    What are your dreams?

    Dreams, goals and having a vision for our future - we are given those by God. Where I worked I taught employees there were "now"/"soon"/"later" projects, that they needed to work on the now while doing preparation for the soon and laters. In our christian walk we need to do the same. Work...

    Women as Pastors, That Kind of Church

    Many of the pentecostal associations and several evangelical associations do allow women in the ministry.

    Have you ever tasted...

    oh,oh,oh, pick me, pick me! How about deep fried dandelion flowers? pick, rinse, batter like you would other veggies (but add a pinch of brown sugar) and fry.

    Red is the reason

    I'm red, the red of the opera curtain just before it raises, the red of a Twizzler, the red of Dorothy's slippers- just needing to be clicked together 3 times to take us away, the red of the sunset after a busy day, the red of a fire truck as it races to save someone's home, the red of a stop...

    Hearts' need to hearts' need

    When sleep seems nigh impossible I use the time to pray. God goes with me as I scoot from hearts' needs to heart's need to heart. We visit our friends, family and those I find running through my mind. We tour houses filled w/ pain, homes filled w/ joy and rooms that echo w/ loneliness.We pray...

    God and I visit

    in the soft gray glazed minutes of the early morning after all others are sleeping God creeps into my home, snags a cup of coffee and we visit. We banter for a few minutes about the day past and to come and then get down to those items on my list.
