Joy to the world, the Lord is come; Let earth [...]
The Morning Star
I've always loved the passage in Job, where God is [...]
Twas the Eve Before the Day
It feels to me as though our whole world is pining for truth and justice and an end to strife. We're not there yet, and won't be until Jesus comes again. In the meantime, this Christmas season brings us hope and a glimpse of what's to come.
It’s a Daily Thing
This morning, I read through the some verses about keeping in check with how we live and think. If we are followers of Jesus, we need to keep short accounts with him. After reading, I was asked what sin might be in my life. Right away, I knew what it was.
A Wink of Time
In the meantime, we trust.
A Test of Faith
But ultimately we will find...the Lord Himself waiting to bestow a double blessing on us for our time of testing.
Until Next Time
I'm leaving early tomorrow morning to attend my aunt's memorial [...]
He Will Hold me Fast
Through all of the uncertainty, we found--and continue to find--hope in God.
Change of Plans
It’s a different situation and time, but I have to reflect on brave words I’ve said in public.
Autumn Grief
There are all kinds of grief.
Little Ones to Him Belong
Even if you didn't attend Sunday School as a child, I'll bet you know this song.
She Wore Spectator Pumps
She made an impression with me as a young girl. When she and her family visited our family home in Oregon, she dressed up for church and wore spectator pumps.

Would we forget to pray for our kids and grands if we didn't have the bowl of rocks with their names on them? Probably not, but seeing their names on the rocks is a reminder to both of us to pray for our loved ones.
Light in the Shadows
In our dark world, I'm focusing on the Light. It is my only hope. It can be yours, too.

We Celebrate Eleven
I've had many happy and exciting moments in my life. Falling in love. Getting married. Having three wonderful children, one in heaven. I've climbed mountains, scrambled up rock faces. Crossed the Columbia River Bar and fished in the ocean. Flown in small airplanes with my late husband and son. Snorkeled in the Coral Sea, jumped waves in the Indian and the Pacific Oceans, to name just a few of my adventures...
The Land of Grief
My experience with grief has taught me that walking through that shadow is hard, but during the walk through the shadow, as the psalmist wrote: "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me," Psalm 23: 4, we are promised his presence.
