I’ve Been Tagged

I was tagged by Sarah.
Donuts or bagels? Donuts. Cake munchkins…mm-mm. I never understood the fascination with bagels. Too chewy and tasteless without cream cheese. Might as well have a donut.

Consistency

The Lord has been dealing with me lately concerning consistency. Until today, I’ve been thinking of consistency as it relates to some specific details of my daily schedule.
But today, I read something that opened up another “realm” – or should I say “can of worms:” The New Testament meaning of patience as translated literally from [...]
