues with air travel in Europe, and the weather cleared up, so the timing was perfect. And one of our co-workers offered to pay for our tickets to the top, so we were there! Thanks, [...]

Redemption on the Playground OR The God Who’s in Your Corner

April 5, 2010 Stories

This post, and the special picture at the bottom are for my Dad. Thanks for being in my corner! I was a really puny kid. Almost always the smallest in the class. On picture day, they lined us up according to height, shortest to tallest, and I always went first and held up the little [...]

What I Learned at Toys R Us this Morning

March 27, 2010 Stories

We had a few errands to run this morning. They included visiting Toys R Us. My Dad watched the Bear put together his ABCs puzzle at ninja speed on skype a couple weeks ago and wanted to buy him some more puzzles. (They’re educational, and he’s competitive like that. ) But after our slightly difficult [...]
