Do you believe prayer IS answered? Yours? Was what you hoped for what happened? Was your prayer answered in the way (and time) you thought? Can you easily bring to mind your answered prayers? What did you do when the prayer was answered? Thank and Praise the Lord? Share your experience with others, especially those that you asked […]
Do we learn our lessons? Do we know HOW we can ‘prove’ that we have learned? Two simple and observable ways: 1- do we apply what we learn and 2- do we repeat mistakes/sins? Do we truly ‘see’ ourselves? With every learning there is an opportunity to refine ourselves… look us in our eye and
When was the last time you had a body engaged belly laugh? If you can’t remember then it’s been way too long! The kind of humor I’m talking about isn’t the ‘mean, poke fun at, cruel’ form (though how that can be termed ‘humor’ is an oxymoron). The humor I’m indicating is the child-like glee

Hurts and Highs… we all experience both… what do we do with them, how do they define us? Will you look life squarely in the eye and say… actually, what will you say? You do realize that both highs and hurts give us opportunities to learn.? We never seem to stay in one place long… for every

Scary word? Sound like you are giving up ALL control? Does the word leave a bad taste in your mouth? No personal choice? Just how DO you define the word and how is it seen in behavior? Just HOW can we look at obedience, positively? Beginning with a definition to discover if we do understand the word, seems the
Now why would you do that?! You didn’t turn it over until you were at the end of your tether and could do no more, soooo, why take it back? Makes no sense. Yet we do this all the time. What’s our problem! Quite honestly, I’m not too sure we can always point to a
Current events: we will come out of this world-wide culture change and into… what? I’m not certain that we can expect the SOSO. Nor am I certain we want that. If not what was, then what will we create? Your return circumstances may not seem different from what was or… is it? Do you have a
