The Cross Isn’t Sexy: A Dying Man’s Confession. The Cross Isn’t Sexy: A Dying Man’s Confession. March 6, 2008. Mdash; 68 Comments. For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. During the first hours of the morning that commemorated twenty-nine years of being alive, I never more felt that death was at work in me. One thing I noticed was a shiny silver cross on his necklace. So I asked him, “What does that cross mean to you? So that th...

Mundane Miracles: Rejection, my old friend
http://readaboutrenee.blogspot.com/2011/10/lonelies.html
Looking for the miracles hidden in the everyday. Wednesday, October 26, 2011. Rejection, my old friend. It's amazing how the present can bring up the past and make it seem so real again. Mommyno one wants to play with me at recess anymore. Not even my friends. I ask everybody, and nobody wants to play with me.". Oh how this mama's heart hurt at those words! I dug a little deeper and was able to find out that while she did play by herself at one recess, she played with 2 girl friends during the 2 nd.

Mundane Miracles: Wrestling
http://readaboutrenee.blogspot.com/2011/05/wrestling.html
Looking for the miracles hidden in the everyday. Monday, May 02, 2011. When I was younger and more full of myself, I read the story of how Jacob wrestled with an angel of God. I remember thinking to myself. How could someone wrestle with God? They must be prideful and arrogant. And then to say "I'm not letting go until you bless me? I can't even imagine! I feel like I was up all night wrestling with God.". Oh, how I am like Jacob! It's hard. Unbelievably hard. You'd think it would be easy, right? Today, ...

Looking for the miracles hidden in the everyday. Thursday, August 13, 2009. Thursday August 13, 2009: 2:00 pm. I've been thinking for a long time about my relationship with blogging. It started out as a great outlet for my thoughts.I have tried my whole life to keep a journal and feel so much better when I do, but thought it would be easiest to type a journal instead of taking the time to 'write' in one. (That might actually make my hand cramp! So I'm going back to basics. Journaling. I was in charge of ...

Looking for the miracles hidden in the everyday. Saturday, August 23, 2008. Fireworks in the Rain. I have made the decision to start living. For most of my life I have just gone through the motions, getting through each day. Most recently, my days have gone something like this:. Only 2 more hours until naptime. Or "My hubby will be home in 1/2 an hour! And "I can't wait until tomorrow because of such and such.". I spend most of my time just surviving. Existing, but not living. Today was my first day of l...

Mundane Miracles: April 2008
http://readaboutrenee.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Looking for the miracles hidden in the everyday. Tuesday, April 29, 2008. Journey in the Desert: Day 333; We're Here! Just in case there are any mathematicians. Out there who realize that my 'Journey in the Desert' days don't add up; I originally started counting the days from when our townhouse first went on the market. I decided to change the starting date to when we first decided to pursue a move to Michigan. Since we didn't sell the townhouse, I thought that might be irrelevant. It was ov. My husband...

Looking for the miracles hidden in the everyday. Monday, January 10, 2011. A dear friend of mine posted a song on my Faceb. K page the other day. She said it made her think of me.it is called. By Matthew West. It was perfect. The chorus goes like this:. I know I'm not strong enough to be everything that I'm supposed to be. I give up. I'm not strong enough. Hands of mercy won't you cover me. Lord right now I'm asking you to be strong enough. Strong enough.". Not sound too complainy. So I cling. I reme...
