A Better Solution

2349) I learn a lot from my young scholars. Some lessons come as I observe their words and actions. One such observation is when one of them is sharpening a pencil. They’ll grind it and grind it and grind it and then, almost always on cue, they’ll say, This pencil won’t sharpen. At this point,

Knives

2348) For many years now, I have been prone to drop things. I don’t know if there’s a medical problem, but it’s a reality. I have found that if I’m not careful to acknowledge this when I’m holding things that can cause great damage or be damaged if I drop them, it can lead to

Don’t Forget

2347) From time to time I listen to an old talk show program when I’m walking. On one show, I heard the host say to a husband something like, you’d better understand that women have very long memories when it comes to the things in a marriage. I chuckled when I heard it because I

I Know You – Part 2

2346) The dachshund breeder where we got Cayce loves what she does. On her Facebook page, she frequently posts pictures of babies born, and her love and enthusiasm are evident. Sometimes she’ll post on her page (Bald Mountain Dachshunds) sonograms of upcoming litters. I know this is how this lovely lady makes a living, but

I Know You – Part 1

2345) It’s funny, but I was thinking of the Vacation Bible Schools I attended during my childhood. I chuckle over this as in January in Maine, summer is a word that is far, far away. One of the things I remember about VBS is the story of Jesus being the Great Shepherd, using passages including

When God Breaks His Promises

2344) Did my title for this “minute” surprise you? I can assure you I was not writing it as clickbait. How many times have we read a promise from God and wondered, is he really keeping his promises? How about Matthew 7:7–Ask and it will be given you? And you’ve asked and asked for a

Follow Him

2343) When I was small, we often sang in Sunday school, I will make you fishers of men, fishers of men, fishers of men. I will make you fishers of men if you follow me. I always wondered how “following” Jesus is possible because I could only understand the literal meaning. I think the answer

Rolling

2342) There are some days that are more difficult to be a teacher than others. One such time is when we have indoor recess. It’s almost always related to weather. (Though I remember a few times way back when we had indoor recess because black bears were at the school dumpster having a snack.) This

Flattery Will Get You?

2341) There’s a difference between encouraging and flattering. When we encourage, we are supporting someone. We hope to bring confidence and maybe hope. (Oxford Languages.) To flatter someone, we give insincere praise, usually to further one’s own interests. (Oxford Languages.) The word flatter in Hebrew is chalaq, which means to separate and divide.

Price Tags

2340) As I grow older, I find myself thinking and doing things I promised myself when I was younger that I would never do. One of them is to compare how much things cost when I first started out as an adult to the cost of things now. In those first years, I really didn’t
