God's Overflowing Blessings I’m a big drinker. Not alcohol, but hot tea, iced tea, coffee, diet Pepsi, and when I’m being health conscious, water. A beverage of some sort always sets nearby. My farmers are big drinkers, too, and I’m always searching for containers to take drinks to the field when the men are working 18 hour days. It seems the thermoses disappear, water jugs get lost or left in pickups at the other end of the field. I have to use whatever containers with lids I can find … [Read more...]
How to Meditate to Lessen Stress and Increase Joy
How to Meditate to Lessen Stress and Increase Joy Hello, Friends! Today we are going to talk about meditation for Christians, but before we jump into the conversation....

God and Designer Clothes: Why I Love the Church
Hello, friends! I’m just the most all-over-the-place blogger ever, aren’t I? Remember a few weeks ago when I started the series on Colossians? Then I got sidetracked by our anniversary and marriage advice from people I love and respect. Since then, I’ve been developing an E-course all about Holy Yoga. (It’s coming soon, so watch for it, friends!) Consequently, I haven’t posted in weeks although I have written up a storm of blogposts in my head. Oh, well. I’m the boss of this … [Read more...]
