Reward First

Posted on August 29, 2023August 29, 2023 by Pam

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

Posted on August 26, 2023August 26, 2023 by Pam

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

Posted on August 24, 2023August 26, 2023 by Pam

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

Posted on August 22, 2023August 26, 2023 by Pam

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

Posted on August 20, 2023August 20, 2023 by Pam

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?

Posted on August 19, 2023August 19, 2023 by Pam

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

Posted on August 12, 2023August 14, 2023 by Pam

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,…

When Will the Ground Start Shaking?

Posted on August 11, 2023August 11, 2023 by Pam

I do not believe that God works for me but I am laboring over some prayers. They are in a journal that is visited often. I think these two prayers for others fit. I mean “fit” to suggest that they conform with God’s word and, I think, will benefit these good people, thus, benefitting the…

Another Reason to Speak Up

Posted on July 27, 2023July 27, 2023 by Pam

I read a post from Marshall Segal that was published in my church newsletter. It contains quotes from C.S. Lewis (still my fav). I won’t plagiarize this wise piece but would remind you that nothing is new under the sun. I study, read other’s work, I chew on thoughts, listen to pastors and teachers and…

Awsome

Posted on July 27, 2023July 27, 2023 by Pam

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…

"Thoughts from a genuinely evaluative mind."

Pam writes so that must make her a writer. Recently retired, she can now fill days with family, friends, missions, writing, creating, and showing up for whomever needs her. Pam loves the Lord and people. The Bible is God’s love letter to us (and who does not need more love) so she studies and writes some more.

Pam lives in the Pacific Northwest but was home-grown in Southern California. She attended San Jose Bible College and finished a Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry at UCLA. She became a teacher, then a Research and Development Chemist, then she built two successful real estate businesses in two states. Pam also pursued study at Fuller Theological Seminary and just completed six months serving in missions abroad.

Pam has two amazing children, married to two precious in-laws, and five sweet grandchildren. Pam is a gifted connector and communicator and the Northwest has the perfect climate for staying inside and writing – or baking! She has been writing since a wee one and is currently converting many years of blogging, by topic, into ten books. The first is a collection from 2011 titled, Beautiful Enough. The second is a yearly day-timer titled, Weekly Planner - Lessons in Life, Glory, and Grace. Number three is in progress with the working title, Christmas Today.

Ten facts about Pam in no particular order:

  1. On the team that developed an insulation for the Alaskan oil pipeline.
  2. Loves looking at homes, decorating, and has flipped five homes.
  3. Likes being tall.
  4. Films have helped define her vocabulary.
  5. Comes from Colorado tenement farmers with history traced to Wales.
  6. Was lost but now is found.
  7. Baking makes her happy – as does eating sweets with coffee, of course.
  8. She thinks mission work is the most important work in the world.
  9. The church started in Rome so she is learning Italian.
  10. Pam is a work in progress!

“I will be your God throughout your lifetime - until your hair is white with age. I made you, and I will care for you. I will carry you along and save you.” Isaiah 46:4
