Said to a child who shall remain nameless). Things I never wanted to hear: "Mommy, your hair looks like a lion's mane! Said to me by Joy after I had dried but not yet flat ironed my hair). Posted under Just for Fun. A Matter of Perspective. Sometimes it's the small things that make me happy. Thanksgiving Break...

Then Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen. He named it Ebenezer, saying,"Thus far has the LORD helped us." - I Samuel 7:12. On earth that Sabbath was filled with grief, confusion, and loss for Jesus' followers. Those who loved Jesus mourned His death. And mourned the timing. Because He died so late on Friday, they had to wait until the Sabbath was over to give Him a proper burial. For others on earth that Sabbath was filled with fear. What if His disciples stole the body? The Living ...

Then Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen. He named it Ebenezer, saying,"Thus far has the LORD helped us." - I Samuel 7:12. It seems like our life is like an ocean: a series of never-ending waves. Just when I think things are manageable, a huge wave swells on the horizon and threatens to overwhelm me. And far too often I let it. Sometimes I feel like I can barely catch my breath! We've had a lot of waves this year, some thrilling and exhilarating, others just plain big. Subscribe to:...

Lent Me Your Ears - Thus Far
http://thusfarebenezer.blogspot.com/2010/02/lent-me-your-ears.html
Then Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen. He named it Ebenezer, saying,"Thus far has the LORD helped us." - I Samuel 7:12. Lent Me Your Ears. When I was in junior high, we joined a church that didn't celebrate the Lenten season. And I was glad. I began thinking about this "fast" a couple of weeks ago, and I now think that what I first thought would be a temporary change may be permanent. Either way, I'm excited about following God this Lenten season not out of obligation like I ...

I learned recently what the letter of the law actually is. According to one sweet daughter, it's H. Of course, she didn't say it in so many words, but I got the message anyway. She and her sister were having a. Disagreement when I heard her. Say loudly, "I h-word you! Of Calendars, Clocks, and Choices. I like the Jewish calendar. ...

All those weeks of practice paid off. The girls were able to dance on stage with professional dancers in front of a packed audience. And they all danced beautifully! Even Hope enjoyed watching her sisters dance. Faith was a party guest. Since she is tall, she had to wear a boy costume (which no modern boy I know w...

Then Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen. He named it Ebenezer, saying,"Thus far has the LORD helped us." - I Samuel 7:12. Birth of a Hobby (Part 1). When Faith came along, of course, our primary subject was our new baby. The camera we had was WAY off center, and finally we got a better one (still a film 35 mm point and shoot). This one still works, and Hope is now using it. That camera captured lots of baby pictures, birthdays, and Christmases. A few years ago we moved up to a digi...

Bruised, But Not Broken - Thus Far
http://thusfarebenezer.blogspot.com/2010/01/bruised-but-not-broken.html
Then Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen. He named it Ebenezer, saying,"Thus far has the LORD helped us." - I Samuel 7:12. Bruised, But Not Broken. It happened again. Someone said something that hurt and the pain lingered. It didn't matter whether it was inadvertent or if an apology was immediately forthcoming. I still hurt. And I wondered why I couldn't just shake it off, get over it. While I pondered this, an answer came to me: I had a soul bruise. Posted under Thus Far.
