New Songs, New Mercies
This will be our newest song, freshly broken loaves for his table.
Simple Rest
As this Friday that brings Thanksgiving week upon us, enjoy the simple rest and beauty in the day.
This Chair’s For You
Before the beginning of time, God knew you. Knew what your circumstances would be. You--and I--are the work of his hands. He knows. He cares.
Approaching a New Season
If you aren't grieving a loss, perhaps you can encourage someone who is, by inviting them for a bite to eat so they aren't alone for a meal--a welcome change. Or drop by for a visit on a lonely, quiet evening. Invite them to attend church with you--and pick them up so they don't have to walk into the building by themselves.
It’s Real
You might not have experienced loss as a widow, but I'll bet you've experienced other kinds of loss. It could be death. Health.

I'm not sure why God created seasons, but I'm sure glad He did.
Hello Central

Lucky Thirteen
Some people think Friday the 13th is an unlucky day but for me, that isn’t true.
Six for Six
I couldn't face life I didn't have the hope of that promise.
Change is in the Air
I realize I need to make the most of this day and the time I have left on earth. I will switch gears from the soft summer nights, to the cooler evenings that grow dark more quickly. To the sound of crickets and the need to wear a jacket.
Lessons from a Twig
No one invites death. Or change. Strangeness. Or hard times. But they come to all of us. When they come, how will those changes leave you?
Look Back, Look Forward
Dream a little of the past. Enjoy the precious memories. Then look to the future. That's what I'm going to do. It's a new day.
God Always Knows Best
Sometimes God works in ways least expected. The following [...]
Travels are Fun, But Home is Best!
It is good to travel, but also good to be home.
