In A Secret Place: A "MAGIC NECKLACE"
http://in-a-secret-place.blogspot.com/2014/05/a-magic-necklace.html
In A Secret Place. A Journey of Inner Transformation. Monday, May 26, 2014. When I travel, I have a special necklace that I like to take with me. It’s a pendant that has seven colored stones that can be changed to go with whatever I might be wearing. Recently I was staying with an African friend in Kenya. Each day the stone in my necklace was a different color, matching what I was wearing. She was very impressed when she realized that it was the same necklace that I was wearing every day. We both had a g...

In A Secret Place: April 2012
http://in-a-secret-place.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
In A Secret Place. A Journey of Inner Transformation. Tuesday, April 17, 2012. In the name of “spring-cleaning” I've been attacking some shelves in the basement and came across a long-forgotten, unused, Christmas gift—a set of knives. I began to think of other things in my life that are available to me, but going unused. In particular, I began focusing on all that God has given us as believers in Jesus–“for by grace. You have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God.

In A Secret Place: NEW BEGINNINGS
http://in-a-secret-place.blogspot.com/2014/01/new-beginnings.html
In A Secret Place. A Journey of Inner Transformation. Wednesday, January 1, 2014. Today is the first day of the rest of my life—a new beginning. The idea of new beginnings permeates our culture. We have expressions like, “Tomorrow’s a new day” when things aren’t going well, or “I’ve turned over a new leaf” when speaking of a new direction in our lives. There are new beginnings that mark off time, such as the beginning of a new year, a new day, or a new season. No new beginning is permanent. In some respe...

In A Secret Place: PLAGUE FORMULA
http://in-a-secret-place.blogspot.com/2013/04/plague-formula.html
In A Secret Place. A Journey of Inner Transformation. Sunday, April 28, 2013. Several years ago, I became aware of a “Plague Formula” recipe. From what I understand, something similar to this potent formula may have been used during the Middle Ages in Europe to strengthen one’s immune system and help resist dying from The Bubonic Plague. This particular formula, developed by Dr. Richard Schulze, is as follows:. 1 large white onion. 2 large bulb garlic. 1 large ginger root as long as your hand. The other ...

In A Secret Place: November 2012
http://in-a-secret-place.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
In A Secret Place. A Journey of Inner Transformation. Friday, November 23, 2012. It’s the day after Thanksgiving, and all the activity of the day—cooking, eating, spending time in fellowship with friends—is over. In the quietness of this “day after” I’ve spent some time reflecting on wha. T I’m really thankful for—not just in words, but in true heartfelt emotion. Our driver’s quick reaction saved our lives. And during this current trip, we had seen accidents almost every day we were in Nairobi. Strangely...

In A Secret Place: December 2013
http://in-a-secret-place.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
In A Secret Place. A Journey of Inner Transformation. Tuesday, December 24, 2013. When my son was a child, we got him a small ant farm for Christmas one year. If some of you aren’t familiar with an ant farm, it’s two plates of glass sealed together with approximately ¾” space between them. That space is filled up with soil and live ants are put in. This ant farm provided hours of fascinating observation and learning the ways of the ants. I invite you to join me in a game of ‘pretend.’. Specifically, they...

In A Secret Place: July 2012
http://in-a-secret-place.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
In A Secret Place. A Journey of Inner Transformation. Wednesday, July 4, 2012. A TALE OF TWO KINGS. Today is July 4, the birthday of the United States of America. On this date in 1776, our forefathers put their lives on the line and signed the Declaration of Independence, declaring freedom from British rule. Those of us who know and understand the history of our country have a deep gratitude for the patriots who risked everything for what they believed was right. Their example still motivates us today.

In A Secret Place: March 2012
http://in-a-secret-place.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
In A Secret Place. A Journey of Inner Transformation. Tuesday, March 13, 2012. In recent days there’s been a lot of talk about privacy issues concerning the internet. Google, in particular, has been singled out because of the changes it has made regarding the information it collects about individuals and how that information is used. We like to think of our private lives as being “private.”. We feel uncomfortable when we realize that our every move is being tracked, even though we may have nothing to hide.

In A Secret Place: September 2012
http://in-a-secret-place.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
In A Secret Place. A Journey of Inner Transformation. Monday, September 3, 2012. THE DELIGHT OF NEW INSIGHTS. Have you ever experienced an insight that filled you with delight? My husband immediately thought of the expression “selling coal to Newcastle.”. Having only a vague recollection of its meaning, we looked it up on his iPhone. As we were discussing and thinking about this, my husband suddenly said, “Hey, we’re in coal mining country and the name of the next town is Newcastle! We knew we were on th...
