Discerning Lies in My Own Mind

We are daily bombarded with lies and it is important to be able to tell when something we hear on TV or from another individual is a lie. But sometimes the lies come in our own mind, as our own thoughts. Those lies are sometimes...

Biblical Prayers – My Tuesday Three

Today I want to just share three of my favorite prayers from scripture. No commentary, just the scripture, in part because I just don’t have the time or energy for commentary and in part because they have the power to stand alone and require no...

Psalm 21 – Praise to the Lord for Victory

I seem to have used up my creativity in poetry this week and couldn’t think of a clever way to choose a Psalm, so again I’m just going in order of the next Psalm that I’ve never posted before. And that is Psalm 21. This...

Psalm 20 – A Prayer for You

For My Sister – Priceless Pictures

On our summer trip to Austin to visit family, my sister took a ton of pictures. Well, okay, she only took 801, but that’s still a lot of pictures in a week. Then when we arrived at my house after our afternoon flight home I...

I Love to Tell the Story

Yesterday in church our opening hymn was “I Love to Tell the Story.” It is one of those great old hymns where you really don’t need to have the words on the overhead screen or in the bulletin because everyone knows it. I don’t think we’ve...
