Oh, I can tell it's February, because my house is getting cluttered. Gray skies combined with cold weather make me slow down and want to spend my life in front of my computer screen, rather than working on my house or being generally sociable with anyone... including my kids! So today's list "To ... Read More about Decluttering plans
Speaking Life
I was listening to a CD tonight by Gary Ezzo, entitled "Speaking Life." He gave two fictitious scenarios, each dealing with the same man who had fallen into sin during a tough time in his life. In the first scenario, Word of Truth Community Church passed judgment on him and disciplined him, ... Read More about Speaking Life
Doctrinal statements
There's something funny about doctrinal statements. We write them, quote them, and believe them because they're supposed to be based on the unchanging Word of God. Why, then, if they are so rock-solid, are there so many different ones? Why do genuine believers have so many differences (albeit in ... Read More about Doctrinal statements

When He leads me, I do not want. I lack no good thing (Ps. 84:11). Think of what that means! See also Matthew 6:25-33 and ... Read More about God’s good nature
Answers to prayer
Isaiah 65:24 says, "And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear." What a precious promise! This verse has been filling my head the last day, and God has been fulfilling this promise in my life, too. How sweet it is to know that ... Read More about Answers to prayer
Being a Generous Wife
One of my favorite email lists that I receive (almost daily) is a small note filled with ideas on how to be a generous wife.
