May #jammed: Growing Grace. Day 137: The wrong spot. “Make your parents happy“ Proverbs 23:22 “Oh, no, MOM!” my daughter wailed, “our bench is gone.” We’d been stopping eat lunch on our favorite bench since she was just a little toddler. Things change and life moves …and so did our bench. Today’s section of Proverbs encourages […]
May #jammed: Growing Grace. Day 135: Measurements. “Your future with Him will be certain, and you will not have hoped in vain.” Proverbs 23:18 It’s not a proud parental moment for my husband and I, but it really was a funny one.

May #jammed: Growing Grace. Day 132: Reminded. “Apply your heart to instruction and your ears to words of knowledge.” Proverbs 23:12 The pink morning sky made my feet light as I hurried to the end of the pier. Warm morning air, boats leaving the river, and the first orange glint of the sun …made me want to […]
May #jammed: Growing Grace. Day 130: It’s easier on us. “Don’t waste your breath on fools, for they will despise the wisest advice.” Proverbs 23:9 (VOICE) Red and raw and dripping out incessantly over every sleeve, meal, and keyboard strike …my nose pulled the day’s productivity to halt. Out of tissues and onto toilet paper and […]
May #jammed: Growing Grace. Day 129: Invisible. “Don’t eat with people who are stingy…” Proverbs 23:6(NLT) The first lesson competition dance taught me, besides sticker shock, was fake eye-lash application. It’s a lot more intimidating than it looks, and far easier than waving a mascara wand at a moving …flinching object. Still, the mistakes at the […]
