WORDS TO LOVE BY...

Words to Love by... Frolic! How often do you Frolic with your spouse? Your kids? Your besties? “And you will go out and frolic like well-fed calves." Malachi 4:2. I was curious what it means to be a “well fed calf.” I loved Pastor Dans explanation from his Grace notes blog... “In the spring, the calves would go out on fresh pasture and would leap and run for joy. When you saw them there was no way to keep a smile from breaking out on your face. After a long cold winter the fr

Words to Love by... “...For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall much be required...” We all have been given breath by the King of Kings and Lord of Lord’s. His hands have been upon us from our mothers womb. How can I use the breathe in my lungs today? My brand is attached to the King and how I choose to speak, to write, to post, to share matters in every way. With Him we get to decide who we are and who we want to become. We can begin that process and start New at an

Words to Love by... It's easy to lose sight of the Rainbow when you are caught in the storm. I think the most magical part of the rainbow is the Promise. The promise that I have been brought "through" something. Which means I can't just bunker down and let it pass over... I must weather through it. It's in the weathering, colors are painted. It's in the journey, beauty is revealed. And it's in the summit of the promise, Hope is restored. "Hope does not disappoint!"

Words to Love by... If there is one thing I have learned on this land it's that there is so much more to every thing! Always!!! I have been labeled as, just "so deep" by a multitude of family and friends... My Dad would say that all the time... and there are so many more layers than I can even begin to understand!

Words to Love by... Come to the table and eat together. As we prepare for the feast, let's remember why... Relationships. A place to gather and belong, express thanksgiving and so much more than the pictures we post... it's the hearts behind the smiles that matter. Let us really connect this Thanksgiving, listen to one another and Love in the way that will nourish more than our bodies. It was customary in the early church to eat together when there was a desire to grow

Words to Love by... As Brendan Burchard said in the book I am relishing, "...seeking change always requires a touch of insanity." This kid, JD Mette, amazes me in his ability to step outside his comfort zone and explore his talents! There is no holding him back! To think even from the time he was knit within, he was cautious. When he just learned to walk, I went to place his feet in the grass and his legs lifted up in a seating position as if there were a pulley system r

Words to Love by... Possibly the most beautiful words ever spoken... "Where are you?" Words spoken in pursuit of salvation. Words spoken in pursuit of community, love, inclusion, hope, vision embrace. When you move towards someone who has hurt you and you do it bathed in a love that can cover over the pain, cover over the wrong, cover over the ugly and you choose to step into the mess of the story... WOW... think about that! You cannot step into someone else's mess wit

Words to Love by... History. I "experienced the "Diary of Anne Frank" last night at our son and daughters high school. My son played the part of the store keeper, it was perfectly suited for his heart. So many impactful scenes! What a journey... every part! The encore was striking... that is the picture you see here. Not the typical you would see as the cast receives its standing ovation though appropriately administered. There is an enemy we face... and the evil is al
