…seeds…

Do you have a "life-verse"? I don't. I've never been a fan of them myself. This is a personal thing, not coming down on anyone who has one. For me, though, I never could focus on a verse…but there are verses I clutch to, tightly. Some, those who get emails from me…may want to disagree …

…rest and dragons…

Continuing from last week…. Rest in the sense I'm using it is not physical rest…it's not kicking back and taking it easy. The rest God promises us is spiritual. He can, and will, provide physical rest…but, again, that's not what we're talking about now. With God we can find rest, even in the most trying …

…rest?…

Are you tired? Worn-out? Are you so busy you find yourself going in circles? Maybe you're so busy you're not moving at all. "I will give you rest"…Jesus says in Matthew. Where is that rest? Did Jesus not follow through on His promise? Is it some carrot at the end of a stick?…we'll get rest …

We see, focus, and acknowledge some things that surround us, but are often oblivious to many others. One thing we're often blind …

…I sat in the rain today…

I sat in the rain today…Seemed like a good idea at the time. Matched my mood. I sat in the rain today…Before you think I am entirely nuts…I was in my car, in a parking lot, away from everything else.  I listened to it hit the roof, the windshield, stared up at the grey skies. …

…triangles…

Geometry…not my favorite subject in school, and I frequently wish I'd paid better attention during class. Now to test your basic knowledge, see if you were better at paying attention. I promise it will be an easy question, no reciting of theorems required. What is an equilateral triangle? It's a triangle with three sides of …
