Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad; let the sea resound, and all that is in it. Let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them; let all the trees of the forest sing for joy. Let all creation rejoice before the Lord… – Psalm 96:11-12 So the other day I was outside shooting some photos of the amazing hydrangea…
Get all the advice and instruction you can, so you will be wise the rest of your life. You can make many plans, but the Lord’s purpose will prevail. Proverbs 19:20-21 Just a quick post this morning. Short and to the point. I have way too many details and appointments to deal with today, so I’m going to…
God saw everything he had made: it was supremely good. There was evening and there was morning: the sixth day. Genesis 1:31 Tuesday evening, after an amazingly delicious supper featuring the best sea-bass I have tasted in quite some time, I took Max Retriever for a relaxing walk in the waning light. There is something…

Additionally (if you…
“I came so they (all of us) can have real and eternal life, more and better life than they ever dreamed of…” – Jesus, John 10:10 So I have to confess that my last post (Every Car We Have Ever Owned) was not exactly devotional in content. But it absolutely was fun, and I firmly…

Verse of the day: Then the Lord God said, “I see that it is not good for the man to be alone. I will make the companion he needs, one just right for him.” – Genesis 2:18 I like this translation of Genesis 2:18. It is clear that we have been created in the context of community,…
This image was supposed to be the post beauty-parlor “Doesn’t he look good” shot of Max after his visit to the groomer. But it turned into a serendipitous “Don’t they look wonderful” portrait instead. One of the great blessings of this pandemic is Rebekah doing much of her work from home. Of course it means…
