There are so many songs I love to sing. There are words that jump out and have faith meaning. My recent fav is 10,000 Reasons. There is nothing missing in that song. Care, as a word, is mentioned often in scripture. “God will take care of you…Take care of the church…Because he cares for you…Members…

Jesus is Always the Punch Line
A dear friend just sent me a recent speech from Pope Francis. She meant for me to be encouraged as it encouraged her. Kudos for lovers of people who reach out to share encouragement. I’m wondering if I am in a bad mood because the content did quite the opposite. I read waiting for the…
Three Hours
What began as a typical Monday outing turned into three crazy hours of shopping. I missed the mark. I don’t know why it bothers me so much except that I view time as my friend and I don’t like it wasted. I was mailing something to my sister so success at the post office except…
Reward First
When HGTV first appeared I could not have been happier. I even loved the personal “make-over” shows where the experts helped us regular people (limited fashion sense) transform into a prince or princess. One such show was on fixing up a home for resale or flipping. I have a little experience with this because of…
Living Free
Living free with Phil Miller was week five. Barbara Miller also assisted with the training. The outline was; 1) original design, 2) the supernatural, and 3) blockage. Original design has everything to do with God’s will, my part in affecting God’s will, and how God has equipped me for His plan. We are made in…
Solfrid Exploring Holy Spirit
I’m back to YWAM and focusing on what teaching had an effect on my heart and perspective. This is not really a summary of any sort but a collection. In 1970 I left Lawndale, California, as a high school graduate and spent the insurance money, on a year at San Jose Bible College, from a…
Sometimes I look like David
David surprised everyone (except God and maybe Jonathan) when he became king. He did not look like a king. You know the account in I Sam 16:6-13. “The Lord said to Samuel, ‘Get up and anoint him. He is the one.’ Samuel took the horn with the oil in it, and poured the special oil…
The Old-Time Religion
I have several older hymn books that I enjoy playing from on my piano. This hymn, The Old-Time Religion, has five stanzas and, in my opinion, gives a great summary of faith. The response is always, “And it’s good enough for me”. This is what the writer says (‘It’ being the Old-Time Religion), It was…
Do You Like Pudding?
I recently spent some precious time with three of my five grandchildren in Idaho. So many conversations! I know what the word voice-over means but with children it is hard, sometimes, to keep up. I remembered after returning home that the youngest asked me if I liked pudding. At least I think it was him….
Short and Sweet
I’ve made notes today on fleeting thoughts that do not make a blog. I do want to pass on a few ideas for you to chew on… I’VE EARNED AND I DESERVE I, I, I, is the center of our thoughts most of the time. Me, me, me, prevents us from thinking about you, you,…
