In Living Color

The Internet has brought information to our fingertips. In many ways, it has made me more independent. I can access information in my nightgown! Our social norms have even changed. My best guy friend has fallen in love with a woman he met on Yahoo. Is the internet the new Love Connection? Not for... Sign in to see full entry.

War of Words Over Cruise Site

The ower of a Tom Cruise -skewering Website that came under scrutiny from the Church of Scientology for its too-close-for-comfort URL has agreed to change the Web address. "He said he would change it, so, we're waiting for him to do that," Helena Kobrin, an attorney representing the Church of... Sign in to see full entry.

When It Comes To Men

My friend is wonderful. We went out yesterday and had a great time. However, when it comes to men, we have very different values. She has raised her girls to believe that it is acceptable to manipulate a man into supporting them. Her belief is that if a man can’t support and care for her and her... Sign in to see full entry.

Loving Care

What a beautiful, bright, sunny day! The Redskins lost on Sunday, but I am excited and very thankful. I might be starting a job in two weeks! The Lord always loves and cares for me so wonderfully, even though I don’t deserve His goodness. My Heavenly Father gives me such loving care. Thanks for... Sign in to see full entry.

Is It Safe To Leave Blogit Ark?

What a beautiful day! The rain has stopped. Is it safe to leave Blogit ark now where you are? We hadn’t seen the wonderful Heavenly sunshine for eight rainy days until today.

Another's Treasure

It’s still raining. I am so glad its Friday! We are busily getting ready for our yard sale tomorrow. One man’s junk is another’s treasure. I am sick with bronchitis, so Kleenex and medicine are treasures to me right now. All those who had to evacuate due to flooding or hurricanes are in my prayers.... Sign in to see full entry.

Turning The Other Cheek

It’s raining today. My experience with one of my learners was surprising yesterday. He was disrespectful and very hurtful, so I quit. To me, there is a balance between turning the other cheek and preserving my self-respect. This wasn’t the first time J hurt me, but it will be the last. Thanks for... Sign in to see full entry.

I Am Weak

It’s a wonderful, wet Wednesday. Today’s quiet time message was so encouraging. I am weak, but the Lord is strong. I know that apart from the Lord, I can do nothing. He has taken my life so many places. The Lord gets all the credit. I am also so thankful for my wonderful supportive family. Thanks... Sign in to see full entry.

Just The Way You Are

I am having a terrific weekend. The message at church today really hit home. It reminded me of how important it is to share Jesus with others. This world claims to have quick fixes for everything and makes a bunch of promises it never keeps. God loves this world very much. So much that He sent His... Sign in to see full entry.

Soaking Sabado

My weekend has been great. Last night, I went down to my brother Blaine’s college. Mom told funny stories about him to the three hundred kids in attendance at the Intervarsity Bible study. We had a wonderful time. It was terrific visiting with him and stepping into his world. My job interview... Sign in to see full entry.
