I don´t know why or how but I do know that it has been a long journey since my last writing in August of last year. I have been through the valleys and in the high places and I know God has been with me every step of the way along with some great Christian sisters. I have gone through many changes, as a butterfly does. My relationship with Jesus has deepened and still has more room for growth. I a ... Read Christian Column

Reflections - Love That's Returned to Sender

Posted Tuesday, May 11, 2010

I wish I could sit with you and we could talk about love. No, not about the kind that makes a woman's heart swell. Not the kind a mother has for her child, or the kind a husband has for his wife--but the kind of love that isn't returned. I wish we could chat because I'm certain you could tell me a story about a time when you gave your love away and it came back, like an unopened letter marked "ret ... Read Christian Column

Every woman fears that her greatest anxieties will become reality; that somehow things like her hair always being bushy, constantly having PMS, or gaining three-hundred pounds will happen. Sometimes she even battles these fears in her dreams, which is why one night while I slept, I dreamt I was being chased down a long, narrow hallway by a giant chocolate donut which screamed, "Eat me! Eat me!" Ap ... Read Christian Column

Have you ever wondered why God sometimes seems inconsistent in compassion and love? Why He answers the prayer of a little girl for a puppy, but denies the request of a man to be healed from cancer? Why He allows school shootings, AIDS and terrorist attacks, but gives a man a new job when he asks? If we consider the woes of humanity long enough and believe the lies that God is involved here (but ... Read Christian Column

The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. - Luke 6:45 NIV Oh, the joy of getting older! Most of the time, I credit standard aches and pains with aging. Lately though I've had a pain in my side that won't go away. Off to the doctor I go where I receive what seems to be the standard answer, " ... Read Christian Column

There once was a man who netted three trout from a mountain stream and carefully placed them side by side on a thin slice of grass. Before he removed them from the water, they were like liquid ballet in motion. Fluid. Graceful. Vibrant. Alive. After he netted them, it was another story. As the trout lay on the grass, they were motionless. Their eyes were fixed. They gasped for air, and the ... Read Christian Column

What Kind of Love Is That? by Shana Schutte I couldn't sleep last night because something I read online hit me hard before I hit the pillow. So when I should have been getting my beauty sleep, I was thinking about love instead. Around 9 p.m., I visited a blog written by a man named Tom who lost his wife just a few short months ago to breast cancer. As part of his journey through grief, he' ... Read Christian Column

When I was seven, my older sister and I heard that a circus was coming to our little Southern Idaho town. We couldn't wait. When the big day arrived, we walked to the high school football field a half mile away, found a seat high on the bleachers, and waited for the show to start. I don't remember anything about the circus--except for one terrifying incident. Part way through the show, the ani ... Read Christian Column

Are you so foolish? After beginning with the Spirit, are you now trying to attain your goal by human effort? - Galatians 3:3 NIV When New Year's Day comes, will you have a list of resolutions? This morning when you started your day, did you have an agenda? Many people, at least the more organized ones, begin by consulting a ‘to do’ list. In our society, being goal-oriented is viewed as a good a ... Read Christian Column
