Complete Kate outdid herself today. The word. The image. This word can go nowhere except to the spiritual things of life, for me. Complete. Who? What? Has the power to complete? God, the Creator of the Universe and all living things, including people, has the power to complete. But may the God of all grace,… [Read More]

Five Minute Friday: CROWD
Kate said, “CROWD.” Great word – love ’em or hate ’em? My friend Kitty draws energy from people. If she is alone too much? She feels lethargic and almost depressed. So, when that happens she goes out into public, not necessarily a big crowd but somewhere people are. Crowds deplete me. It’s as though someone… [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: RUSH
Kate said, “RUSH.” The image immediately brought back memories of Havana, Cuba, April 1999. I had the privilege and blessing of going on a ten-day medical mission trip to deliver basic medical needs to a church there. While there, I also delivered a much-needed gently used wheelchair to my daughter’s-in-love grandma. My daughter-in-love, and her… [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: LOYAL (again)
Kate said ‘loyal’ again – she handed us this word prompt on August 26, 2016 – almost two years ago to the day! I find that rather interesting. I wrote about it here. Everything in that post remains except our beloved loyal furry friend Sam. He went to heaven one month ago, suddenly, on July… [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: LOVED
LOVED This week was a lesson in *thinking* of being UNloved. One of the worst feelings in the whole wide world. UN loved = U not loved Awful. I hate when “feelings” get in the way of truth. Truth trumps feelings.every.single.day.every.single.time. God’s Word tells us that Perfect Love Casts Out All Fear. Where does the… [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: WOMAN
Just yesterday morning this word was spoken out of my mouth in positive fashion. Hubs didn’t walk with me so I did an in-town 30 minute brisk walk. Now that we live downtown, in a second floor flat, I walk with a lanyard-type necklace with our key attached, the car key is on there too…. [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: anniversary
Kate said, “Anniversary.” Seems a strange word to write a five-minute essay on, doesn’t it? Unless you’re having one. anniversary, that is. There are anniversaries of all sorts of things. Happy things. Sad things. Silly things. Spiritual things. I remember dates. Therefore, I have a lot of “anniversaries” floating in my internal computer. Even a… [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: DONE!
I haven’t participated in Five Minute Friday in weeks – I haven’t even peeked into the Twitter party or the Facebook group page – we have been very, very busy moving. This morning I stalked Kate and saw that she said, “Done,” last night. NOW, this word I can relate to… Stick a fork in… [Read More]
