Perfect Peace
My “go to” scripture when I’m feeling stressed/overwhelmed/ready to curl up in a ball and whimper is Isaiah 26:3: “You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You.” This has been a stressful time for our family. Right now we’re trying to do that budget thing where […]

An experiment
Wednesday, I wrote a post that consisted entirely or whining and complaining. No lesson learned, no “and the moral of the story is…” Just gripe, gripe, gripe. It’s been shared over 50 times.

Fine Arts Friday: briefly
We’re traveling today, so I don’t have time to write a longer post. We’ll be spending our nature hour at Dinosaur Valley State Park.
