Peace and quiet…in 2024?!?

Sometimes you just gotta take time to have fun and play pickleball! Jen and I had never played before, and we had a blast trying it out with our nephews today (the girls were at sewing camp). It’s been a fairly busy week, and sometimes the best stress relief is to just step back and enjoy something simple. This park is surrounded by farmland with mountains in the distance, and all that made a nice peaceful and relaxing backdrop for our games. Pickleball is a little bit noisy, but there is often some of the best peace and quiet in simple moments like that. Isaiah 30:15 says, “For thus saith the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and ye would not.” Isaiah 32:17 says, “And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.” The word quietness really jumped out to me as I read those verses. Yes there will be wonderful peace in h...

Skittles Shriekers: They just MIGHT be really sour! Or maybe not!

Silly family fun (Jen and I also made some interesting sour faces when it was our turn, but we’ll stick to these pics of the girls!). All the Skittles look normal. You might get one that tastes normal. Or you might get one that’s REALLY sour! Fun candy to try. Horrible way to have to live, constantly wondering if things will end well or turn out sour. Isaiah 47:8-10 says, “Therefore hear now this, thou that art given to pleasures, that dwellest carelessly, that sayest in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of children: 9 But these two things shall come to thee in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and widowhood: 10 For thou hast trusted in thy wickedness: thou hast said, None seeth me. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge, it hath perverted thee;” These verses were written about Israel thousands of years ago, but they fit America right now. Saying yes to any temptation, any pleasure, MIGHT work out…for a littl...

In this heat, I feel like those tables!

They look like they’re melting!🤣 I think today’s storm brought some cooler temperatures to Pennsylvania at least! Some of us are “melting” on the inside (melting down maybe!), and a lot of us are no doubt just trying to put on a good front so nobody will know everything that’s going on. I’m glad God sees the real us and loves us perfectly anyway. He sees the real issues we’re facing and really wants to help. Joel 2:13 says, “And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.” Let’s notice our real needs, the ones that start in our hearts where no one else but God can see. The real us is us no matter how good of a show we put on the outside. And the real us is who God has an amazing plan for.
