Lately I've been wondering, and I walking my talk? Oh sure, I've got the lingo down and talk a good game, but am I backing it up with my life? Is my behavior consistent with the Biblical truth I absorb from reading the Word? Am I living what I profess to believe? What am I … Continue reading Walking my talk?
This post will be short and sweet. (No, David and Alan, this still does not mean mini Snickers!) It came to me while reading this verse that there are a lot of folks out there that think it is their mission to cut people down to size. They somehow think this makes them bigger, smarter, … Continue reading Cut you down to size
I just want to apologize. I normally do a post once a week. But with the bridge closure, I'm trying to navigate my "new normal." When I do drive to and from work, that adds two hours on my day. I've worked out a schedule for my week now on when I'll spend the night … Continue reading Update
I had a WWJD (What Would Jesus Do) moment this week as a result of the bridge failure where I live. (See my previous post https://godstillspeakstoday.com/2024/04/20/i-did-not-see-that-coming/) The state and county worked really hard to open a detour on a dirt county road to allow us access, twice a day. After five days in town I … Continue reading WWJD Moment

Not being prideful here, but I've always associated myself with the 5 prepared virgins in Matthew 25. “At … Continue reading I did not see that coming

From Everyday Courage by John BevereWhen the fierce wind and waves crashed around them,they could have stood at the bow of the boat without … Continue reading Stormy
There are some days I just astound myself. It is at times like these that I am overwhelmed with gratitude of what Jesus did for me. Someone said something mean and accusing and before I knew it I reacted in a bad way. “ I don't really understand myself, for I want to do what … Continue reading We all have choices
A friend and fellow blogger invited me to do something different for Lent this year. Every day we are reading John 17, and digging deeper to find new insights into the prayer of Jesus right before he was arrested. Verse 20 really stuck out to me. “I am praying not only for these disciples but … Continue reading Exponential
I'm sure we've all had an encounter with a person like this. They know absolutely everything about everything, and are not at all bashful about sharing their advice and opinions about the situation. Nobody likes a know-it-all. It is especially irritating when the start with, “Well if it were me...” and proceed to tell you … Continue reading Know-it-all
My best friend is a ninja! No, really, it's true! She is so stealthy in how she uses her God given talents to help others. She cleans the church. She delivers meals. She looks in on friends who need a little extra help. Just to name a few. She has been helping a friend to … Continue reading Godsend
