Vantage Point
She stumbles and goes down. She struggles to find her footing, but the sheer exhaustion wins out. I scream at her to get up as her opponent rushes in, arm raised to deliver the finishing blow…

Humble
Humble. Not a word frequently used in our society. After all, we are a “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” nation. To be humble: having or showing a modest estimate of one’s value or importance; not arrogant or self-important. One of the words in the Bible for humble means to make low or to level.

Calm
In times like these I’m so grateful that He doesn’t expect, nor does He want me to do life in my own strength.

The live oaks in the south are some of my favorite trees. Full of character and strength. To see these giants in their full glory, gnarled branches spread out wide, their ever present peaceful green leaves gently dancing with the breeze, creeping moss and vines slowly meandering their way up their wide trunk, large enough…

Backward Thinking
The movie Cars has been a favorite of both of my kids. Justin when he was little, and Megan at the ripe old age of 17 has found a new appreciation for the movie. One of my favorite parts is when McQueen tries to race the “old timer” Doc to get out of fixing the…
