When life is not what we expect, we can trust God that it can turn out BETTER than what we expect.
Here’s a true story that illustrates that. I heard it on Family Life today.
Dennis Rainey: Walt, you know a very famous person who has had a great impact on a lot of people’s…
Today’s sermon was on the feeding of the 5,000.
If you’ve been a Christian for about 30 years like I have, you would’ve heard a zillion sermons on the feeding of the 5,000 like I have. I’ve studied and taught it myself a zillion times.
Yet, each time I read the Word of God, it…
Kids bring out the best and the worst in me.
I love kids – when they are cute, sweet, cuddly, behaving well, and doing what I tell them to do.
But today, I had to yell at some 8th graders. I lost it. They did not respond to any act of kindness and I had…
It was rather an exciting afternoon moving Audrey into her dorm at UCLA 2 weeks ago.
Audrey’s move-in time was Saturday from 4-5pm. It was bumper to bumper traffic to get into her dorm area. The streets were blocked off into one-way streets which meant we had to take a detour, go all the way around in a circle to get to the parking lot that was right off the main road. In fact, we missed a turn, and had to go around half way again!
I went TWICE to the County Fair this year!
A week ago, I went with Audrey, just the 2 of us. We enjoyed a little time together before she moved into her dorm at UCLA. It was a Thursday with hardly any traffic and no lines at the food stands. Can you believe it, I forgot to bring a camera.
If you think it’s a no-brainer that humans are causing catastrophic global warming, here’s your opportunity to earn an easy US$125,000!
I don’t deal well with losses.
Last night we sold our little Tercel. It made me sad and kept me up part of the night. He (he is a “he” to me although people say cars are female) was such a good little car for us. He was easy to maneuver, got good gas mileage, the radio and air conditioning worked great, and the paint job was not faded though it was a 12-year-old car.
“She had looked her duty courageously in the face and found it a friend – as duty ever is when we meet it frankly.”
(Warning: Spoiler to Anne of Green Gables)
Anne Shirley was faced with a life-changing decision. Will she pursue her own dream of going to college or will she give it up to stay at Green Gables to care for the aging Marilla?
No problem in this relationship:
There’s nothing he wouldn’t do for me, and there’s nothing I wouldn’t do for him, and that’s exactly what we do. We do nothing for each other all the time, that’s right. :)
Heard this on Family Life radio program on the topic of conflicts in a marriage.
i just finished reading The Complete Short Stories of Miss Marple mysteries, by Agatha Christie, of course.
Short who-dunnit stories are fun to read, but they are not as satisfying as a whole novel. There’s no build up to the crime and examining of suspects. The resolution is interesting, but it happens too fast.
