I Am Alpineflower: Excess
http://iamalpineflower.blogspot.com/2009/03/excess.html
Sunday, March 22, 2009. Puts it, is a legitimate longing that can only find its fulfillment in Christ (N.T. Wright also discusses this at length in his book. Just as a pendulum longs to rest at the center, pulled to stillness by the force of gravity, so we long for the quiet rest of God's peace. As the pendulum slows, and the heart settles into its solitude, God promises an abundant, rich and meaningful life. That's the life I want. That's the direction I want to head.

Wednesday, June 16, 2010. Picture Pages, Picture Pages. Bethany and I washing the knives so we could cut vegetables for our picnic. Washing in the stream and then rinsing with filtered water (from my Nalgene). This was before the hike. These are the falls! Aren't they just beautiful? Again, repelling gear to come down. This was on the way to the top. I didn't alter this camera angle at all! Beautiful view from the top! Hope you enjoyed the pictures! Molly K Katy K. I was sure we ingrained it into you!

http://iamalpineflower.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 30, 2008. Wednesday, November 26, 2008. Since I'm hosting Thanksgiving tomorrow and things are going to be hectic, I'll take a second today to say Happy Thanksgiving! I'm thankful for my family, my house, and the Pioneer Woman's incredible illustrated Thankgiving recipe collection. Here's one who I'm particularly thankful for:. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Wife to My Hero, mother to Doodle, knitter of more stash than is reasonable, and reader of whatever strikes my fancy. Ah, High School.

I Am Alpineflower: Denouement
http://iamalpineflower.blogspot.com/2009/04/denouement.html
Sunday, April 12, 2009. I am glad I did this. The past 40 days or so have been one of the most meaningful Lenten experiences of my sacramentalist life. I am particularly struck right now with the way my discipline and my regular life coexisted - it wasn't ever a case of "now I'm fasting, and when I'm done I'll take out the trash", but it was both living and - dare I say worshiping? April 12, 2009 at 8:58 PM. Say hi to Hero for me.hope you guys had a nice Easter/trip. April 12, 2009 at 9:03 PM. View my co...

I Am Alpineflower: Solitude
http://iamalpineflower.blogspot.com/2009/03/solitude.html
Sunday, March 8, 2009. Solitude is the furnace of transformation. Without solitude we remain victims of our society and continue to be entangled in the illusions of the false self. . Solitude is the place of the great struggle and the great encounter - the struggle against the compulsions of the false self, and the encounter with the loving God who offers himself as the susbstance of the new self." - Henri Nouwen,. The Way of the Heart. No blogs to read, no email to check, no celebrity foibles to laugh at.

I Am Alpineflower: January 2009
http://iamalpineflower.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 24, 2009. That thing that's a virtue. In 2007, around Thanksgiving, I was laid off from the hospital I'd worked at for almost five years. I got six weeks of severance, and found a job at a construction company as their office manager that started the week my severance ran out. Starbucks isn't even hiring. Don't worry about tomorrow; tomorrow has enough trouble of its own.". Life is what happens when you're making other plans.". Friday, January 2, 2009. No, not the Insult Comic Dog.

Going green without turning our lives upside down. June 20, 2007. Everywhere, everyone seems to be talking about going green , carbon neutrality, and sustainable living. We’d all like to see a healthier future for planet Earth to help reduce global warming, reverse toxic imbalances in the environment, and stave off glacier meltdowns. But what does it really mean to live a more ecologically friendly lifestyle? Do we have to drop out of society and live off grid? Is that even possible? So as part of this b...

Liberia or Bust: "Tiny Glimpses of Hope" or "Nearing the End": Take Your Pick
http://liberiaorbust.blogspot.com/2010/07/tiny-glimpses-of-hope-or-nearing-end.html
Friday, July 23, 2010. Tiny Glimpses of Hope" or "Nearing the End": Take Your Pick. 7 weeks down, 3 to go. Actually though, I count it as 2 weeks because the team will be here the final week. You know what they say about many hands and work. Life has been pretty heavy the last couple of weeks. The patients have all been fine (more or less). So, that has been a huge blessing. This exchange came at the end of my most difficult week here. Actually, this has been the coolest part for me. Through all ...I wil...

Liberia or Bust: Stranded in England . .
http://liberiaorbust.blogspot.com/2008/04/stranded-in-england.html
Wednesday, April 9, 2008. Stranded in England . . Actually, the apartment we were to be lodged in had been attacked overnight. After much prayer and consideration, the team decided that this was not the best time for us to visit Yemen. I'm not sure if our profile got too high, or if it those responsible had just hit a lucky target. I think it's probably impossible to know. The Ten Commandments, The Mummy,. The Prince of Egypt. Is not as cuddly as one would think! I also had my pub lunch yesterday. When w...
