Second post today…wanted to share the devotional for today, February 24, in “Streams in the Desert”. “You may be very discontented with yourself. You are no genius, have no brilliant gifts, and are inconspicuous for any special faculty. Mediocrity is the law of your existence. Your days are remarkable for nothing but sameness and insipidity. […]
The Crud
It’s my turn. Sore throat, fever, and a day at home today. At least Jon won’t catch it from me!!
No Second Causes
As you probably know, one of my favorite authors in Hannah Whitall Smith. I just finished reading “The Unselfishness of God”, and I love this quote: “Every fear, every perplexity, every anxiety, find an all-satisfying answer in God–He Himself, what He is in nature and character. His ways, or His plans, or even His promises, […]
Hump Day
Hump day!! I’m glad there are only 2 work days left this week. Yesterday I only worked a half day after going to a funeral in the morning. We’ve caught 5 mice within 6 feet of my desk in the last couple of weeks. UUGGHHH!!!! Glad they are caught…wish they didn’t exist!!!!I came home from […]
Sunday Potpourri
We had a good Sunday. Pastor Murdoch was here to preach and really connected with all of the congregation…more so than I’ve ever seen any time he’s been here before. He preached on the four kinds of faith…head faith (knowledge only), dead faith (no fruit in the life), devil’s faith (fully knowing the truth but […]
Olympics Are Back!!!
The Olympics are back!!! I love watching the Olympics, and I think the winter games are my favorite. It’s so sad that the luger died today…21, wow. I don’t understand what people put themselves in order to compete. I like to watch, but I don’t get what it takes inside a person to do that. […]
Doctors Again
For healthy people it sure seems we are going to the doctor a lot. Me last week, Jon twice this week, me again tomorrow…One of these days we’ll get it all figured out. Any big plans for the weekend? We have some potential plans with Jon on call to keep it interesting. Tomorrow is Trever’s […]
From "Streams in the Desert"
This is the February 7 devotional in “Streams in the Desert” “Why art thou cast down, O my soul” (Psalm 43:5). Is there ever any ground to be cast down? There are two reasons, but only two. If we are as yet unconverted, we have ground to be cast down; or if we have been […]
Super Bowl Sunday
Today is a big celebration day! It’s Jon (Holthe’s) birthday and the Super Bowl! So nice of the NFL to throw a party for him! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JON!!My Jon was out on call till about noon today. We both got a nap this afternoon, and I baked cookies while doing laundry. Our Super Bowl party […]
In Process
I hope your week is going well. Do you have weekend plans? We’re planning on going out to eat with friends Friday night and planning on going to Tre’s game on Saturday. Then, of course, there’s the snow that Jon will get to move after it all falls…another 4 to 5 inches they’re saying. I’ve […]
