Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands. Proverbs 14:1 I am very aware that not everyone is going to relate to what I have to say about mother-in-laws. You haven’t found the blessing in yours, she is hard to find the blessing in, or you haven’t met her yet. Either way, good luck to each of you on the journey to finding your mother-in-law as a blessi ... Read Christian Article

Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints. Psalms 116:15 KJV I stared out the big bay window of our old farm house anxiously waiting for my father to come home. It was pretty common knowledge around our house that I was a Daddy’s girl. Daddy said that he was “addicted” to me the first time he held me in his arms. He joked frequently about how the moment he knew I was “all his ... Read Christian Article

Grandma Eleanor was the stabilizing force in my life for as long as I can remember. Her wisdom and common sense echoed in the depths of my soul, long after she passed away. After her death, it seemed the grief would come in waves, and cast shades of suffocating bereavement throughout my day. I would always find comfort in the Scriptures and consolation in the old hymns about Heaven. But one day as ... Read Christian Article

“Ror-a,” he firmly repeated, as his mother told him her name. “Au – rora, try again.” “Rora, Rora, what a funny name,” he thought. How did this stupid, noisy baby come to be living here anyway?

This week I came face-to-face with a genuine dilemma. I had several meetings across town and for some reason I miscalculated and ended up with a 2-1/2 hour gap between meetings. I hate to waste time, but if I drove back to my office, I would simply have to return to my meeting later and with the cost of gas these days, one cannot be too cautious. You know gas is getting high when it costs more ... Read Christian Article

I got an e-mail from a friend, its content riddled with errors. These weren’t small mistakes, but glaring oversights. A few moments later, I received a second message apologizing for the first e-mail. “Please forgive me. I must be suffering from New Mother Syndrome. All I can think of is the baby.” What mother hasn’t felt that way when she brings home a newborn? What is this syndrome, and how ... Read Christian Article
