Lent: Lengthening of Days
Posted Friday, February 23, 2018, at 9:47 PMAs a commuter I do a lot of driving in the dark of early morning. It’s a little scary, to be honest, because I cannot see what is off to the sides. If the deer that I will inevitably meet comes up then we will just have to battle it out: Car vs. Deer! I will probably lose that battle. I’ve been hit by a deer before... -
What a Friend we have in Jesus!
Posted Friday, February 9, 2018, at 7:54 PMWhat a Friend we have in Jesus! I reflect often on growing up in the little cul-de-sac on the east side of Indianapolis.

I was holding this little miracle and I was just so deeply touched and in awe of what God has done in creating new life. Her little heart beating, her chest moving in and out with each breath and her eyes (when opened) taking in her new world. She was just a little doll... -
God puts the jigsaw puzzle of life together
Posted Friday, December 1, 2017, at 11:03 PMI have found a new hobby that I enjoy very much! I have begun to put together jigsaw puzzles! I happened to see one on sale at a store and bought it and brought it home. I cleared off the kitchen table and dumped out this 300 piece marvel. I looked over the picture on the box and thought “this will be impossible!” There was a huge inn that was at the center with 11 windows and a lake in front of it with lily pads and ducks and a barn and several outbuildings all over the property! It was overwhelming at first until I decided to break it down to one piece at a time, one area of the puzzle at a time. ... -
Satellite radio is great blessing
Posted Monday, November 6, 2017, at 11:25 AMOne of the many blessings of a daily commute is satellite radio! It’s really a great bonus and if your car is equipped for it, I highly recommend it. They are not very expensive and you have over 120 channels of all the news you can handle, music of every shape and size, comedy channels, and sports channels. There is even an audiobook channel where you can listen to people read great books... -
