Recently I've been shown reality. The reality of how much God loves me. And I am just beginning to scratch the surface. So as I read this from Fil Anderson's book, Running on Empty I was struck by the message again. “Two years ago, while my family was spending a week on the North Carolina … Continue reading I love you this much!
An atheist was helping his daughter who was learning to read. He thought he'd get two lessons in one by showing her what he believed. He wrote on a piece of paper, “God is nowhere.” He handed it to her and asked her to read it out loud. She was doing it slowing, sounding it … Continue reading Spelling
A lady was about to take a bath when the pastor showed up at her house and knocked on the door. She was just about to step in the tub, so did not answer the door. The pastor slipped a card through the mail slot that said “Look! I am standing at the door of … Continue reading Fun with the Bible

So I stopped everything and asked God. After just sitting with it awhile, I felt God saying this—My love. Two simple yet incredibly … Continue reading Lent 2026 #5 Cleaning House
Full confession...I am a dumpster diver. We have a thrift shop in town that has a special dumpster that they put their discards in. I, and others, have sorted through it to find treasures. I have found some amazing vests, blazers etc. that are almost like brand new to spruce up my wardrobe. And free … Continue reading Lent 2026 #4 Dumpster Diving
As I mentioned in last week's post, I am fasting from offense this year for Lent. I listen to a podcast on my way to work, and Thursday the pastor brought up Socrates and his wife.
