WWJD—What would Jesus do? What a wonderful mantra. (By the way, that word ‘mantra’ means: in Hindu and Buddhist religious practice, a sacred word, chant, or sound that is repeated during meditation to facilitate spiritual power and transformation of consciousness. Somehow, it doesn’t seem fitting to use it in reference to Jesus Christ!) HOWEVER, the … More Just a Little Talk About Jesus
I’ve recently added two pages to my blog, and I thought I’d give you a “heads-up” concerning them! I’ve really enjoyed writing the short stories on characters in the Bible. You’ll find them under “Short Stories” above. (I hope I’m not insulting your intelligence, but at times I can’t find my way around my own … More Two New Pages
What makes the perfect seashell? Last week I enjoyed a morning stroll on the beach. Usually, that’s my husband’s routine; however, since his fall in March, long walks are still a trial. This vacation was a step into the unknown: How much would he be able to walk or enjoy the beach? Certainly, life has … More The Perfect Shell, or Finally Home!

And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full. And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish? And he arose, and rebuked … More Hang on!!
What would you do if you were king or queen for a day? This was the question which was posed to us in Sunday School as we study Ecclesiastes. Wow! The answers are endless! My first thought was political: I’d outlaw abortion forever! Or I’d pay off our country’s multi-trillion dollar debt! (seventeen to be exact and … More King for a Day
As we headed to the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon with our evangelist friends, I was once again reminded of another visit there.
