Just wanted you to see what the end of the day looks like. I will carry a flashlight starting tomorrow because of the construction and cobblestones here, plus my cold-weather boots started to fall apart today. Sometimes I am a wimp. I sliced my finger last week and am remembering that I do not like…

That phrase was in a song sung at church this morning. It is so beautiful. The morning was eventful because power went out at the library and we had already set up our mini-library for people to check out or purchase wonderful books for all ages. Hard decision but I was left behind to carry…

How wonderful to have a talent for making people feel at ease. Friendly people have those personalities that notice people and don’t wait to be noticed. Lucky you – use it wisely. Friendly is a personality trait but a more refined trait is kindness. Gal 5:22-23 gives us a good list, “But the fruit of…

Today I rode the most adorable tram to the library for our children’s Saturday event. It looks like a Disney ride from the 60’s. I’ll eventually remember to snap a photo but am usually rushing to hop on. With 25 sleeps to go I am checking some Czech things off my list. I am hoping…

Was God out of gas after He created the world in six days? I doubt it but He called for rest. Why did God call for rest in Gen 2:1-3? “Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God finished His work that He…

My tummy is upset and not much sleep. I’ve never Ubered in Berlin. From an urban spot (with my tree) only four minutes to pickup! So happy. Finally over the bug and fit to finish. I was so relieved that I over-tipped the driver. As I exit the vehicle the Berlin Central Train Station does…

Well, it will be my window for two more sleeps as I prep to return to the Crossroads Library in Prague for 33 more sleeps, then back to US. The tree stands out (or more accurately – up) in the urban landscape of Berlin (to the right of window frame). Here’s how it looked the…

I had no idea how to spell dog eared but that is what phones are for. I sent this postcard to my cousin, Becky (who has traversed the globe), at least a month ago so the condition of this did not surprise her. As I had been trying to complete the library inventory in Berlin,…

The house at this address was a house prison. The house at Prinz-Georg-Straℬe 10 is where people can find freedom in Christ. Both addresses are in Berlin. While prayer-walking some dark places in this city, I have looked for links to my past in 1978 and to the 1933’s-1945’s, thirteen of the most horrible and…

Is it starve a cold and feed a fever or feed a cold and starve a fever? The immune system needs more calories to fight infection and recover when you are sick. This means the idea of starving fevers could be a myth as hydrating (feeding) a fever might be even more critical than feeding…
