Katy’s Weblog
On my birthday today, I have some random thoughts.
– I don’t like to look at past photos of my children when they were little. It makes me grieve the lost of childhood with them. Those days are gone and there is no going back. I rather look at pictures of what they are doing now so I can enjoy the present.
There is help for those with muscle pain. When I had knee pain, my doctor referred me to see a physical therapist. The therapist gave me ultrasound treatments that eased the pain.
Now you can do it yourself at home. Try the LG-TEC Dual Combo TENS Unit and Muscle Stimulator. I don’t know if…
I was talking to a friend about decision making. Every decision we make involves some kind of risk.
If we choose to go to Hawaii, we risk the opportunity lost of not going to Paris.
If we choose to go to law school, we risk the opportunity lost of being an engineer.
Whenever someone says that they are not being “fed” by their pastor’s preaching at their church, I tell them to not criticize or complain. Afterall, it is not easy to deliver a good sermon every Sunday. Not every pastor is a good preacher.
Rather than expecting your pastor to “feed” you (and I don’t think…
In my Sunday School lesson, I taught from Charles Stanley’s principle that “you know you are growing in your relationship with Christ when spiritual battles are more fierce and you are still rejoicing.”
Rejoicing during hard times is not natural. It’s supernatural, and that is why it is an indication that you are growing spiritually.
People who know me recommended Julie and Julia. They know I only watch nice movies: no sex, no violence, no tear-jerkers, no drama, no vulgar language, no social agendas, no cheesy love stories, and of course, no bad endings.
Julie and Julia is my type of movie. I was waiting for something bad to happen…and nothing did. It was all good.
Voices of the Faithful with Beth Moore is a unique blend of daily devotions, missionary stories, and Bible teaching.
The collection of missionaries’ experiences from around the world are organized as daily devotions into monthly topics such as God’s Character, Prayer, Contentment, Spiritual Warfare. Each month begins with an introduction of the theme by Beth Moore. I’ve always enjoyed Beth Moore’s insights and personable style.

I grew up in Pasadena. I grew up watching the Rose Parade.

I never got tired of it. I loved the excitement and crowds, and picking up roses from the street after the parade.
On Family Life, Dennis Rainey gave a simple way to find a spouse:
Focus on running towards Jesus, and along the way, look to the side to see who is there.
That’s how I found my husband :)
Some games are fun because they are fun games. But most games are only fun if the people playing them are fun.
Take for example the game Apples to Apples. If you play with people who are not fun, and do not put effort into making it fun, it’s not a fun game.
Life is like that.
