“Jesus said, “Everyone who drinks this water will get thirsty again and again. Anyone who drinks the water I give will never thirst—not ever. The water I give will be an artesian spring within, gushing fountains of endless life.” (John 4:13-14) * * * The Samaritan woman came to the well and Jesus, feeling tired […]

Last week we talked about growth and making changes, the “empty hand” trap, and exploring who we are. I hope you’re having as much fun as I’ve had going through these exercises. There’s something exciting about stepping back and looking at who you are as a whole, rather than identifying with only one aspect of your […]
Encouragement For Today
Jan 28
I wrote the post for this series last Thursday, yet I can’t bring myself to publish it. It’s finished, sitting there in my drafts. But the longer I blog, the more convinced I am that I’m responsible for every word that comes out of this space. And so I weigh things heavily. I filter them […]

Exploring Who We Are
Jan 23
It’s a new year for change and growth. There’s no going around it, we’re either changing and growing… or not. It’s easy to fall into the “empty hand” trap. You know, the ‘I don’t have a seed to sow so I’ll just hang around and do nothing’ trap. Here’s the thing. Harvest time will come. Whether […]

Yesterday we talked about how we’re either changing and growing…or we’re not. I’m hoping to explore that further with you. Reality though, is that sometimes we can’t even get to the exploration part because there are issues that keep us stuck. If we don’t address them, they simply trap us in place. Stagnation is inevitable. One […]
Changing and Growing… Or Not

Children grow. This is easily noticeable. Try having them put on last year’s jeans. Usually, they’re too small, too tight, too short. The days go by and we can measure them up against the fireplace. Hmm. Just last summer they couldn’t reach the mantle. It was the perfect hiding spot. But today, they reach. Nothing is […]
I’ll Be Gone For a Few Days…
Jan 9
This will be a very short update as I’m having trouble typing with one hand. While cutting some sweet potatoes yesterday the knife slipped and I cut my finger deep enough to have to run to the hospital for 7 stitches. My finger is swollen and I’m in a bit of pain. It’s my index finger […]
