As the World Turns…LOLOLO! 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord, Jesus Christ. He is the God of all compassion and the God of all comfort. He comforts us in all of our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble, with the comfort that we have received from God. Nov. 11.2019…. one day before my 70th birthday…. I awakened with horrible, nauseous vertigo. It is caused by crystals in your inner ear getting out of sync. I knew what I was in for throughout the day…
Wisdom In The Stillness Of Morning Psalm 46: 10 Be still and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth. Psalm 37: 7 Be still in the presence of The Lord and wait patiently for Him to act. Don’t worry about evil people who prosper or fret about their evil schemes. It’s 4:30 a.m. Every Monday and Thursday mornings, my husband and I are “Up and at Em!” No! Not milking or teaching: we are morning transportation for twin 6 yr. old grandsons. Last Thursday…
California Passes A Law To Allow Students To Not Only Miss School To Protest, But Also Limits Disciplinary Actions. Romans 8:38-39 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all create, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus Our Lord. Proverbs 29:17 Discipline your son, and he will give you peace; he will bring delight to your soul. OMG…THIS TEACHER IS FREAKING OUT! YES! I…
Psalm 1:1-3 Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, or stand in the way of sinners, or sit in the seat of mockers. But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and he meditates upon it day and night.He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season, and whose does not wither. Whatever he does, prospers. TEACHING IS NOT A JOB…IT IS A MINISTRY! If you don’t believe this, and are just putting in the years, then you need…
1 Thessalonians 5: 16-18 Be joyful always; Pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:8 And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing; fix your thoughts on what is true and honorable, right, pure, lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. Choose joy! No matter what you are going through. Choose to make this year one of positive thoughts, prayers, and actions. Choose to be led by The Holy Spirit. You can sit around and worry, fret, and concentrate…
The Magi.. Three Astronomers Matthew 2:1-6 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came and asked, “Where is the one who has been born King of the Jews?” We saw his star in the east and have come to worship him. King Herod was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with them. It is written: “But you Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah: for out of you will come a ruler who will be shepherd to my…
The Calm Before The Storm It wasn’t a storm as such….but a rush of The Angelic Heavenly Host. It was a chilly night in the countryside near Bethlehem. There was a full moon, which shone so brightly, the surroundings seemed as if it weremidday. Jacob and Joshua, two shepherds were out in the fields, overseeing the herd of sheep. Jacob spoke. “There is a strangeness about this night. It is eerie, and there is no wind. Joshua, it’s as if I can’t breathe, and my spirit is restless.” “Yes, brother,” Joshua answered. “I feel it as…
Mary Did You Know? The Birth of Jesus Foretold Luke 1:26-38 In the 6 th month, God sent the Angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee, to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.” Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be. “Do not be afraid, Mary. You have found favor with God. You will be with…
Clearing Out The Clutter In Our Hearts John 1:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt amongst us, and we have seen His glory; glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. THE WORD INCARNATE… THE WORD BECAME FLESH….. JESUS CHRIST, OUR SAVIOR. RELIGION BRINGS CLUTTER. RELATIONSHIP WITH CHRIST BRINGS FREEDOM. Wow!! With the strict rules of Catholicism in the 50’s and 60’s…
What A Flood! Psalm 56:8 You have seen me tossing and turning through the night. You have collected all of my tears in a bottle! You have recorded every one of them in your book. HOW COULD SHE DO THAT TO ME? She even called my best friend to get her on her side of the issue. I felt like Jesus with the money- changers in the temple. I had to walk away and cool down. I had to tell her, ”I’m hanging up until you get ahold of your emotions.” Really, I hung up because I didn…
It Opened My Eyes And I Ceased Striving 2 Corinthians 3:3 Clearly you are an epistle of Christ, ministered by us, written not with ink but by the Spirit of The Living God, not on tablets of stone, but on tablets of flesh, that is of the heart. Linda Grace Raber, my high school football cohort: GIRLFRIEND YOU ARE THE BEST! That is a statement that we say to one another, from the heart. Years ago, we both struggled with our marriages. My marriage made a 360 and we have never been better. We both had baggage to melt…

PART 2 The Catholic Fressing: May 17,2003 And Other Zanies For your info: Dutch interpretation: The word Fressing means pigging out, or eating way too much. The word goxing means gossiping or playfully speaking. Before Vatican II, Catholicism was filled with rules. We didn’t eat meat on Fridays. I’m Bored!!!!! Living in a household of all men, can make the single woman feel unappreciated and often CRA!CRA!! When there’s a family vote over any issue, I usually lose…talk about feeling invisible! It’s mid May, all of the crops should be planted by now…
PART 1 God Created A Monster: Halloween 2002 Prequil: My Best Friend….Linda Grace….. for years we dealt with workaholic husbands. My husband milked cows for 43 years, caring for his family and building a Century Farm. Gracie’s husband worked late hours at Honda. It’s a necessity of life for all women to have friends they can rely upon. Women need other women. The best way to stop feeling sorry for yourself, is to get a friend and become creative….. AND SO WE DID! Purple and pink wings, green antennae, six legs, and a tiny red body with…
Happy Halloween! Luke 12:25-26 Who by worrying can add a single hour to his life? Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest? I LOVE THE FALL: Halloween, harvest, colored leaves, chili, vegetable soup, pumpkin pie, Football Friday Night, cool, crisp sunny days, holidays on the way, Hallmark Xmas Movies begin. Fall decorations give a boost to my soul, with the sight of the holidays in the near future. How did Halloween originate? Before the medieval days, it was celebrated as All Hallows Eve. On the night before All Saints Day…
