In Everything Give Thanks

In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.  I Thessalonians 5:18 With Thanksgiving just about a month away, I thought this was a great time to take part in the blog project at Faithful Bloggers.  This project is centered on “in everything give thanks.” There are always [...]

Courageous Movie and a Lesson

Yesterday, my husband and I went to see the “Courageous” movie.  It’s another one in the line of movies written and directed by Alex and Stephen Kendrick. You can see as the movies go along that they get more professional and sophisticated.  At times, the acting still seems amateurish but it has definitely improved. However, [...]

Work is Necessary and Good

“In all labor there is profit.”  Prov. 14:23 I have been asked several times what kind of business can be started that doesn’t take too much time or money to get started.   It kind of leaves me wondering “why?”  Why don’t people want to work? We are told in the above verse that we profit [...]

A Free Directory

I thought it would be fun to do another “Freebie Friday.”  Today, it’s a directory put out by The Old Schoolhouse.  If you aren’t familiar with them, they are a homeschooling resource – they have a print magazine, a website, a store and lots of helps for homeschoolers. Even if you aren’t a homeschooler, don’t [...]

Do You Need To Change Something?

I had to write today about a topic that was mentioned yesterday in the sermon at church.   The speaker talked about living our purpose and being effective in it. If we are not being effective in our purpose, then we need to change something.  It might be to take a different direction; it might be [...]
