Though He slay me, yet I can trustfully wait for Him. Though He slay my pride, my freedom, provison, fruit, hope…yet I can continue walking in His ways. Why? Because Resurrection is on His way. Like a felled tree that revives at the scent of water, we will revive at the arrival of Living Water….

Abide With Me
Life has not ceased to bring its share of busy times, of worry, uncertainty for the future, nor to be filled with the little blessings, the glimpses of His love and care. Just the other evening, as I sat at the piano, playing and singing the different songs that came to mind, this song came…
Project Rescue
Note: This post contains some details that may not be suitable for younger readers. My first introduction to Project Rescue came in picking up the book Beyond the Soiled Curtain (unfortunately already out of print) at a thrift shop in the Ozarks. Before I had time to begin reading I googled “Project Rescue” and read…
Ashleigh: The Wife of a Deployed Soldier
Ashleigh wrote a sweet post over at Rocks In My Dryer I wanted to point you all to: What I’d Like for You to Know
any better, folks?
Oops, I found the problem. I’ll blame the fact that it took me so long to notice my inadvertant coding error on my “fast internet connection,” how’s that? Hopefully I’ve got it fixed! Does it load better now? Sorry for the technical difficulties. If you have Internet Explorer, you still may not be able to…
Fiction for a Midsummer’s Day
Early spring days at our little family antique store can be a bit slow, lending themselves to rearranging the displays, dusting the tables, and reading some good old books. (It would really be unpardonable to read a new book behind the counter of an antique store, would it not?) Three of them stood out as…
Be Still
It had been “one of those” mornings. It was the middle of December–Christmastime. Things were crazy. Everything from the past two months seemed to have hit me that day–my newborn, my husband’s surgery, a trip to Colorado, Christmas preparations, and a deployment date looming in the near future. This particular day was filled with a…
help us describe YLCF!
We tried it once before. But this time we want you to describe the YLCF in twenty-five words or less. We’re looking for a sentence to appear below the welcome message (where it currently says “the place for ladies young and old to find encouragement and edification”). Please comment with your suggestions! And while you’re…
Living as a Witness
This involves “just you, winning one person to the Lord each year, training that person to live a victorious, reproductive Christian life—then the two of you doing the same with two more people the next year. Continuing in this activated, applying the principle of multiplication, your numbers would double each year thereafter…you and the people…
Job 8-11
Job 8-11: Figure Heaven In To do my math correctly, I must take the “eternal weight of glory” into account along with this “light, momentary affliction.” The wrong sum: “Life is short, so eat, drink, and be merry.” The correct sum: “Only one life, ’twill soon be past. Only what’s done for Christ will last.”…
