I know I’ve spelled this incorrectly but there is a reason. I was reading Revelation 21:1-6. I’ve been using a butterscotch-colored Bible, New American Standard Bible, with the inscription, Robert Verne Orahood. That makes it my Dad’s Bible only all of the notes written over many years are in my Mom’s handwriting – thus the…

Another new word but when I read it I know exactly what it means. I, too, insist upon attention, help, or advice from others. Some days I would rather give out a lot of advice to a lot of people! I think my ideas are better than theirs. We want what we want. This demandingness…

It is summer. I like summer but two years ago when we measured 111 degrees Fahrenheit in June and my friend, Jane, was one of those deaths, I know heat is a danger. I should have considered air conditioning when I moved about seven years ago but on a hot evening one could always go…

Philippians 2:10 states, “…that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those who are in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth,….”. (You can read the surrounding verses for context.) I am no theologian but I am curious so I google it and found a site called, ‘the New Boston…

Lot’s going on these days but several stories converged on the idea that God has promised us a mansion in Heaven. I think of the ‘Hunger Games’ scene where the victors have the nicest home in the sector but in Heaven I imagine everything is heightened, whatever our current reality is or view of awesomeness….

This line from the movie may or may not be in the Jane Austen book, ‘Sense and Sensibility’. It is expertly delivered by Alan Rickman who I miss so much. Don’t you wish the real people we love and miss had been film stars so we could revisit them whenever we want? There are two…

I went to a happy place this morning. I love waterfront so strolled downtown Kirkland, WA, for several miles. Last night I had viewed four testimonies of unfathomable torture on a production from Voice of the Martyrs. I will be picking up on writing about my studies at YWAM Wiler at week three next but…

It is summer and the bikes are out. My neighborhood has no lack of children unless, of the 72 homes there is someone praying for a baby so I will pray. Driving slowly through the streets is now especially important. Yesterday I encountered about a dozen bikes, so paused as they passed. Many are too…

This is not an important post but an interesting post. I stopped writing down words a month ago. I have been reading a variety of books and noting the meanings of “new” words. Some of these writers are either from another planet or know more languages and words than me. I started a list to…
