Guest Posting at Jaime’s!

July 27, 2017 by admin 1 Comment

  “So, why a book for children?” I was asked that question in 2013 when I began 52 Commands of Jesus for Children. I don’t remember my answer then but now that the book is finished and on the great big bookshelf at Amazon I can clearly look back and see the “back story” of… [Read More]

Tasty Tuesday: July is all about QUINOA!

July 4, 2017 by admin 6 Comments

Quinoa, pronounced keen-wah, has great potential in the kitchen and in our day-to-day nutritional intake. I love it and use it a lot. It is good hot or cold and the secret is to add lots of great flavor to it with other ingredients. It is a protein champion. Tasty Tuesday is going to feature… [Read More]

Quietude: June 11th 2017

June 11, 2017 by admin 11 Comments

I took this photo years ago on a hike on the App Trail in the Grayson Highlands Park. The root system fascinated me then and still does today. There was no water near this path – is that why the roots of the huge tree stretch across the ground? Shallow Roots vs Deep Roots Water… [Read More]

Instagram post 2193140229115194451_3521265556 Kate said RUSH

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?
