Additional writings

Those who know me, know I love to learn–and to share.  What God shows me as I study becomes the material I share online.  Each week I write for TBL Faith News and Lambs of the Lord (a children’s site).  Those pieces are as much my heart for followers of Christ as the material I place on here, and I want to make it readily available.  So here are some additional pieces that may speak to your heart.

If the opening piques your interest, jump on over to the website.

Our GPS is an excellent guide; she and I just don’t get along.  It’s not her fault.  We’re often out of sync with one another–or more accurately, I am out of sync with her.  She gives an order, and I obey—too soon and end up on a wrong road.  Or the street she insists on doesn’t fit my recall, so I ignore her—and end up on a wrong road.  She patiently and persistently redirects me.  Best of all:  my struggles with the GPS help me see my problems with a bigger and better guide:  God Himself.

Helping children learn to walk out their faith is the highest privilege and priority parents have.  It is my joy to offer some devotions geared to that.
