Super Simple Spiritual Sunday Meme
I used to participate in the SSSS meme but I haven't for ages. Weekly meme's just come around far too quickly for me 😀 However, I do like to share links and today is Sunday! So, I'm going to do a SSSS meme again posting some articles or sites I've enjoyed over the...
Best Argument for Christianity
"The best argument for Christianity is Christians: their joy, their certainty, their completeness. But the strongest argument against Christianity is also Christians--when they are sombre and joyless, when they are self-righteous and smug in complacent consecration,...
Confession: My Ducks Are Not In A Row
I do not have all my ducks in a row. Not in any area of my life.
What If Starbucks Marketed Like the Church? A Parable.
Not only am I a follower of Christ but coffee is also one of my passions so this brief video is painfully funny but also relevant. Okay this might upset some readers so I guess it's pretty controversial but I think for those who have been Christians for awhile or been...
Perspective
Fount this at Fish n Cans...thought it was too good not to share. A young couple moves into a new neighborhood. The next morning while they are eating breakfast, the young woman sees her neighbor hanging the wash outside. "That laundry is not very clean", she said....
Participating in…
I was browsing some blogs (again) and I thought this post was so true and yet so applicable to my life, and no doubt, the life of many other homeschoolers...although it isn't specifically about homeschooling at all. Go check it out! And The Rock Was Christ posting...
Calvinist? Homeschooler? Something else?
This quote sums up why I don't call myself by any particular label. Granted I don't know the complete context in which Mr. Washer is talking about or to whom he is addressing but the general thought is still good. “Anytime your banner becomes anything other than Jesus...
Mother of Boys
I was catching up on some blog posts this morning and came across a gem (which is not unusual from Mrs. Wilson's blog) about parenting boys. Here's a snippet but do pop over to read the post in its entirety. According to Proverbs, mothers are to lay down the law,...
Struggling for Sanctification?
While we are looking at God we do not see ourselves--blessed riddance. The man who has struggled to purify himself and has had nothing but repeated failures will experience real relief when he stops tinkering with his soul and looks away to the perfect One. While he...
Quote from Tozer
God will not hold us responsible to understand the mysteries of election, predestination and the divine sovereignty. The best and safest way to deal with these truths is to raise our eyes to God and in deepest reverence say, `O Lord, Thou knowest.' Those things...

Another year: another design!
Welcome! You've made it to my new site/blog. I'm glad you're here. I’d been planning an upgrade of my blog and website. It was rather redundant to have both so I’ve now melded them together to make just the one site, blog included. For now, the old blog is still there...
Education is Not the Filling of a Pail
Education is not the filling of a pail, rather the lighting of a fire. ~ William Butler Yeats
Going away…
It sure is Silly Season here at our place. We're heading off tomorrow to visit with my Dad and I have several loads of laundry to do, the car needs to be cleaned, as does the house and in all that some people still want to be fed! Ha, they've got buckley's! We get...

My Mother
This post is from my heart. It's not meant to encourage, inspire or inform. It's just my way of expressing a deep feeling. It is personal yet need not be private. It is just me wanting to write, to honour, to respect a woman who was the most dearest woman to me. Her...
Conformed or transformed? (P3)
Conformed or Transformed~ Part 1-3 Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 “Transformation” is different in that it is a process…an outward expression that does come from within! Did you know that the Greek word underlying the word transformed is the verb, ‘metaorphoo’. Yup, from that...
Conformed or transformed (P2)
Conformed or Transformed~ Part 1-3 Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 “Conformed’ means to assume an outward expression that does not come from within. It is basically to masquerade, to put on a mask. If we are doing ’something’ for Christ then it is possible it is an act of...
Conformed or transformed? (P1)
I appeal to you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may prove...
