Light pierces the darkness. Light isn’t necessary in a place where it is already illuminated. Jesus said, “ I am the light of the world.” Why would he need to bring His light if the world was already radiant? I am the light of the world. Whoever follows Me will never walk in darkness, but...

After sixty-seven years on this planet, I still have not learned to enjoy the flavor of coffee. Although the tremendous value of the coffee was discovered in the 10th century, I remain unimpressed.

Have any of you attempted to memorize anything lately? I remember learning the alphabet, listing the letters in a song, and filling my brain with multiplication tables using flash cards. I have silly commercials from the 1960' still taking up space in my memory bank, reminding how to spell Jell-O and what carpet company to... Continue Reading →

Join me as I share this life lesson I received from a Robin. Recently I was sitting... Continue Reading →
From the "for what it's worth" department, Wikipedia defines ash as the end product of incomplete combustion. In other words, ashes are the solid remains of fires;residues that remain after something is burned. Did that get your attention? Honestly, I am just avoiding the true subject of this blog, which is; here we go: sin.... Continue Reading →
There has been a seismic, internal change in me since I have turned 65. A new heartbeat, a new, disquieting perception of what I have to offer and what my future holds. What is it about that number that has changed the way I think and plan and dream? Have I been so attuned to... Continue Reading →
