Footprints
(Preview)
The problem with eating your way through the fridge is that the closer it gets to empty the fewer (and less desirable) the options tend to be. I got a head start in trying to empty my fridge before finally moving and as I opened it up and looked in this evening there was only one thought... "I want Chin...

Those Stinkin Hills (Random Thoughts on a Winter Morning)
(Preview)
So I was watching some kids go sledding this morning. It was a beautiful day for it. It was cold enough to get the ears red, but not so cold as to make your lungs burn when you breathe in deeply. It wasn't very windy and the big flakes were gently coming down slow and steady. The white on the ground was perfect...

The Song of a Bitter Man
(Preview)

He invites us to see and hear what is around us and, through it all, to discern the footprints of the holy." - Richard Foster My alarm went off this morning. I lumbered out of b...

Outside of Our Experience
(Preview)
I'm reading this book that has a chapter on being able to communicate outside of your realm of experience and it really got me thinking. I'll ask a few questions that it has had bouncing around in my head, but first I want to quote what it was that I read. Please note this was written about 40 years ago by a ma...

Since When Is It A Bad Thing To Be Co-Dependant
(Preview)
I was sitting there, bummed after a pretty rough day at work, listening to Plumb, and playing NCAA football on PS2 when the song "I can't do this" started playing. [I'm inserting the lyrics here] I woke up late Guess I'm never really early I hesitate, only to fail I get so tired, of procrastin...

Asthma
(Preview)
As I walked up to the door to the house, I knew this was a mistake. The sound of two dogs barking as the doorbell rang caused me to cringe inside and I was already making my plans to leave as soon as possible. The problem is, I don't have my cell phone with me. Neither do I have the other things that I would need t...

Waiting On God
(Preview)
Yesterday I did a wonderfully dangerous thing. I told God I needed to hear from Him. And then I stopped. And I sat. And I listened. And I waited. And what did He say to me? Nothing. But in the waiting on God I found peace.

Waiting Tables
(Preview)
I saw this (and copied and posted it) as a bulletin a loooong time ago. It was first posted by a friend who works as a server at Olive Garden. I was waiting a table today where the couple said they went to Olive Garden first and waited 20 minutes at a table and when their server never came they left and came to U...

A Centering Prayer
(Preview)
As the light turned red we slowed to a stop. My eyes traveled slowly up from their intense study of my worn shoes. Moving slowly across the aisle and beyond the vacant beige seat. Slightly to the left and over the shoulder of the bored looking brunette waiting impatiently for her destination, there it s...
