A Wise Answer

2605) Growing up in the church, I was always confused when I heard adults say they are listening to God’s words and guidance. A child can only process this in terms of what he or she knows and they will often think, God’s words and guidance must be audible and even in face-to-face interaction. Because

Be Prepared

2604) When I was a teacher, we would have fire drills so that if a fire happened, the adults and students would be prepared. (We actually had a fire once at school, and this preparation helped tremendously.) I am interested in always being prepared for the unexpected things in life. In this preparation, however, I

Integrity

2603) Integrity is valuable. I define it as choosing to do the right thing when no one else is watching. What makes it take on more value in my eyes is these right choices are not as common these days. Proverbs 10:9 tells us that someone walking in integrity walks securely. (ESV) Making the choice

Prepare

2602) I have two small businesses I have nurtured through the years. I sell my sewing projects on Etsy, and then my writing career works within many online places. In either of these businesses, Proverbs 24:27 is a big help. It reminds us to prepare your work outside; get everything ready for yourself in the

If It Doesn’t Work…

2601) Have you ever wondered why we sometimes repeat specific words or behaviors when they have a history of not delivering the outcome we wanted? For example, my young scholars might tell me that the pencil sharpener isn’t sharpening, and yet, they continue to use the sharpener and the pencil gets smaller. I’d look at

Passive Aggression

2600) Aggressive people sometimes scare me. I can feel the anxiety building up in my body, and it makes me very uncomfortable. But passive aggression isn’t always obvious, so I don’t always react when I experience it. Of the two, I think that passive aggression can be more destructive because it’s subtle. Proverbs 26:18-19 addresses

Types of Praise

2599) When we praise someone, we often use words. This is a great meal. Your child is so polite. You have been so helpful. Some praises are rooted deep within. Thank you for your support. You make me feel safe. The kindness you shared touched me deeply. There are some praises that aren’t as obvious,

Monkey See…

2598) I had a friend, “Jane”, who seems to be unusually sensitive to the words and phrases people say. I saw this clearly in a conversation I had with her concerning another friend, “Tim”. Without even thinking about it, I used a phrase Tim uses regularly, and Jane, contemptuously said, you’re just parroting Tim and

Where is God?

2597) One thing I have struggled with throughout my life is the fact that, in this life, we cannot see God. We can’t turn to him in a room, see him and continue a conversation, reading his body language, hearing his tone of voice and, of course, listening to what he says. Yes, I know

Heart Examination

2596) As a language arts teacher in the second half of my career, I had my young scholars write a 100-200 word journal, with a different prompt each day. The students actually enjoyed this because I tried to come up with unique and interesting prompts. There were prompts that my young scholars consistently found difficult;
