I missed Costco today.
Instead of our usual date to Costco, my husband and I spent our day preparing our house for a week’s visit from his brother and 2 children.
When I say prepare the house, I don’t mean clean the house. I mean just get one room ready, and take stuff off our…
We had internet issues at home last night. Posting this from yesterday.
I am reminded once again that God is in control. He is good and he answers prayers.
Prayers are not about getting them answered the way we want, but answers that bring glory to God, and accomplishes His purposes.
At my church where I work, we have an indoor basketball gym. As part of my new year resolution to exercise, I was thinking I’ll take breaks throughout the day to shoot some baskets, by myself with hopefully no one watching. I wore my tennis shoes today for that purpose. But there were people in there all day today.
A big part of my work is talking to people, mostly about good things, which is why I love my job. We talk about God and life which is what we are all about.
Today, I am thankful for heart conversations with Sharon W and PT.
My new year resolutions, if I make any, tend to be the same each year. I guess I just want to keep working on those same habits that has not yet been firmly established as a habit.
So for 2019, these are some things I want to work on:
Our tradition is to watch the Rose Parade. I grew up in Pasadena where we went out to Colorado Blvd. every January 1st. I even stayed overnight on the street with my friends one year. If you’ve never done it, I recommend doing it once while you’re young.

So I decided to experiment with my own podcast. Thanks to Aaron for his help whenever I need it.
This was recorded a few weeks ago, and I finally sat down to learn how to…
Thom Rainer mentioned this book in one of his podcasts. He didn’t talk about it, he just mentioned that it was a good book. Since it was available at the library, I read it. If it wasn’t free to read, I don’t think I would’ve bought it. Not that it’s not a good book but it’s not a topic that I would’ve wanted to invest money in. I did want to read it though, because much of what we do in life, in fact almost everything, is teamwork.
Finally decided to read A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L’Engle, and then I find out it’s a Disney movie.
I’m trying to read a book a month; so far I’ve read short books the first 3 months of 2018. The idea is not the length, but just keep reading stuff that I want to read. (check Book Review category)
“Here’s the version you’re most likely to hear: “We have to focus on our people. So many of them are immature and in desperate need of spiritual instruction. If we prioritize the growth and maturity of our people then that will have a trickle-down impact on their passion and ability to live on…
