13 Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”—14 yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. 15 Instead you ought to … More Lesser Loves.
I know you single people. I remember the words people love to encourage you with. I’ve heard them before. I’ve said them before. “You’re such a catch!

“When we hit our lowest point, we are open to the greatest change.” Some Avatar Aang wisdom that always seems to get me. It’s definitely a worthy phrase that I’ve really enjoyed pondering, mostly because it’s proven to be quite true in my own life.

Last weekend Steve and I drove up to Montreal to attend a marriage conference. “OOOOOOOOOh.” Yeah. … More Irritant.
School has begun and I’m sitting at work, completely detached from the nerves and anxieties, excitement and dread of the freshmen, and returning students in my city. Sometimes I believe I’d love to be sitting in a lecture again, because I associated being a student with having a lot of “free time” I’d get to delegate … More School.
45 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. 46 When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it. Matthew 13:45-46 Great sermon delivered on Sunday about love, and what it is and looks like to love God. I was thoroughly blessed, to … More Pearls.
