Mr. Anger a/c man
On Father’s Day my house’s a/c essentially quit working. Not a good day for one’s a/c to quit! Having a/c in Texas in the summer is not an option (like it is places like Colorado and Minnesota). It was…UH OH!! We called around urgently trying to find a technician to come out on Father’s [...]

Grace finds goodness in everything
I encountered some legalism today. And I found myself singing a U2 song that’s a good counter to that. Here’s the words: Grace She takes the blame She covers the shame Removes the stain It could be her name Grace It’s a name for a girl It’s also a thought that Changed the world And [...]

Happy Blogoversary to me!
Oh my goodness! I almost forgot! This month is my blogoversary. It’s been seven years for me blogging! Not seven years at this addy specifically.

Lesson learned
So recently I messed up fairly big. I overstepped my bounds in a friendship. It wasn’t an intentional transgression. But it was still really dumb. So I called this person up and apologized profusely. And my friend said it was cool and that they weren’t upset and just not to let it happen again. But oddly, now I’m still [...]

One moment
I wrote the following poem that I wrote some time ago. Thought I would post it: One moment in time, I could slip and fall, Off the edge of the world, Into the abyss, Will you catch me?? Roller coasters never ending, In the loop again, I’m going to be sick, Bile lurching in my [...]

Sometimes I am so amazed at what a solace the holy scriptures can be. Had kind of a hard weekend. Lots of confusion over a few things. And all it took was reading the Bible on the way to work today. And whoosh…like a strong cool breeze on a sweltering day…there was relief. The Spirit [...]

Robins and calling
Yesterday, after the big storm passed, we found four robin chicks on the ground. Two were sadly already dead. The remaining two were still alive. So, we quickly scooped them up and put them into separate shoe boxes. One of the chicks was severely injurred. But we cleaned the ants off them and tried to feed [...]

Follow…worship…live through Him
My kids are going through the house right now chanting: Follow. Worship. Live through Him. They are at VBS this week at Firewheel Bible Fellowship. If this is all they come away with…it will be a lot. I think I’ll join them. “Follow…worship…”
