IN REMEMBRANCE OF ALL OF THIS
We will remember. It’s been 25 years. It’s been a while, yet I still remember every moment of that day like it was yesterday. I remember I turned 40 on that day, September 11, 2001. Yeah, yeah, do the math. I signed up for Medicare this year. That was fun. But back to the remembering. … Continue reading IN REMEMBRANCE OF ALL OF THIS
THE DRIFT – IT’S CALLED A SLOW FADE
One of mine and Samuel’s favorite shows to watch together is Pixar’s “Tokyo Mater.” Samuel is my two year old grandson and we love “Mater’s Tall Tales.” My favorite part is when Mater loses control and starts to just slide as he hits a patch of oil. He proudly exclaims, “Look at me I’m drifting!” … Continue reading THE DRIFT – IT’S CALLED A SLOW FADE

TO KAVANNAH OR NOT TO KAVANNAH
No, I am not talking about Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh. I’ve learned a new Hebrew practice on my pilgrimage with Jesus this summer. Well actually it is an ancient Jewish practice it is just new to me. It’s the practice of “Kavannah,” and it is a deep intentional prayer. Too often in my life I … Continue reading TO KAVANNAH OR NOT TO KAVANNAH
THE JUXTAPOSITION
An old wood gate stands partway open, beckoning anyone who notices to enter. But do we? Dare we enter? Who knows what lies beyond? Jesus taught: ““Enter through the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the road is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who go through it. How narrow … Continue reading THE JUXTAPOSITION

MEANDER – walk or travel slowly and leisurely
Have you seen the Instagram meme - The wife is driving and the husband is giving directions, “turn north at the next intersection,” and the wife’s cheeky response, “Listen Christopher Columbus, do I turn at Taco Bell or do I head toward Target?” Yaaaaaaaaas! I identify. That meme was on a constant loop through my … Continue reading MEANDER – walk or travel slowly and leisurely
LET GRATITUDE BE MY DEFAULT SETTING
What is your go to move when technology fails you? I have a love hate relationship with all my smart technology. And by the way, who determined to call these devices smart? Smart TV, Smart IPhone, you get my drift. Sometimes they are not smart at all. And I refuse to think they are smarter … Continue reading LET GRATITUDE BE MY DEFAULT SETTING
Shalom
As I have written before, I am on a quest this summer. I am focusing on my health, but what I am learning, health is more than physical health. It is more than making sure I get my six servings of fruits and vegetables, all my grains, all my proteins, all my dairy products or … Continue reading Shalom
