   What do you do, how do you feel when a project you’ve been working on is successfully accomplished? Basking a few moments in the satisfaction that you have completed it is quite acceptable and I would think – mandatory. However, when basking becomes excessive, this is as useless as wallowing in other more negative […]

  Related? In any fashion? Let me share what I read in a very charming book, part of a very charming series by Susan Wittig Albert. The following is from Book 3, page 234 in “The Tale of Cuckoo Brow Wood”, her Beatrix Potter series:      “It is undeniably true that the imagination is far

   If you were asked this… what would be the first words out of your mouth? Do you know? Would the words be descriptive? And what ‘kind’ of description – materialistic, philosophical, personal?

  Actually this phrase came from a post by a friend that struck a chord with me. It’s true. We all need discipline but we also need diligence in order to place our new learning into our mindset. In my world of definitions, knowledge is just that until the lessons it provided merges into your

  As long as you continue to grow, never accept others’ ‘definition’ of your Christian maturity. People do tend to do this to one another. Early in my Christian walk I learned about walking in the light I had – and I have learned that this is what’s important. Too often we (and others) look
