Two words in Thessalonians are almost haunting. constantly pray, i thessalonians 5:17, NET Especially when the news is bad. Single car accident. Paralyzed from the neck down. Stenosis of the neck. Another UTI. Grief at the loss of a young daughter. Another mass shooting. Immigrants detained. Constantly pray. Pray without ceasing. Do. Not. Ever. Stop.…

Today, I’m thinking a lot about caregivers and how grateful we should be for them. Over the past several years, I’ve found myself in situations where I need to care for the adults in my life. It’s not always pretty. Case in point last night my mom ran fever so high that when it broke,…

Retail means to sell in small quantities directly to the ultimate consumer. Today, I went to Target. I haven’t been in a long time and I was on the other side of town, so why not. I needed a cupcake carrier and a sweatshirt. About $100 later, Keck and I exited the store. Some of…

I love hymns. But I’m too lazy on Sundays to go to a worship service that includes them. Instead it’s all praise and worship music. That’s okay, but those songs are repetitive, sometimes seem a little less than theologically sound (I’m still convinced God’s love for us isn’t reckless), and don’t really connect you to…

Literally to feel again. That’s me today. I looked up words that mean to feel at a loss again. Which is and was what I was feeling tonight when it came time to write this post. I thought Urban Dictionary could help me out, but it wasn’t meh, I was feeling. I’m not indifferent about…
Read MoreAfter the tornado last night, there are a few agains I wish to never hear of, well, again. These are some of those agains especially after a monstrous storm. I counted at least 4 churches, one organic nursery, a Home Depot, and fire station ripped to pieces. Dozens more homes destroyed in blink. I haven’t…

Today, was a revelation. Keck has been talking about N.E.A.T. when it comes to exercise. He kept saying it in relation to working out. I’m struggling with getting to the gym and I keep wanting to cook us better meals and make sure we have good healthy options. After all adulting is really all about…

I use this word today in the literal sense. There was this old print in my grandmother’s things that didn’t seem like much. It’s old black frame was falling apart, and the piece of cardboard on the back told the story. From Mary Macedonia (Massey) Nelson from a carnival in 1956. The quaint little house…
