No Compromises

830) So much of what we do today to be successful is to compromise when conflict arises. When you have a problem between a parent and child, compromise is a great tool. In marriages, there must be give and take so that the relationship can strengthen. There are times, however, that compromise should be avoided

Comfort Zone

829) Each of us has a “comfort zone,” and if we reflect honestly on our interactions with others, we often try to get the other person to relate to us in our comfort zone. If we would rather hide ourselves, we might try to keep all conversation with others superficial. Proverbs 29:22 describes another comfort

Peaceful Silence

828) What people say reflects who they are. It is so easy to “show” ourselves to other in what we say and much harder to bite our tongues and think before we speak. Proverbs 29:20 lets us know about the trouble with words. If we speak without thinking, there is a big opportunity to say

Mercy Exposed

827) One thing I enjoy doing with my middle school students is giving them an idiom sheet with half of it missing and they have to fill in the rest. For example, “The early bird….” and I had one student fill in, “is tired.” It’s a time where we can learn and laugh together. In

It’s No Joke

824) I must admit that I like many of the “old” sitcoms. Gilligan’s Island, The Andy Griffith Show, Leave it to Beaver and more. The humor these episodes use is different from the humor of many things in the media today. Many “jokes” are mean, at someone else’s expense, and/or course. To me, that’s just

Iron Supplements

825) Being a member of the human race can be difficult. You never know how any encounter with others will go. There’re misunderstandings, misspoken words, not to mention jealousy, envy and more. If this is all there is as we interact with others, it would be understandable if we are tempted to withdraw from others.

A Strange Dog’s Ears

823) I have always had a healthy (?) respect for dogs. If I see one, especially a dog larger than my dachshund, I am cautious about how I approach it or how I act when it approaches me. Why? Because I do not know if the dog is friendly. Proverbs 26:17 tells us that pulling

His View

822) Sometimes it can seem like the “bad people” around us often get away with things, but when they don’t, how do you respond? I would be lying if I said that I don’t feel a certain satisfaction when someone who has treated me poorly gets knocked down a notch or two, but this isn’t

Human Chameleons

821) I live in an area in our country that has a lot of wildlife. It’s amazing how many members of the animal kingdom have such wonderful camouflage. They show up in different habitats and change to suit the area. Chameleons, from a different part of our country, are another example of creatures that change

Neither a Borrower nor a Lender Be

Neither a Borrower nor a Lender Be 820) Borrowing is addressed in the Bible. Once such example is in Proverbs 22:7, which plainly says that a borrower is a slave to the lender. Kind of a no-brainer, right? Well, I got to thinking about this and wonder could this also apply to our relationship with
