One day spent in Your house, this beautiful place of worship, beats thousands spent on Greek island beaches. I’d rather scrub floors in the house of my God than be honored as a guest in the palace of sin. Psalm 84:10 MSG I love to worship. It is the one thing I like best afterContinue reading “the magnetic pull of focus”

bedazzled? beware!
Over coffee last night, a girl friend and I were sharing a bit of our backgrounds & story with one another….as new girlfriends are likely to do as part of our get to know each other chats (Right girlfriends ;D) She mentioned how sometimes when something seems to good to be true, it is aContinue reading “bedazzled? beware!”
God is…Faithful
Faithful. We don’t often see faithfulness as a quality to be admired in our culture today. In our rush to satisfy our own needs, we forget how it honors God when we show honor and put one another first. In Joshua 2, we see how God proves faithful to His people, and how He isContinue reading “God is…Faithful”
your true character
You know that under pressure, your faith-life is forced into the open and shows its true colors. Let it do its work…James 1:2-4 (MSG) I find the character of Joseph echoes throughout this verse, not just because colors are mentioned.

womb with a view
This title would not let me go: Womb with a view. What else would you call it? Jesus, one third of the Trinity, enfolded His divinity with the help of Holy Spirit and became flesh, bone & blood in a virgin’s womb. Wow. Just that action, a flash of a nanomoment in human time, sentContinue reading “womb with a view”
weards
I made up a word today. Weards. (I may not have actually, but for the purposes of today’s post, let’s pretend I did for how I am about to use it!) By my definition, weards are words meant to be heard: words/heard w starts us off ear reflects hearing d to show the word’s almostContinue reading “weards”
waterfall
There is a waterfall up ahead. How wet you get depends on how close you get to the water. God’s love runs deeper than we can fathom higher than our eye can see stronger than death or illness wider than the horizon is off afar a tap missing a shut off valve, it keeps goingContinue reading “waterfall”
