How Does Your Garden Grow?

My mornings are running short, again.  Here’s my response to a post by Skip Moen.  Can you sense my frustration?  I want to be obedient, and I want to figure out the Truth, as opposed to tradition.  I don’t even know where to start.  Even when it comes to reading the Bible, right now I…

My Desires

My desires don’t include a Lamborghini (in fact, I really don’t even know how to spell it – I looked it up), but today they include not being sick (summer cold all weekend – yuck), healing for my son with autism (or perhaps just that he would learn to speak clearly), and enough financial blessing that we…

Why vs How

This was a post I read today that really caught my attention and made me think about the way that I read and interpret.  Am I awed and amazed at YHWH and why He does things?  Or am I stuck in the “how?” Click here to read the post. Also, read the first post by…

To Truly Know

Hurry, hurry, hurry! My mornings are insane!  I leave for work at 6am, which has cut my time in the morning in half.  I feel like most of the time I’m posting things from my devotional readings at Skip Moen’s site.  Sigh.  Sorry! This morning the post I read asked a question about knowing God….

Skip Moen's Yom Kippur Post

I wanted to put a link to Skip Moen’s post on Yom Kippur because it was so great!  This is just a small snippet of what he wrote (and, oh, it was so convicting!): I need forgiveness for two kinds of sin.  Both are related to trust.  The first sin is to trust someone or…

Ezer Kenegdo

Genesis 2:18 And the LORD God said, [It is] not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. I have felt recently that I haven’t done a very good job as a wife.  I have no idea what I’m doing sometimes as a mom, but I think…

God and Omniscience

We so often talk about God knowing everything in advance, exactly what will happen and when, but we often don’t follow that to its logical (or rather not-so-logical) conclusion: if God is never wrong and He knows everything I will do in advance, then I have no choice because if I were to choose then…

13 Reasons to Praise Him!

This was posted as a comment on Skip Moen’s blog, but I wanted to repost it here because it clarifies a lot of questions I had/have.  Granted, it’s one person’s view and since I don’t know much about the Jewish beliefs (other than what’s in the Bible), I don’t know if it’s perfectly, precisely, 100%…

Wisdom

Since I’m running late this morning and in light of the new school year starting, I’m posting a link to Skip Moen’s daily word post.  It’s, appropriately, about enlightenment, the relative worth (or lack thereof) of knowledge, and the importance of application.  Have fun! If you’re feeling (I can’t think of the word, but it’s…

First Days

No long post today as I have to run to work early (I’m trying to be there by 6:30 am – school starts at 7:18 am).  It’s the first day back at school for the kiddos! However, Skip has a great post today about how in Yeshua we are all brothers and sisters,  equals.  None…
