Happy last week of July! I’m not sure where the month went. It’s been a blur of work primarily around our home. Normally I look forward to the end of July (because of the heat and humidity), but this year feels like it’s all moving a bit too quickly even for me! I have been …
Every day last week I opened up the browser tab to write my weekly newsletter to you all. Then I sat and stared at it. I wanted to write, but all I could come up with was a torrent of angry words. Over the years of blogging I’ve learned that I don’t want to write …
"This is my Father’s world: Oh, let me ne’er forget That though the wrong seems oft so strong, God is the ruler yet."
Psalm 27 The LORD is my light and my salvation— whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life— whom shall I dread? When the wicked came upon me to devour my flesh, my enemies and foes stumbled and fell. Though an army encamps around me, my heart will not fear; though …
Morning Hope – Psalm 138 I give you thanks, O LORD, with my whole heart;before the gods I sing your praise; I bow down toward your holy templeand give thanks to your name for your steadfast love and your faithfulness,for you have exalted above all thingsyour name and your word. On the day I called, …
I hope your week is off to a good start. I’m personally feeling the impact of scraping by on 5-6 hours of broken sleep for a number of weeks now. I sleep less well in the summer anyway, but this summer seems especially bad. I know many people love naps, but I have never been …
It’s easy for me to forget that my always homeschooled child has no real concept of what “school” entails. As I was working on our high school plans this summer, I realized I needed to start by educating Caroline as to what I was doing. I want to solicit her input as much as possible, …
I hope your July has been an enjoyable one so far. It’s hard to believe we are half way through the month. The past two weeks have simply flown by. We never had bluebirds around until our neighbors put nesting boxes in their yard. Over the past two years we’ve seen them more frequently. This …
Psalm 18:25-31 To the faithful You show Yourself faithful, to the blameless You show Yourself blameless; to the pure You show Yourself pure, but to the crooked You show Yourself shrewd. For You save an afflicted people, but You humble those with haughty eyes. For You, O LORD, light my lamp;z my God lights up …
Great conversation between Jon Harris and J.D. Hall. Only one problem with it. It was too short.
James 3:13-18 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good conduct, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. But if you harbor bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast in it or deny the truth. Such wisdom does not come from above, …
Happy July! I hope you had an enjoyable Independence Day. Ours was quiet. David is in the midst of two large projects so he is working long hours, six days a week. We’re thankful for God’s provision. Last week someone contacted me about working on a long-term project together. It was a brilliant idea that …
