Abortion

Making the Choice

Making the Choice

Making the Choice Last week here on the main page I shared about “almost” having an abortion in 1977. Thank you for the generous and kind comments. I know there are some whose almost was “I did,” and today I’m sharing two stories of adoption and counsel from a former Pregnancy Care Center Director. I… [Read More]

Abortion – I (almost) had one

I (almost) had an abortion

Abortion, Dates, and Choices On January 22nd, 1973 the Supreme Court of the United States, Roe vs. Wade decision which legalized abortion, was made law. On January 19th, 1977 it snowed in South Florida. On March 10th, 1977 I became pregnant with my third child. April 1977 Only my obstetrician knew my thoughts at the… [Read More]

it’s all good – or, is it?

Isaiah 5.20 Funny how sayings get started and then suddenly everyone is using them. You hear them on talk shows, late night entertainers say them – they become part of the culture (almost). No big deal. Livin’ the dream. Not to worry. It is what it is. Deal with it. Build a bridge. Get over… [Read More]

corporate confession

July 15, 2015 by admin 20 Comments

Hosea 14.1-3 I thought I was shock-proof but yesterday proved me wrong. I watched a newscast last night showing a Planned Parenthood executive eating lunch and talking about selling organs and body parts from aborted babies as though she was discussing the price of tomatoes on the open market. I almost gagged. Then, as it settled,… [Read More]

hope for the unborn

  Many years ago while at a Writers Conference in Asheville NC, I sat in a workshop on jewelry/greeting card design and as my creative wheels were turning I doodled the design you see in the picture. During that season in my life, I served on the Board of Directors of our local Pregnancy Care… [Read More]

Rushing is the one thing I did not want to do in this tiny house move. Rushing only brings negative results, in my humble opinion. I’ve also learned that rushing can be miles outside God’s good, acceptable, and perfect plan for our life.

Slow and steady wins the race – unless you’re an Olympic runner. And, most of us aren’t.

Is God into rushing?

I think not. I mean, after all, He is God and outside of time – He is behind the scenes YET, is the Center of it.

He is orchestrating every finite detail of my life, without rush. On the days I cry out to Him, “Com’on already Lord just do it!” He takes the slow and steady.

And then suddenly!

The day is here. The thing has happened. The life was changed. With no rush.

Days, months, maybe years of praying and believing – and then bam, it’s here.

Enjoy the process…

I want to take the time to enjoy the process. The thinking. The planning. The working. And, then sit back and enjoy the results. That’s how I work and at times I think that’s how our good, good Father works.

I want to enjoy the journey. I want to enjoy the hunt!

How about you? Turtle or rabbit?
