I Can Just Hear The Pounding

Even though he's my Son, "He's done gone from preaching to meddling." That's what they used to say when the pastor began pounding the pulpit. I doubt if he pounds, but he does have a loud voice that gets even louder when he is making a point. Dan Stone - Praying the Sermon On The Mount - Day 15... Sign in to see full entry.

Upside-down Thinking

I wonder how often in my lifetime I have been concerned because I have something against another person, as opposed to being concerned because someone else may have something against me. Are there times when I have offended and never made amends, preferring to hold a grudge, and even trying to... Sign in to see full entry.

Murder In Our World

My preacher son and I don't always agree on everything. Actually, not one of my sons and I agree on everything. That's what makes life so interesting. We are individuals that think for ourselves, make our own decisions, speak our piece at times, sometimes harshly, sometimes quick to anger, but also... Sign in to see full entry.

Break One You're Dead

The Ten Commandments. There has never been anything else quite like them. Teaching them is fairly simple, doing them impossible, and keeping the first one is the most impossible of all. It is a good thing God's mercy is involved in this. Dan Stone - Praying the Sermon On The Mount - Day 12 Jesus... Sign in to see full entry.

A Lamp In A Dark World

There's a little light in all of us by God's design but you can't be a beacon if your light don't shine. Dan Stone - Praying the Sermon On The Mount - Day 11 “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand,... Sign in to see full entry.

I Love Salty Crunchy

The other day I saw a TV video of two different tele-evangelists who were explaining to each other and to anyone watching, why they had to have their own personal, private jets. For some reason it left a bad taste in my mouth. Slick and smooth just "ain't" my style. Dan Stone - Praying the Sermon On... Sign in to see full entry.

Struggling With The Truth

My personality is entirely up to me. It is in the actions I take and the decisions I make. Either I am a patient person, or not; a responsible person or not, a person who lies easily or one who is honest. The only way to change my personality is to take active steps to become the person I want to... Sign in to see full entry.

Jesus Wept

Before I share the following with you, I must admit that, as far as I can remember, never in my whole life have I felt as if I were being persecuted...not for being a Christian, not for refusing to follow the crowd as a teen, not for going to church, not for my beliefs. I know that is not so for... Sign in to see full entry.

What Is Peace?

When my sons were little (the fourth one was born before the first one turned 5), keeping peace amongst them turned into quite a job for Mom. My favorite way to restore peace, when they were preschoolers, was to separate them, put each one in a different place, and give them a book to read. As they... Sign in to see full entry.

Number Six

Way back when, I thought I wanted six sons--my husband wanted one son and one daughter. We were so happy when our first child was a son. When our second son was born, I was very happy--my husband was a bit disappointed though he tried to hide it. He wanted a daughter so badly that he was not unhappy... Sign in to see full entry.
