Supply and Demand
Earlier this year I got a new phone. I needed one with more memory as the older one "lost" memory when I had to do a hard reset. I was constantly clearing cache, removing apps, trying to turn off built-in apps. So I purchased a new phone, with more memory giving me room for regular … Continue reading Supply and Demand
Bitter? I think not…
Where did we leave off? Oh yeah, I remember now...I was sharing with you how looking deeper changed my perception of Naomi and Ruth. A couple of friends and I are participating in an on-line Bible Study together. We're following along with the emails and video's and then talking to one another. I have a … Continue reading Bitter?

Refining, not Defining
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idA6fCAHVzs There's a new show that I love titled Forged. Have you seen it? It's all about forging blades. The first part of the competition the type of blade is announced, materials shown, and design time given. Each of the contestants are given 15 minutes of design time, then two hours to make the blade. Contestants … Continue reading Refining, not Defining

I took a moment to look it up and then read the chapter the verse is in. The chapter speaks of … Continue reading Did you ever?
Wonderment
A couple of weeks ago I suggested to a couple of friends that we study the book of Job. We each have life experiences that are, without a doubt, very challenging at the moment. We decided to go with 5 Habits of a Woman Who Doesn't Quit through Proverbs 31 Ministries, studying the book of and … Continue reading Wonderment
Examining
The last few days I've had the phrase, "help me feel compassion for you" running through my head. Today, Good Friday, is a great day to dig deeply through the crap that sometimes fills my soul and examine that. The selfish, self-righteous, if only you'd listen to me the world would be perfect, I'm way … Continue reading Examining
Holy Week
The last few days or so I keep hearing The same power that rose Jesus from the Grave The same power that commanded death to wait Lives in Us, Lives in us The same power moves mountains when he speaks The same power that can calm a raging sea Lives in Us, Lives in Us … Continue reading Holy Week
Palm Sunday
Passion Sunday Today starts a little bit differently. We greet the Lord as a Great King, carpeting the road with Palm branches, as one would. There is something in the human spirit, in that moment that recognized the Truth of the Experience of Jesus. Perhaps, as often is the case, some joined the crowd so as not to … Continue reading Palm Sunday
