For the last several years, it has been my practice that in December I enter into a time of reflection on the closing year, and goal setting for the next. They say that something like only 8% of New Years Resolutions are kept, and I’ve certainly made regular contributions to the 92% failure rate. Yet in spite of all those ‘failed’ resolutions, I have made great progress towards the fulfilling … Continue reading Press on!
Here’s the thing about taking ‘a leap of faith’. In order for it to qualify as a ‘leap’, there has to be a period of time that you are in a free-fall of some sort or another.

I love to garden – to slip on my gloves and green rubber boots, and get out there to play in the dirt. Especially in the spring, when gardening energies run high.

A few years back, my family … Continue reading Dining With Jesus
I hope you enjoyed Part 1 of this post. Thankfully, it turned out that my imagination was the enemy that day. But not all my enemies have been imaginary, and a few of them have been terrifying. My heart is in anguish within me; the terrors of death have fallen on me. Fear and trembling have beset me; horror has overwhelmed me. I said, “Oh, that I had the wings of a dove! I would … Continue reading 911 (Part 2) – When The Enemy Is At The Door

Jeremy does a fabulous job in bring home the simple yet profound truth that once we really know how deeply and completely we are loved by God, fear looses it’s power over us! Somewhere within the … Continue reading Who Cares
