The Plan

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. 2 Corinthians 5:17 When you buy a new car- equipped with all the bells and whistles- how often do you feel the urge to park it permanently so you can cruise around in your old…

Tonight, the Razorbacks are playing the Cotton Bowl.  The plan is to watch it, but not by myself.  Life is too short to be alone in a dark room watching tv.  Something to think about.  WPS!

When bums come knocking at 2:00 am, it get’s the family talking about other stories. There was another time when someone came by my aunt and uncle’s house.  This time it was in the morning.  He asked for some money or food.  My uncle sent him away.  Then he felt bad.  Probably because my aunt…

So what’s less freaky than a stranger knocking on your door at 2:00 am? (Foreign missionaries aren’t allowed to answer that one.) Remember the whole my-kid-bonked-her-noggin-while-visiting-family incident.  She fell asleep pretty quick.  It was about 2:13 am.  I was still wired from the blood curdling scream.  I had decided to sleep on the couch next to…

Over the holidays we got to see a lot of family.  It was really awesome.  To do that, however, you have to do a lot of travelling and a lot of sleeping in unfamiliar places.  Sleeping gets even tougher when you have two small girls.  We made a brilliant decision and forgot our youngest’s play…

Sometimes you have to go where the roads aren’t.

So… Today is the first snow of the year in our neck of the woods.  Actually, it started yesterday.  I had a substitute in my classroom.  When I saw the snow I ran into the room and opened the blinds for my students to see.  This was risky. Exposing a group of students to the…

We just survived a road trip.  We are on the road a LOT.  Actually, we are looking for a new vehicle to accomodate this obsession.  If it were up to my preference, we would not travel so much.  It make you road weary.  It causes you bum to hurt.  The kids just want to be out…

Yesterday I talk about when we push through life too fast. Today, I want to talk about when we take it too slow.  In fact, sometimes we don’t start life at all.  We are always waiting around for everything to happen.  And there are many occasions where waiting is OK.  Here is a few that…
