The Angel(?) in the Chapel

At the hospital the other morning, having to rush my way through the plants to catch up from the Labor Day holiday, I'll admit I was feeling far from Christian. Or righteous, holy, pious...even grateful. Instead I was …
GoD and DoG

I don't much go in for kitchy things. I hate email-forwards; roll my eyes at corny slogans... But then I saw this, and it hit that tiny spot in my heart. Perhaps because I lost too many good dogs, or because I just lo…
Good-bye Kai

So I've done it, found a bird rescue to take Kai. Obviously it wasn't working out, and not between him and Dessah, but between him and I. Poor little bird, he was such a mistake for me; thus, for his first birthday, I'…
Why God Recalled to Me a Forgotten Memory

When I was little, I had a speech impediment. My parents sent me to a speech therapist and eventually I overcame it, with the exception my l's. Each word that began with that letter would come out with a "w" sound...in…
A lesson on the acceptance of grace...from a cat.

Well, over Memorial Day weekend I adopted a cat. Hadassah ...'dessah for short... wasn’t the feline I’d have picked, but the rescue operator thought her to be perfect for me. I went to meet her at an adoption fair an…
My Distractions and Idolatry, Part I of III

I’ve once again been speed-bumped in my walk with God. Potholed really. And it hasn’t been “with God” either. I’ve not been reading the Bible or writing in my journal-to-God, haven’t been listening to as many sermons …
This too shall pass...*

Keeghan died last night. I look around me at happy people and I wonder how can they be so carefree when my world has just stopped. Indeed, I wonder how I can be so carefree when I don't think of what happened. I've ke…
Chicken Pie and Beef Stew (...but can I have it without the meat please?)

Being single and generally not too concerned about cooking for just me, I am huge advocate of the frozen chicken pies and the cans of beef & barley soup (brand names to remain nameless). The gravy in both is wonderf…
Another Christian-bumpersticker post...as I see it.

One of the things I'm looking forward to doing with my Jeep is applying a Jesus-focused decal on the back-window. Thanks to the internet, I believe I've narrowed it down to this one from C-28 Christian Clothing Co. I…
