Weathering the Storm

We’re stoked about the Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon being given by the downtown Scottish Rite Children’s Hospital which includes our North location volunteers. It’s going to be a great way to spend a Saturday with some other volunteers going with me. We are decked out in our 50s and 60s outfits because, after all, a prize…

She’s a Looney Toon

Remember those wacky, wild, half-witted Looney Tunes characters? We laughed at their shenanigans who seemed to always be getting into some kind of trouble. They gave us plenty of comedy relief. We often think the same thing of overzealous Christians. They are the ones who are standing on a street corner waving a “Jesus is…

Passing the Baton

My husband and I walked into our kitchen and curled up in the middle of the floor was a huge black snake. As any brave and fearless warrior would do, he grabbed our son’s close-by baseball bat and proceeded to send him to the “great beyond”. I’ll spare giving you the visual of my kitchen…

Calling All Mountain Climbers and Mountain Movers!

It seems everywhere we look, there are unconquerable mountains in front of us – both in the natural and the spiritual. This photo prompted me to write this blog. Mountains symbolize obstacles, immovability, challenges — and if it’s a mountain the size of Kilimanjaro — maybe hopelessness. But mountains also symbolize conquering, overcoming obstacles, making…

He Brought the House Down

I started typing this post days ago after I awoke in the night and the words “He brought the house down” were going through my head. “What does that mean, Lord?” This scripture came to me: “In my Father’s house are many mansions. I go to prepare a place for you.” (John 14:2) Okay, Lord,…
