So, as we consider the whole idea of forgiveness, it might be worth it to look at why God is so much better at it than humans are. After all, God forgives you and me every time we ask Him to. He forgives and then He lets the errors of our ways go, so neither […]
Sometimes we struggle with our connections to others. We feel estranged from people in the family, because they simply can’t understand what we’re going through. We’re still hurt by the recent conversation we had with a friend and so we don’t feel like sharing our concerns with them right now. Beyond that, we simply aren’t […]
Isaiah 44 reminds us that God was pretty specific about His role in the matters of planet earth. He said, “I am the Lord, who made all things. I alone stretched out the heavens. By myself I made the earth and everything in it.” That is certainly clear! For me, that begs the question about […]
If you’ve ever watched one of those amazing circus performances, where one person stands on the shoulders of another, and then another, and then another, you probably can’t help rubbing your own tired shoulders and wondering how they do it. After all, each one has to keep things balanced, and the one holding everyone up […]
Recently, I was able to spend some time with my grandchildren. They are a delight in every way and one of the greatest gifts they give me is the reminder to see the world with wonder. When my four-year-old grandson announced to me something he had learned from when he was a little kid, I […]

Do you remember what it was like when you headed back to school after a long summer? You probably needed new shoes, a new book bag, or a lunch pail. If you lived in a small town, like I did, you hoped for a good homeroom teacher and that some of your friends would be […]
Sometimes I like to ponder what it means for you and me to be created in God’s image. Does that mean that we bear some resemblance to God, even if we don’t share any of His DNA? Does it mean that on a good day, I might do things that seem like something God would […]
I love the line from the original Mary Poppins where Mary says, “Oh, those are pie crust promises…easily made, easily broken!” I suspect most of us make promises with good intentions, feeling sure that we can deliver on whatever it was we said we would do. No doubt, we make efforts to follow through, but […]
Wow! Practically the entire country is sitting under a heat dome. Record temperatures have been noted throughout the South and parts of Arizona, Texas, and Colorado. Extreme temperatures are also finding their way around the globe as they go through Europe, Asia, and parts of the Atlantic. In a word, it’s hot! So how can […]
