Every evening sky, an invitation
To trace the patterned stars
And early in July, a celebration
For freedom that is ours
And I notice You
In children’s games
In those who watch them from the shade
Every drop of sun is [...]

I told you I wanted to do a healing post soon. As I started thinking about it and as my dh and I discussed what it is we “believe” about healing, I started realizing, it’s not just about that one aspect of my faith. To say what I believe about something like healing starts with [...]

I don’t remember the first time I heard the Chronicles of Narnia. Mama used to read them to us on vacation. I loved riding in the car and listening to her read about Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy. As soon as I was old enough, I began to read them. I remember being in an [...]

I didn’t have a pen with me at church today. I wish I did because I really wanted to take notes. This was actually a 2-parter and I missed the 1st week. (Why? Well, it had something to do with my bed and me sleeping in it. But I don’t want to get into the [...]

I told you about my “God is like laundry” analogy yesterday. You have to admit, it’s true. You think I could copyright that? Anyway, I’ve actually been thinking about another theological analogy. Being pregnant has got me thinking about faith. You know, “the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not [...]

I usually keep up to date with Shannon from Rocks in My Dryer and Sophie aka Boomama. And I knew (and was insanely jealous) that they were going to Uganda with Compassion International. Live blogging about the lives of children who need love and Jesus? That’s my kinda gig.
For whatever reason, I missed out on [...]

So, it’s Thursday and I’m just getting my sermon recap up. My no internet thing did a number on me! In fact, I wrote this whole post out on a legal pad yesterday. For real. Well, I was in the car. No, I wasn’t driving. Les was in the bank getting a cashier’s check to [...]

I have loved Jesus my whole life. I have. I don’t remember not loving Him. My earliest memories are of church, singing in our “extended session” after Sunday School, going to children’s church, listening to Christian music at home, talking about Jesus and being involved in the things of the Lord.
But I still have a [...]

Today is the 35th anniversary of the legalization of abortion.
I took Lydia downtown today to join Georgia Right To Life’s Memorial for the Unborn.
From the time I woke up, I was thinking about how I’d blog this. I don’t want to start an abortion debate. I’m not a good debater. I believe what I believe. [...]

I bought my hubby a CD for Christmas. Yeah, I’m a big spender. It was actually a gift from Lydia to her Daddy. It’s a cd by Sara Groves called, Station Wagon: Songs for Parents. Do you know Sara Groves? I love her! She’s close to my age, has preschool kids and just writes personal [...]
