Book Metaphors

I came across an entry in one of my notebooks, and it was good to be reminded that God is the Author of life, and He knows how to write and finish good stories. When life happens and things change, whether we like those things or not, we need to turn the page. And...

Looking Back Again

Round about a year ago, I was looking for a new job, a new place to live, and a new direction in my life. Now I have two jobs, a place to live, and enough direction to figure out where I should probably head from here. I'm probably going to sound like a broken record...

New Year, New Schedule

Once again, I find myself changing my blog schedule. I'll be posting my blogs on Tuesday, since my new schedule this year allows better writing time on that day. Speaking of new schedules, this past year has been full of changes for me. I went from one job to another,...

Healing Wounds

Some say that time heals all wounds. Some say time heals nothing, it merely brings a scar and less pain. I say only the Great Physician can heal all wounds. Does healing still take time? Yes. Anything worthwhile takes time. Will you still have a scar? That depends on...

So Tiny…

His-story

All of what has happened in time is written by and controlled by God. It is His story - history. I've written about stories before, about how we each have one that God has written for us (Character Development). But there is an over-arching story, a metanarrative....

Who Do You Obey?

Last night, while in the little kids' class at church, we had a summary from the previous lessons. The kids have been learning through the book of Genesis. When we got to the part about Adam and Eve sinning, the kids were asked what Adam and Eve did. One answer was...

Pictures and Words

I picked this interesting tidbit up in the Sunday School lesson yesterday. In children's books, there are mostly and sometimes only pictures. But as nice a pictures are, at some point you will need words to explain them. As we get older we learn to read and understand...
