I, I, AND MORE I!!! –God got me up in the middle of the night to write this one…  “Maybe I should walk you through the process of changing your password, then you need to write it down somewhere safe so you will know it next time.” ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? I’ve worked with computersContinue reading “I, I, AND MORE I!!!”

ON THE PORCH WE RAN…HE RAN Benny and I like to walk down our dirt road.  When we do, the dogs roam the fields alongside us.  One evening last spring we all went for a walk, and Benny and I got to talking and we weren’t paying attention to the dogs.  They know how far aheadContinue reading “WE RAN…HE RAN”

ON THE PORCH SNEAK ATTACK 7:07 a.m. Ordinary Wednesday morning **The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life and have it to the full. John 10:10 I sat waiting… expectantly, inside the house where he could not see me. Benny wasn’t traveling the path heContinue reading “SNEAK ATTACK”

ON THE PORCH PLEASEDONTSEEME When Benny and I got to church early yesterday morning, there was a bunny in the u-shaped yard.  Since we got a little rain a couple weeks ago, we had grass she could nibble, and she was enjoying the cool of the morning before the blow dryer heat hit.  She wasContinue reading “PLEASEDONTSEEME”

WRITTEN 6/4/22 “PUSH THE BRAKE!  PUSH THE BRAKE!!”  Benny’s holler got my adrenaline pumping and I raced to the tractor.  Instead of hitting the brake, though, I panicked and pressed the accelerator as far as it would go.  The tractor not only forcefully ran into the dumpster, but it pushed the whole dumpster over.  Benny wasContinue reading “ALMOST AN AMPUTATION”

JUNE 2, 2022 ON THE PORCH TINK OR RIBBIT? **Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.  Proverbs 4:23 When my brothers and I were small, we bounced around our first few years.  When we left the children’s home, the boys went with my mom and her new husband, andContinue reading “TINK OR RIBBIT??”

ON THE PORCH LIFTED HANDS **“Let us lift up our hearts and hands to God in heaven.” Lamentations 3:41 (Written 5.23.22)  This morning when I opened my computer to start typing, God exposed a place in my heart I’ve been hiding.  He asked to see my hands.  “What for?”  “What were your hands made for?” Continue reading “LIFTED HANDS”

ON THE PORCH “THAT’S POO!!” “THAT’S NOT JUST GAS, THAT’S POO!!” Tuesday night during the wind and rain, Ace, Sierra’s dog started whining softly and put his head in my lap.  Having been through the storm the night before, I thought he was anxious about the coming weather.  So, I patted his head and toldContinue reading ““THAT’S POO!””

When Noah was 12 or 13 years old, I looked out the front door and caught him with binoculars pointed at the dirt road.  First, I took a picture (because things like this were typical with Noah).  Then I asked what he was doing.   “They’re spying on us, so I am spying on them.”  PlainContinue reading “SEND IN THE SPIES”
