    Posted on Wednesday, June 1st, 2016 | Filed under Blog | Tagged: Adam, blogging, envy, Eve, failing, freedom, greed, hiding from God, Jesus, mountain top, original sin, shrubbery, sin, sin nature, spotlight

    Did you ever act like Adam? Find yourself hiding like great-grandma Eve? Probably not. Maybe I’m the only one. Recently, I felt like something for five minutes. You know, I felt my potential. Glimpsed my worth. Then, I read another woman’s blog and it was brilliant. God’s going to use her, not me. That was …[ read more ]

  • We’ll Start Seeing More Miracles When . . .

    It had been a long time since he’d seen a miracle. You could just tell. It was the way he held back. Placed his cards on the table slowly – studying you through narrowed eyes between each reveal. Gauging your reaction to his story. Like a game of chicken, you kept the cards coming by …[ read more ]

  • A Brush with Death
    Posted on Thursday, December 10th, 2015 | Filed under Blog | Tagged: artistic living, Christmas, Jesus, John 15, piano guys, Samaritan woman, We Three Kings, woman at the well

    A brush with death creates fear. A brush with celebrity create exhilaration. A brush with greatness leads to inspiration. What is the result of a brush with you?   Have you ever brushed up against a wall of wet paint? A glittery store display? A furry white dog? A tinseled tree? When you walk away, …[ 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!
