Live like you were dying

January 31, 2009

That’s the name of the teaching series at church.  We’ve missed the first two, however, we did make it to church today and what was the topic?  Forgiveness … our pastor having been on the dying end of pastoral care, the last thing a person wants and hopes for is to forgive and be forgiven. 
In our [...]

Mercy Me Cover song – “Thriller”

January 31, 2009

I just saw this video.   I laughed so hard – it’s nice to know Christian Artists can still be goofy.   Musicians are musicians, no matter what the genre, they just have that off the wall humor, which makes me like them even more.  This is Mercy Me.

What do you revert to?

January 31, 2009

The class we are taking at church is focused on the leadership development skill of working with people.   This class was originally designed for Biblical Counselor Training.  As a matter of fact, that is the name of the class, however, the teacher/pastor redesigned the class to also include small group leaders or anyone wanting to [...]

No words

January 28, 2009

There’s alot of things fluttering through my brain tonight.  I can’t seem to get a handle on any of the thoughts, they zoom by too fast to land.  Of course it doesn’t help that my eczema has flared up so bad, it is taking everything I have to concentrate on typing, instead of scratching my [...]

I still have everything …

January 26, 2009

After my post yesterday, this is was in my email this morning.  Booga?  No, just another confirmation that He is here with me, you, all of us.  What a great story about Dan.

I Still Have Everything…

But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not [...]

What do you struggle with?

January 25, 2009

I can’t believe I’m writing this, but I’m compelled to write this to the world.  Maybe it’s a confession and maybe it’s a healing, but what are your struggles?  What do you push aside and hope they’ll go away? 
Hubby retired last year because if he didn’t retire, he’d lose the insurance supplement, because the state [...]

Brown Rice

January 24, 2009

I love brown rice.  What I don’t like about it, is the time it takes to make it.  I either overcook it or it’s crunchy.  When our office manager goes to take care of her sister & family during her Chemo treatment, she shops at Trader Joes.  It’s around the corner from her sis’s house [...]

Layers and Layers

January 23, 2009

As you can see from yesterday’s pictures, we are having quite an inversion going on.  The last couple of days, the valley has been socked in with clouds, rain/slush.  However, the lake has been rainy, cloudy but with visibility.  Driving home tonight the weather changed from rain, to snow, to a mix with fog, to [...]

Pictures

January 22, 2009

The weather has been cloudy and rainy.  Driving home, I had to pull over to take pics of the clouds covering the valley as I was driving off the mountain on Hwy 50. 

I forgot about this cloud … I took it a few weeks ago, as it hung over my neighborhood.  What do you see [...]

And this says it all …

I just read this POST that I thought was well written and speaks how I feel.   Thanks, Lori, for putting into words what my brain was thinking.
