7-8 God’s laws are perfect. They protect us, make us wise, and give us joy and light. 9 God’s laws are pure, eternal, just. 10 They are more desirable than gold. They are sweeter than honey dripping from a honeycomb. 11 For they warn us away from harm and give success to those who obey them. After establishing that…

Wholly Holey
It’s been more than 3 months since the onset of this current Chronic Fatigue episode. I spent the first month denying and fighting it, and the second impatiently resentful. Though not out of the woods yet, I’m adjusting now. I’m happy, though wistful, watching others move forward with things I love doing. If you had…
Impossible?
This picture caught my eye. What seems more impossible than a flower growing in concrete? Yet, there it is. It didn’t think about it or worry about it. It just grew. “We are all faced with a series of great opportunities brilliantly disguised as impossible situations.” Chuck Swindoll “Most of the important things in the…
Heavenly Sunshine
The sun was streaming through the kitchen window as I stood at the table folding laundry. Missy hopped up to see what I was doing and sat down to be companionable. Quickly I folded a rag towel and put it where she could lounge comfortably in the sun, and we could enjoy each other’s company….
Psalm 19: 1-6
The heavens are telling the glory of God; they are a marvelous display of his craftsmanship. 2 Day and night they keep on telling about God. 3-4 Without a sound or word, silent in the skies, their message reaches out to all the world. The sun lives in the heavens where God placed it 5 and moves out…
Special Sunday!
Tomorrow, Sunday, is special. Not only is it Super Bowl Sunday (important to many people), it is Groundhog Day (important to almost no one). But the icing on the cake is the date. 02/02/2020 is a rare, eight-digit palindrome! (Reading the same backward and forward.) The last one was 11/02/2011. Sunday’s palindrome is extra-extra special,…
Two Psalms: Side by Side
I started to read Psalm 16 with the intent of using it in the blog. But the more I read and studied it, the more Psalm 23 kept coming into my mind and rather insistently, too. So instead of just one Psalm, doled out sparingly like candy, I am giving you two. Both are in…
I’ve Never!
“Oh, don’t the days seem lank and long When all goes right and nothing goes wrong, And isn’t your life extremely flat With nothing whatever to grumble at!” W. S. Gilbert in Princess Ida I’ve noticed recently that I grumble and complain a lot. It’s fun, easy and I’m very, very good at it. But…
Critter Feeding
Lord, all living things depend on you. You give them food at the right time.You give it, and they eat it. They are filled with good food from your open hands. Psalm 104:27-28 Easy-to-Read Version (ERV) Squirrels visit the birdfeeders, too; we have a squirrel-baffle attached to prevent easy access, though. But one particularly enterprising squirrel invented…
Watch the Birdies!
O Lord, what an amazing variety of all you have created!Wild and wonderful is this world you have made,while wisdom was there at your side.This world is full of so many creatures, yet each belongs to you!Psalm 104:24 The Passion Translation (TPT) We justify the expense of feeding the birds by calling it a “Kitty…
