We had a beautiful snow-topped mountain scene to wake up to in Santa Barbara this morning! That doesn’t often happen here, so it was quite a sight to behold! Unfortunately, it didn’t last very long. Before noon, it was just a beautiful memory — along with a great photo! We are

By Laurie L. Webb – We get so excited at the end of winter when the sun begins shining and it starts warming up, but do we get as enthusiastic when we see the “Son”shine? John 8:12, “Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, ‘I am the light of the
I recently got an iPhone. Truthfully, I went back on forth about it in my mind countless times before I finally signed on the dotted line. As much as I appreciate all it can do, I still have Perpetual iPhone Ambivalence. I love it! I worry about being leashed to
Scout’s troubles began with a roll in the soft green grass of our backyard. What should have been safe was actually extremely dangerous. Hidden in somewhere that lush green carpet was a life threatening menace. The issue first became apparent with a large swelling on the right side of Scout’s neck. This mass
Hirpler? What the heck does hirpler mean? Let’s see… Jacob, alone in the camp. Out of the dark, a Man, an Angel of God, appears. He touches Jacob’s hip, wrenching it out of its socket. Jacob is now a hirpler: a limper. Dawn arises on the two, still locked in
“Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?” Matthew 6:26 One of the things that brings me a little bit of stress relief, and peace,
In a recent opinion piece, Sara Hacala lamented the absence of civility in our daily lives.

As I sip on my morning cup of tea, I look around my room and see my decorative collection of miniature shoes. I have enjoyed collecting these throughout the years! Each one represents a season of my life and something I was, or am still learning! Some were areas of
By Laurie L. Webb – “20 years from now you will more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do”. (Mark Twain) I read this quote earlier today and it has stuck with me ever since. When I look at the past 20 years,
As a moderator on a Christian writing site, I have experienced the site’s occasional hiccups, which happens at one time or another on all sites on the internet. The other day, when trying to access a certain area (that I had permission to enter), I got this message… FORBIDDEN You
By Olga Hermans – This week for some reason I was into this thing of looking up favorite things for this and for that, have you ever done that? I was wondering which Bible verse is the most popular one of all? Of course most people have many, mine personally
Why you will fall out of like with your spouse and what you can do about it. If you’re like many modern couples, you married for love. Your husband was the right one for you, and each of you felt, more or less, that you found the perfect match. Fast
The essence of Easter can be captured in a colorful portrait of a springtime garden, a bouquet of fragrant lilies, or a brilliant sunrise over the sea. These vivid pictures mirror the great happiness believers experience, as we commemorate the miracle of the resurrection of Christ. The joy of all
Early the other morning, I awoke from a vivid dream. In the dream, someone had come up behind me, put their arms around me and held me close. Not knowing who it was, I moved away quickly. Once again they came up behind me and wrapped me in an embrace.
I recently entered a contest, for which I did not win, by the way, for limericks about writing. Here’s my entry… There is an “albino monster” That begs for attention and taunts her It comes out day or night Giving her such a fright That now the “empty page” haunts
It seems I have yet to fully grasp ( or maybe fully embrace) the commandment to love my enemies. References to this directive abounded everywhere I looked this last week. They were in my devotionals, on the Internet, even in the historical novel I am reading, constant reminders to be patient, kind, and
In the neighborhood where I live, I have one neighbor who likes to cause trouble. He picks the fruit from my trees, chops down my shade trees, and mows down my flowers. He dumps trash in my yard, reads my mail, steals my packages from the delivery man, tries to
