Bring It 2014!
It’s New Year’s Eve as I sit at my computer and write. Many years, the old passes and the new comes without me even giving it a second thought. I try to avoid all of the New Year’s Eve hoopla because I have no one to share it with. It’s that loneliness that seems to […]
Contemplating Complacency
A friend recently boasted to me that he had lost seven pounds. When I tried to button my jeans Monday morning, I decided that I knew exactly where those seven pounds had gone—and I was more than willing to return them! Seven pounds was a huge eye-opener to me. You see, five years ago when […]
Give Thanks…

The Author and Perfecter of My Faith

Lord, Let My Child Fail
My daughter came home from school last night in her normal mood. But, as the evening wore on, I noticed a change in her demeanor. She became quiet, distracted. “Mom,” she finally blurted out. “I don’t want to get a zero.” The story began to unfold as she explained to me that she had a […]
