I wonder if ironing is becoming a thing of the past. I’ve heard many people say they do not iron. Me? I continue to iron. I don’t iron as much as I used to, but I cannot fathom wearing certain articles of clothing without ironing them. A friend who has been married over twenty years…

He’s Looking For Someone To Bless
“For the eyes of the Lord move to and fro throughout the earth that He may strongly support those whose heart is completely His…” 2 Chronicles 16:9 (NASB) In the past, I had my own interpretation of this verse… “For the eyes of the Lord move to and fro throughout the earth that He may…
God Is Not The One To Blame
“You parents—if your children ask for a loaf of bread, do you give them a stone instead? Or if they ask for a fish, do you give them a snake? Of course not! So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give…
You Never Know Where It’s Been
Solomon, my Golden Retriever, was chewing. Not a good sign. He should only be chewing twice daily while standing in front of his food bowl or when receiving a treat for an act of obedience, a trick, or a bribe. It was none of these occasions so it was time for investigating. I don’t know…
The Password
I’m old enough to remember life without the internet, but now I do so many things online, I wonder how I lived without it. Paying bills, shopping, blogging and a host (no pun intended) of other things have made life easier. Usually. One thing that can pose a problem is remembering my passwords. I appreciate…
The Herbal Hair Experience
God created vitamins and herbs, so there must be beneficial uses for each of them. I enjoy discovering their benefits, so when I found the herb mixture for conditioning hair, I was interested. The advertisement promised soft, shiny hair. I purchased a pound of the magical herb mixture, anticipating amazing results. I couldn’t keep this…
The Good Old Days
The older we get, the more we seem to talk about the past. I suppose it’s because we have more past to remember. My grandparents loved to reminisce, always ending with “those were the good old days!” Funny how those “good old days” were filled with stories about living through the Great Depression, being very…
Happy Ending
I love a happy ending. I won’t watch a movie or read a book if I am aware the story does not end happily. I will endure some hard times along the way, but in the end, I want happy. Maybe I am naive or possibly in denial, but there is enough drama in real…
He Healed Them All
“And great multitudes followed Him, and He healed them all.” Matthew 12:15b (NKJV) He, being Jesus. All, meaning all. Have you ever read through the Gospels, focusing on Jesus and who He healed, how He healed, when He healed and what He said when He healed? If you never have, I highly recommend it. And…
Gerber Baby Syndrome
Years ago, when my firstborn was a baby, I visited with a friend. It seemed to be a good time to share a recurring thought I had about my daughter. “I think she could be the Gerber Baby,” I said with firm assurance. I was certain my friend would agree since she could see my…
