Cornerstone
Write 31 Days Challenge - Day 18
I was reading through my journal today and came across some sermon notes. This is a quote from my Pastor, "Even in the midst of a chaotic, violent world, Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. He truly is the Cornerstone." The word "cornerstone" means the chief foundation on which something is constructed or . . .

Be Still
Write 31 Days Challenge - Day 17
As I sat on my back deck recently, I was looking at the trees. The ones in the foreground were still, but the ones in the background were being blown by the wind. I was struck with how that is like life sometimes.

"Live loved"
Write 31 Days Challenge - Day 16

Seeing Clearly
Write 31 Days - Day 14
On a recent trip it was quite obvious that I needed new windshield wiper blades. The inability of the old ones to clear the pelting rain was the major factor. I really wasn't resisting buying wiper blades, I just kept forgetting to stop at the auto parts store; or maybe I knew there would be too many choices and I didn't want to face the . . .

DANCE
Write 31 Days Challenge - Day 13
Yesterday I shared my life verse from Zephaniah 3:17 and how I can picture myself dancing with Jesus. This image has not always been easy, but as I get older, it comes more often. Over the weekend I was part of a team leading a retreat and a friend of mine shared some thoughts on using DANCE as this acronym.

Life Verse
Write 31 Days Challenge - Day 12
My life verse is Zephaniah 3:17
I come back to it, again and again. It brings comfort to my soul. Here is how I would personalize it.
"Pam, my daughter, I am the Lord your God, I am living among you and I am your mighty Savior. I take great delight, great pleasure, in you. It is not what you do, but who you are; and I do it . . .
