  • We Don’t All Get the Miracle (for my friend who is facing death)
    Posted on Wednesday, July 6th, 2016 | Filed under Blog | Tagged: cancer, death, facing death, ISIS, kidnapped, lung cancer, no miracle coming, praying for a miracle, suffering, terrorism, trafficked, when a loved one is dying, when Christians die young, where is God?, where is my miracle

    We don’t all get the miracle. We know this. We know, because we’ve lived on this planet, that not every prayer is answered the way we want, that not every Christian lives a rosy existence this side of glory, that some of us die young despite every intercession. It doesn’t sit well, though, does it? …[ read more ]

  • When It Feels Like Death is Winning
    Posted on Monday, January 18th, 2016 | Filed under Blog | Tagged: #Dstrong, Abraham Martin and John, Burkina Faso, death, death is defeated, Dorian Murray, Jesus lives, letter to death, living for Jesus, love reigns, love wins, Martin Luther King Day, what happens when we die

    Death, you bloody, cruel, heartless, thief, I see you everywhere these days. Crouching in wait, you pounce suddenly on some, stealing them from us before we can turn our heads for one last look at their beautiful smiles, their precious eyes, their gentle hands. Stalking others, invading from within by relentless disease that drains them …[ read more ]

    Posted on Saturday, February 13th, 2010 | Filed under Blog | Tagged: competitors, death, former glory, gold medals, human worship, Olympic Games, tower of Babel, Winter Olympics 2010

    Watching the opening ceremonies of the Winter Olympics, it’s easy for me to see why we humans are tempted to worship ourselves. The artistry and physical prowess on display were breathtaking. The technology of lights and illusions combined with the grace and physique of performers, the angelic voices of singers, the words of poets and …[ read more ]

  • The Light Shines in the Darkness
    Posted on Friday, December 25th, 2009 | Filed under Blog | Tagged: darkness, death, deception, John 14, light, Prepare Ye the Way of the Lord, the life, the plan of salvation, truth

    Father? Yes, my child? This is a very dark place that you have sent me. Yes, I know. You are the Light. The people here are lost. Yes, I know. You are the Way. They believe lies about you. I know. You are the Truth. There is the stench of death all around. You are …[ read more ]

  • Surviving Those We Lose
    Posted on Monday, June 22nd, 2009 | Filed under Blog | Tagged: death, heaven, surviving loss

    I’ve been thinking about the Apostle John. He’s my favorite Biblical writer. His style, his way with words, the themes on which he focuses resonate with my spirit. But lately I’ve been thinking about the fact that he probably lived into his nineties. Whereas, according to tradition, we believe most of the other disciples were …[ read more ]

    Lori, Our Lord never ceases to amaze.. you have succeeded in disturbing this Hobbit! I have been struggling with spiritual apathy and indifference recently and reading your witty, convicting, engaging, infuriating writings has helped me to realize that I am in good company. They have also given me the kick-start I need to get off my laurels! Keep looking up..keep going on for the Lord dear sister-in-Christ!
