I’ve just been amazed at God so regularly lately. I guess I have really been feeling the strength of what happens when you commit youself to a ministry. God teaches you, guides you through it, and sustains you. I’ve been working with the PBCC Jr. High as well as Hyde’s Christian Club. Both have kept Read More
This past week has been one of reflection and thanks. The images from Passion of the Christ are still fresh in my mind as I reflect. You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore, honor God with your body. (I Corinthians 19b-20) You were bought with a price, do not become Read More
Yes I do. Well, some of his songs are a little freaky, and maybe even a bit satanic. But, I find him overall to be thoughtful and very musically interesting. I could work to his music all day long. In fact, I have! Here’s one song that’s really been catching my interest: Spoon Spoon in Read More
Josh and I came home from work today and dinner was ready! Josh’s folks are visiting and they totally made us dinner! It was awesome. I can’t remember the last time someone had dinner ready for me when I came home. Schweet. They’re doing a bunch of other stuff too…especially helping with our move. It Read More
Today: Sunny. High 79F. Winds NW at 10 to 20 mph. Currently 73F. Tonight: Generally clear. Low near 50F. Winds NNW at 5 to 10 mph. *Steph makes a Nelson Muntz style Ha-Ha to all the people in the midwest.* My life is in boxes…but slowly working it’s way out. Josh’s folks are visiting this Read More
Darn it. I typed this once…and now I’m typing it again because I closed the wrong window without saving first. So, here goes…again…. I’m way tired today. I’m doing all I can to put on the brakes of my freight train life. I want it to slow down, but sometimes God has other plans. My Read More
…but the lemons are dropping everywhere! Not that any of my Minnesota friends will be able to help me with this. See, this new place that Josh and I just moved into has a lemon tree in the back. It’s very cool, but every day I pick like 5 icky lemons off the ground. So, Read More
They seem neverending. I’m amazed at how much random junk we have. I think I mostly finished the bedroom & kitchen and am now moving on to unpacking the bathrooms. Josh’s job involves anything with cords and plugs and stringing cords along walls. I hate those jobs. So, hopefully this will be done soon so Read More
God is good (Psalms 119:68, 136:1). God loves me and wants me to have his best (Romans 8:32, 38-39). I am complete and accepted in Christ (Ephesians 1:4-6). God is enough (Psalm 23:1). God can be trusted (Isaiah 28:16). God doesn’t make any mistakes (Isaiah 46:10). God’s grace is sufficient for me (2 Corinthians 12:9). Read More
Again, I find myself thankful for the normal everyday things that make you feel sane. After yesterday I was a little emotionally messed up and stressed. I woke up this morning (an hour earlier than usual because I had to go to a stupid meeting) and wanted the day to be over. I brushed my Read More
