What Are You Waiting For?

January 7, 2019 By Lynn Austin

Do any of us enjoy waiting? In shopping lines? In traffic? At the doctor’s office? Or for our prayers to be answered? This morning, the psalm I read during my quiet time said, “Each morning I bring my requests to You and wait expectantly” (Psalm 5:3).

Looking Back at 2018 and My Word for 2019

December 31, 2018 By Robin Lee Hatcher

Can you believe it's that time again? Time to say farewell to an old year and to welcome a new one.

On Elevators and Christmas

December 5, 2018 By D'Ann Mateer

Yesterday was a normal day. Wake up. Spend some time with Jesus. Run some errands. Do a bit of online shopping. (Oops! Not on the to do list, but there you go!) Change into workout clothes intending to walk for a little while on the treadmill before sitting down to work on this post. But first, a trip downstairs to get the mail and pick up a package. As you know, I live in a downtown high rise, … [Read more...]
