Thank you for following me as I try to follow Jesus. I last wrote about downsizing in preparation for this new season of serving. That is an action of thoughtful dispersing. I have a note-to-self which reads, “Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful”….

Simple Is Not Always Simple
Thank you for following me as I work at following Jesus. It is only a table and now belongs to the son of one of my dearest friends. I’m “simplifying”. I need increased mobility in this next season of service in other places. It is one more reminder that we can’t take it with us….
Missions: The Why
The sun was shining through the window on a Sunday after church. I was five and had learned about Heaven that day and told my Mom I was going. She explained how I get to Heaven and I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior. No turning back. Baptized at nine, camp counselor, youth and…
What Was He Thinking?
What was he thinking? They thought the man walking on water was a ghost but it was Jesus. Peter was all in with joining the miracle. Don’t you know people like that who want to be in the middle of good things that they had no part in creating? I guess it is human nature….
Swoosh – Swish
It stopped raining. Win for Pam, loss for Seattle. I was finally able to assess the damage of the heavy January rains. My yard is small but still there was toppled art and water-filled pots. I also puzzled over what to trim back as so many leaves looked like a candidate for a compost bin….
John the Sprinter
We know several things about the Apostle John. He knew Jesus. He wrote a tender gospel account. John had a brother and a background in commercial fishing. We also know that he liked to refer to himself as, “the other disciple whom Jesus loved.” He had a meddling and ambitious mother and he could outrun…
The Joy of Missing Out
What is the joy of missing out? I heard this at a WW meeting when we were discussing holiday eating. I love Christmas cookies. This season was not a good one for baking and sharing so I complied. Can you imagine government restrictions on so many happy holiday gatherings but, again, I complied. If there…
The Alternate
Abram was traveling with Lot and Sarai. God said go so he went. Was Abram God’s first pick to be the Father of a great nation? According to the Book of Genesis it was a request from God with a condition. Talk about no GPS, Abram did not have a clue as to this final…
Make an Unknown Future Secure
Hello new year. I am happy about new. Some people may be thinking hell no – a new year. How do we plan for things that may happen that we cannot control? We don’t. We make a list, mental or written, with some things that we can control. Don’t resolute things that are in the…
