Witness of Omission
If you read last time, you know I am teaching in the preschool Sunday school class. Last week we learned about David and Goliath — inspired by finding a parachute in the teacher prep room. The kids...

Easier to Plan than Thank
It is my pleasure to be teaching the preschool Sunday School class these days. I remember back from my substitute teaching days half the high school class that walked out on me after discussing that...

Sand and Seashells
Maybe you haven’t noticed, but I have only posted 4 times this whole year in a blog nearly 5 years old. I have heard and seen God many more times than that, right? And honestly, every now and then...

Into Dark Waters
We have a new old favorite place. It is a short walk away and is open again to passers-by. A few years back, one of the land owners had roped it off and chased us off with colorful threats, showering...

Noah’s Waters
Where are your thoughts lately? Among Noah’s Waters today, I remembered that I am part of something bigger than myself. Is not the murky water in the canal I sat next to this morning the same water...

A Walk Under Orion’s Belt
I walked under Orion’s belt last night. You know, that big body-looking constellation that rises with evening this time of year — well, at least here in the flatlands. I was walking to the parent...

The Best Valentine Ever
I read a love story last night. It was quite different from the smut novels I read in college or even the “Christian” romance of my high school years (interspersed between reads of Frank Peretti and...

‘Tis the Season
The all school Christmas program — remember? Girls in frilly dresses and boys in ties (some of them), cranky parents and crying babies. You see it all at that program too — the parents filming every...

Where Thanks is Absent
Did you watch Little House on the Prairie? Did you read the books? Do you remember in The Long Winter how the girls had to stay under the covers all day just to stay warm (alive) in that harsh...

So Be It
The bully blue jay is back at my feeder — yet another example of God’s creation of remarkable beauty until the mouth opens. But if it weren’t for him and his annoying screech to all his friends, the...

52 Weeks
Tomorrow is the actual anniversary day, the 10th. The date never made a difference to me except on June 10th, a Wednesday, a full gestational age. Wednesdays have been the marker for passage of a...

The Spider’s Thread
I touched a spider’s web yesterday. On purpose. It has been a spider year here, particularly the orb spider from what I see and hear. Their webs are classic Halloween style, big, angularly rounded,...

Blessing of Laughter
I learned something last night not from a screen. Old school, I know. I was lying in bed next to my daughter — it was later for her than usual and she had hit that point of too tired to fall asleep...

Bad-Hair-Day Hair
Did you mix with a body of believers yesterday? Did you hear a good sermon, sing a great worship song? Did the lady behind you need a tissue or the man ahead of you need a nudge to stay awake? Did...

Fly By
Yes, this is about Pluto. It is about a journey that took 9-1/2 years to carry out one of its goals — and that is just in-air time. It is about something so far away, 3 billion miles, with an...

Bethlehem Star
Last night I was watching boring and mindless TV. I received a text from a friend asking if I could see the Bethlehem Star. My reply was, Huh? Her response was something like, You are usually up on...

Tu-whit, tu-whoo
I woke up a few nights ago to a visit from an old friend. Of course, I went to sleep with one too if you count the toad in the neighborhood doing his thing and croaking all night long. But it is a...

Blood Moon
Did you see the blood moon this morning? From my window, it was an amazing eclipse but not a red one. I was wakened by my housemate to go and see it. I usually pay attention to sky happenings but...

Ordinary and Common
Happy Spring! I took a few walks down to the Owl Tree this week. The first time I came across this rambling pattern of bird prints. It’s like many of these little birds were following an ant and/or...

A Falling Flower and an Answer
My mom recently planted an amaryllis. Have you watched one of those cycle? The stalk grows sometimes inches in a day. You have to wait on the flower, but then, boom, it just pops out. Shortly...
