I can’t even speak to this verse. It speaks for itself. Oh, that we would hear God’s heart as He cries out to us. May we cry out to Him.

Praying When You Don’t Know What Else to Pray
I’ve been there. I know what it’s like to pray for someone for so long that you feel like you’re praying the same thing over and over. I am absolutely convinced that God hears us when we pray. I am also absolutely convinced that He knows our heart even when we don’t know what to…

Life Out of Focus
I’m a photographer wannabe. I’ve never owned a really good camera, so playing around with my iPhone, Adobe Photoshop, Picasa, and iPhone Apps like Instagram and A Beautiful Mess keep me satisfied… for the time being. I’ve considered buying a more complicated camera, but every time I do, I talk myself out of spending the…
Seafood and Truth
Wow. It was another one of those moments. The light of truth. Some would call it a lightbulb moment. I call it a God moment. Never a coincidence. Always a crossroad.
God Alone
I don’t apologize, nor do I pretend that everyone believes it. From the beginning of time to the present, history proves it. Man has been searching for Truth about God, and He gives it. Truth was recorded by the Ancient of Days, though many ignore it. Creation proclaims His presence, but instead, many worship it.…
Scripture Challenge: 1 CHRONICLES — “A Heart That Sings”
Even though I’m not a talented singer, I still LOVE to sing, and will do so at the top of my lungs ONLY if I’m sure that I’m the only one left in the house or I am driving alone in my car. Whether it’s a sappy song that makes you cry or a jubilant…
Scripture Challenge Recap: Genesis-2 Kings
I realize that not all of my readers are following the Scripture Challenge that I started last year, but it’s a new year and time to get busy memorizing! Even if you didn’t commit to memorizing a passage from every book of the Bible, why not pick a few of these verses and challenge yourself…
Were it Simply A Matter of Resolve
I admit it. I’m done with resolutions and “trying to do better”. How many times have we tried to start a new year off full of good intentions and resolutions, only to find ourselves falling short and disappointing no one but ourselves. Keep reading and you’ll find some encouragement, I promise! I am by no…
2013 in review
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2013 annual report for this blog. Here’s an excerpt: A New York City subway train holds 1,200 people. This blog was viewed about 6,600 times in 2013. If it were a NYC subway train, it would take about 6 trips to carry that many people. Click here to…
HOLD ON!
The clock ticks and it seems the day will never end. Other days time passes far too quickly and we wish we could redeem the time…
Giving Thanks
Consumed by Grace
*Grace: mercy; clemency; pardon *Consuming: strongly and urgently felt This is my desire. Because of HIS GREAT MERCY (He does not give me the punishment I deserve), I want to serve Him in a way that honors Him:
What DO Missionaries Do?!
“Why would anyone want to do that?” “What do they actually DO?” “Why would they go so far away from home?” “How long will they be gone?” The questions are endless, and most of the time I get excited for the chance to tell others about my missionary children. Other times I can be a little…
The Art of Tiptoeing
I’m not a fan of tiptoeing–not the physical form of the word–but in the very emotional and relational sense of the word. Sometimes in life we find ourselves in relationships that cause us to “tiptoe around” sensitive topics. I know why we do it–usually to avoid confrontation or offense, but deep down I feel like…
The Key to Letting Go
“This really feels weird… no keys. This is the first time in a very long time that I don’t have any keys in my pocket!” My son-in-law had arrived at our home after turning in the keys to their temporary living quarters. Just days before they sold the only car they owned. For the next two…
