God Looks at the Heart

"The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart."  1 Samuel 16:7The outward appearance can be deceiving when it comes to many things - especially people.  What's on the inside may not necessarily be what you s…

Pro-Life Pre Teen

And a little child shall lead them!   I believe a mighty spirit is arising in our sons and daughters today.  This little gal from Canada is a prime example.  God is speaking through their still, small voices - things that resonate with our spirits; as loud as thunder but tender enough to pluck the s…

Prayer Updates

Nephew - is learning to cope with his Juvenile Diabetes and still on antibiotics from his bacterial infection.  We received pictures from my sister from the hospital and then ones she took at home.  I thought he looked extremely skinny and sickly.  He told me himself that he is feeling okay, but I k…

Speaking Up on a Few Things...

I caught an interview with the octuplets mom on MSNBC the other night.  I watched with some glimmer of hope that she would say something that made half an ounce of sense... but I have to admit that outside of stating that "all life is precious" and that "babies are a blessing from God" I didn't hear…

Pearl Necklaces

I was shocked this year when my husband of almost 18 years gave me the biggest Valentine's present I had ever received - a REAL cultured pearl necklace.   He didn't pay a lot for it - apparently there was some deal with the NRA (yes, the National Rifle Association of which he is a member).  Regardle…

Prayer Requests

Normally I do not post anything on Sunday, but I had a couple of pressing prayer requests today.

First of all, my oldest nephew was rushed to nearby hospital for severe stomach pain yesterday afternoon.  After initial tests were run including a urinalysis, it was discovered that he has Juvenile Diab…

What Have You Done For Me Lately?

I will never forget in High School when a teacher informed me, "Jenni, this is a "what have you done for me lately" world.   He followed that up with a statement that  I was being passed up for an award.  It did not bother me about the award, because I had a closet full of certificates, awards, etc.…

Witnessing 101

I had to add this today because I thought it was so good.  It's nothing you may not have heard before, but it sure brings the reality of salvation home!

My son, Moses, was recording some reading for us to send into the academy.  The story he was reading was about a little girl trying to witness to h…

Clips from the Classroom

My little boys have been studying the 23rd Psalm in school.  Levi worked on this last year, so it's pretty much a refresher for him, but for Zeke  - it's the first time.  Since it is so long, we've taken several weeks to learn it in sections:  For example, the first week …

Harnessing the Wind

I awoke this morning with the winds howling outside. Not cold, brisk winds, either.   It's unusually warm here in Kansas City - so much so that it seems more like mid spring weather than winter!  We're even expecting spring like thunderstorms this afternoon!

This warmer weather has been good news f…

The Little Rudder

Here's another quick lesson from a commercial...Have you ever known anyone that you wish could lose their mouth, like Mrs. Potato Head?   (By the way, my first thought was... if she had an extra pair of evil eyes, then why didn't she have an extra mouth in her purse as well?)I thi…

On God's Terms

My daughter sent me this funny commercial a few days ago about "Free Doritos".  It originally aired during the Superbowl.  It reminded me of something I say a lot:  God doesn't operate on our terms, we operate on His.  Now think about how we treat God like that crystal ba…
