“The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup; you hold my lot. The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.” Psalm 16:5-6 Psalm 16 hands down stands out as one of my favorite Psalms in all the Psalter.

Grandmother smelled of sugar lemon drops, Juicy Fruit gum, and the mustiness that follows a morning mass filled with incense and random splashes of holy water. She was round, soft, and good for planting several sloppy kisses on me a day. She loved God and she loved me. Few things were as magical as spending … [Read more…]
Listen – a verb. Give one’s attention to a sound. How many of you are driving around town with the same Christmas Carols playing over and over again? I know I am and I recently realized I was hearing them but I wasn’t listening to them. The song “Mary did you know?” came on – … [Read more…]

Picture this: eyes closed, hand held up, head tilted up toward heaven, expression of complete awe on her face, singing all to the … [Read more…]
“In-operative words, non-working wands” (Matthew 12:36 TAB) “A man’s heart determines his speech” (Jesus…Matthew 12:34 TLB) “It’s not working Nana!” “Maybe it needs new batteries”…Words spoken by our two year old grandson. Such words of wisdom: recognition of a problem and a solution at the same time. Oh that we could be so quick to … [Read more…]
When our daughter was a little girl, she would stand on the shore and wait for wave of seawater to wash over her feet and then quickly retrieve back out to sea. This was her idea of playing in the ocean. Anything over her toes was too deep and too terrifying. One day, her dad … [Read more…]
“O, Lord, open his eyes so that he may see.” 2 Kings 6:17 Discouragement is a normal emotion when we’ve experienced some sort of loss, or when we are waiting on God to do something in our lives. It may be that we are waiting on God to find our mate, begin a family, provide … [Read more…]
