Sunday, I had an experience that reminded me of who I am. While I was looking at pictures, remembering a great day, I saw a picture of me wearing earrings that I used to wear on the daily. I had a passing thought of how I missed wearing them which left my head as quicklyContinue reading “God’s interested in the small things”

Spiritual Fruit
Technorati Tags: spiritual fruit I see so many people with so many gifts that are causing their branches to sag. I look around at the people I know, and I see so much fruit sitting on the vine, just waiting to be picked and consumed. But why is the fruit not being picked? I haveContinue reading “Spiritual Fruit”
Spiritual fruit
On Saturday I was driving through South Jersey. Some parts of this state are really beautiful…rolling hills, greenery, corn blowing in the wind, peach trees laden with fruit. I drove through places that I have only seen on maps. It was really pretty. As I was driving along, I was awed by God’s majesty. ButContinue reading “Spiritual fruit”
Fruit: humility
Today I was talking to one of my co-workers. I told her that she reminds me of me when I was her age. She is a real go-getter. She knows what she wants, and she is not afraid to tell you what she wants, what she thinks she deserves. When I started my first “real”Continue reading “Fruit: humility”
Fruit: the series

I caught the program in the middle. Part of me felt like a peeping tom…it felt very voyeuristic. I saw some good stuff. I love that theContinue reading “Fruit: love”
Fruit: peace
Yesterday I started to feel crappy, so today I took a day off and went to the doctor. I got a shot, a stronger antibiotic, and sent for x-rays of my sinuses. I’m not alarmed. I’m being all growed up and taking care of my health. Saturday I get to have some blood work. LoveContinue reading “Fruit: peace”
Fruit: Faith
Two of my favorite passages in the scripture are when the Israelites come to the Red Sea and the Jordan River. I can’t imagine what must have been going through everyone’s head as the huge bodies of water. If my pastor lead me to a raging river or a sea and told me to putContinue reading “Fruit: Faith”
Fruit: Perserverance
A few months back, I was given a project at work. I spent two weeks doing research, and I came to the conclusion that we could not do what we wanted to do. So, I suggested a solution. After my boss re-researched the issue, he came to the same conclusion. Friday I was given anotherContinue reading “Fruit: Perserverance”
