Awesome Apostles

May 6, 2008 By 5 Comments

The past few weeks have found me reading the history of the early church as recorded in Acts. I find it awesome to read of the travels of the apostles. They were real men — Paul was a tentmaker. They had differences of opinion that affected the ministry of Jesus Christ — “the contention [between [...]

Wisdom and Kindness

April 17, 2008 By 2 Comments

“She opens her mouth in wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.” ~Proverbs 31:26 Yesterday, we visited a lady for whom I’m making 5 loose summer caftans. Whenever we go to her house, she has a treat for the children, including nice, cold water. Yesterday, she had a cup ready for them, [...]

Opportunities to Praise God

March 27, 2008 By 1 Comment

I’m embarassed to say that all along I haven’t been lubing my serger sufficiently. I could blame the teacher at the dealer, who gave me my first serger class — she said to oil it in two points only. But I really have no excuse because I thoroughly read my manual when I first got [...]

Notes About “Our Journey … “

March 18, 2008 By 3 Comments

I feel I jumped the gun in posting what I did yesterday (Our Journey to GNOWFGLINS™). The post contained many of my speculations. Yet, I stated those things as if they were fact. If you read it and got the impression that I was “laying down the law,” please forgive me. I rewrote the post [...]

Is Jesus Christ God?

March 3, 2008 By 18 Comments

I have been studying God’s Word for a few weeks to equip myself for the Jehovah’s Witnesses who come by. They were supposed to return to study with me last week, but they didn’t. If they don’t come this week, I’ll conclude that they’re avoiding me. That would surprise me because I don’t think I [...]

Black Wool Baselayer T-Shirts

February 22, 2008 By 4 Comments

After two treatments in the jet black overdye, the previously red merino wool t-shirts are now black. I had to dye them twice because after the first overdyeing, some of the red still peeked through. We’re enjoying our t’s and the extra warmth they give right next to our skin. I love wool! I am [...]

Eat Healthfully, But Not Just For Health (GNOWFGLINS™)

January 22, 2008 By 6 Comments

The Bible is abundantly clear that there are no longer any unclean foods. After Jesus’ death and resurrection, God released His people from the food rules of the Old Testament. …there is nothing unclean of itself; but to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean. Yet if your brother is [...]

The Ministry of Jesus Christ, According to MLK

January 11, 2008 By 4 Comments

Following are excerpts from Martin Luther King, Jr.’s speech, “Beyond Vietnam — A Time to Break the Silence” which he delivered on April 4th, 1967 at Riverside Church in New York City. I’ve pulled out the section which resonated with me. We listened to the rebroadcast of the speech on our local public radio station. [...]

“I Cannot Tell”

December 3, 2007 By 4 Comments

I Cannot Tell by William Y. Fullerton   I cannot tell why He whom angels worship, Should set His love upon the sons of men, Or why, as Shepherd, He should seek the wanderers, To bring them back, they know not how or when. But this I know, that He was born of Mary When [...]

Joy

October 12, 2007 By 3 Comments

Last night I was sewing, trying to finish something before Survivor started. I was also tired and had a wee bit of a headache and the kids’ noises were getting to me. I’m sensitive to giggling and silly chattering — it really drives me batty. Naomi came by and said something silly and I told [...]
