Sprinkle

Just some early morning thoughts from me to you…

 

”Children are who they are.  It doesn’t take long before we have convinced them that they are what they wear, or what they do, or what they have, or what they look like.  But, if our children are lucky, we convince them early on to resist caricature or illusion.” 

                                                            Dangerous Wonder, Micheal Yaconelli

 

There’s a cold wind blowing through the area this morning that even our Basset Hound Lily was anxious to escape after her first quick trip outside for the day.  (more…)

Live It All

Just some early morning thoughts from me to you…

 

“Everything in the world is about to be wrapped up, so take nothing for granted…Most of all, love each other as if your life depended on it.” 

1 Peter 4: 7, 8 (The Message)

What’s Next?

Just some early morning thoughts from me to you…

 

“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?  Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?…

For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” 

Romans 8: 35-39 (NKJV)

 

“What’s next?”  It seems like an obvious question as we move into the New Year. (more…)

Beware of Snow Cats!

Just some early morning thoughts from me to you…

 

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”  Philippians 4:13 (NKJV)

 

The signs said:  “Beware of Snow Cats.”  And after a ride up the mountain, a measure of courage was added to my life that day. (more…)
