Life Preserver

1357) Can you think of a time when you had to face something larger than most days dose out? I can and more than one thing comes immediately to mind. The times that were and are must difficult for me are those when I was/am going through something alone. For whatever the reasons were/are, sometimes

Rest Needed

1356) Having a puppy in the house has reminded me that rest is a valuable thing. Cayce (pronounced K-C) is always on the move and before the roosters even stretch and yawn, he’s up, ready for action. He has become a better sleeper at night but I remember the first several weeks after we brought

Rivers are Amazing

1355) Not too far from where I live is a river that rushes under a bridge. When I drive by and I see and hear the water moving quickly, I am amazed that this water is always flowing, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. If I’m in a contemplative mood, I wonder where

Belonging

1354) Being part of a group or family is important. We have this place within us that agrees when God said in Genesis 2:18 it is not good for man to be alone. God has put within us the desire to belong and be accepted by others. Because we are fallible, we don’t always attempt

Bored?

1349) Have you ever heard a child say they are bored? A better question may be, have you ever been bored? I can’t remember the last time I have and as I consider this, there is good and bad to it. If I’m bored then perhaps, I’m not taking some responsibility I have seriously. If

And Justice for All

1348) It is a wonderful thing that in our country, our legal system brings justice, but does it always? Of course not. When humans are behind anything, fallibility is always lurking.
