The past few months I’ve been carrying on a conversation with a woman who I know to be searching for God’s truth. I’ve encouraged her to read her Bible and she’s had a ton of questions for me, which I’ve been thankful for — however, it’s helped me to realize that I speak Christianese. I [...]
I have found more information online about multitasking and the myths associated with it. I highly recommend you read some of these articles. I personally am going to work on NOT switching tasks so quick that I don’t give each one the attention it deserves.
Multitasking: Function or Fallacy? (Part 1 of 3)
Multitasking: The Mechanics of [...]
Howard is forever getting on me because I leave clothes in the washer and in the dryer. He says he doesn’t understand how I can forget I’m doing laundry. When he does laundry, that’s what he does. I can’t understand how you can “just do laundry.” I mean seriously. I have good intentions. I put [...]
It seems I am constantly looking and thinking about an answer to this question. I know that God says in the Bible we should assemble with other Christians. When we felt God leading us to visit other churches than the one we had been attending for several years, Howard said something to me that’s stuck. [...]
After my post back in November, I had some interesting emails sent to me. One was from a good friend of mine that I’ve known since college. She questioned me on several of the things that I stated in the post and I sent her clarifications of what I meant (I’ll try to dig those [...]
This past Sunday, our pastor preached on 2 parables in Matthew. When he was giving his interpretation of the second parable, I began to feel uneasy. The way he was interpreting the scripture is not the same way I was reading it. Here’s the scripture:
“The Parable of the Pearl of Great Price”
45Again, the kingdom of [...]
15Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
- II Timothy 2:15 KJV
15Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
- II Timothy 2:15 NKJV
For several weeks now, this [...]
Yes, I’m making this more complicated than it needs to be. About 3.5 years ago I was going through many struggles. Nothing major, but my life had gotten outta whack. One day I was talking with the Children’s Pastor at my church (and great friend) just going on and on about how I had to [...]
Along with “Be still…” that I posted about yesterday, I have been thinking a lot lately on the meaning of simple and simplicity. Simple means elementary, easy, not involved, and not complicated. It also means childlike: “childlike trust”; “dewy-eyed innocence”; “listened in round-eyed wonder”.
2Then Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the [...]
9 Two are better than one,
Because they have a good reward for their labor.
10 For if they fall, one will lift up his companion.
But woe to him who is alone when he falls,
For he has no one to help him up.
11 Again, if two lie down together, they will keep warm;
But how can one be [...]
