Good morning, My favorite movie of all time has always been The Wizard of Oz . As a child, I would watch it every year on Easter. My dad actually made an audio tape of the whole movie and I would listen over and over. I had the dolls. My parents got my lovely plates of each [...]

If you have read my blog before, you might know that I really enjoy bringing all of my children grocery shopping with me.  I can’t completely explain why, but maybe it has something to do with the fact that I love watching them explore the store.  I mean, who else would get excited about the [...]

BethSelah wrote a new blog post: Look Intently, 10 hours, 4 minutes ago.

Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. But whoever [...]

But Samuel replied: “Does the lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the lord? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams. For rebellion is like the sin of divination, and arrogance like the evil of idolatry. Because you have rejected the [...]

Our youngest is two. A very tall, large headed two year old. I love her silky straight hair and how it swings when she runs. I love how the Lord is growing her into a little girl. It makes me sad too. I am still so glad she is two. Still a baby. And that’s [...]

So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. [...]
