One of Those Days

"I feel so discouraged and so "not enough" today! Doubting everything, hating myself, feeling so unsure and guilty!!"

 

Writing these words in my journal, I move to the computer to process my thoughts. Writing helps me do that.

 

 

Love - How and Who?

"In what areas of your life do you need Christ's light to dawn?"

That was the question posed to me this morning from my Advent reading*.

Perfectly Imperfect

There is, it seems, a much greater drive to achieve "perfection" at this time of year. We want the "perfect" tree, we want to buy the "perfect" gift, we want that "perfect" family picture for the "perfect" Christmas card.

 

 

The Goal of Good-bye

As usual at this time of year, many of us "take stock" of our past year and then most likely "resolve" to do and be better in the next year! And, as usual, we find it doesn't take very long to fail at that resolve!

Our Personal "Advent" Season

I just received a significant revelation from the Lord this week that has so blessed me and will change the days ahead for me, I expect, and the way I approach prayer.

A Gift Enjoyed

One of my most heart-warming memories of Christmas when I was younger is the year I got the only item I wrote down on my Christmas list - a portable transistor radio!!

Fear Not...According to Linus

For the past couple of weeks, I have been pondering a Scripture from the Christmas story in Luke's gospel -

"And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the LORD appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, Fear not. for I bring you good tidings of

great joy that will be for all the people."

Luke 2:8-10
