Through the Lens of Faith

There is something I love about this image. The path moves right around the obstacle. It doesn’t stop. It just changes direction for a moment. Sometimes our lives are like that, too. We travel along a certain path and something blocks our way. We may hesitate for a moment, but then we move around the…

As a child my favorite season was autumn. There’s nothing I love more than seeing the trees change colors. I love the vibrant reds, yellows and different shades of green that accompany the season. I hesitate, each year, to admit and recognize that those leaves signal another change – the change to a colder, darker…

Sometimes our faith lives can get sticky. There can be so many different ways we are pulled in life that it’s hard to focus on our faith. Cobwebs can be so messy, especially when you are running late to something and run into one of these, usually beautiful, webs and have to slow down long…

One thing I have learned over my years of life is how intertwined and interwoven everyone is. Each experience we have, and each person we meet, leads us to someone else or something else. When I look back on the people I have known, people I have met at different points in my life, I’m…

  One of the things that amazes me about this world is how there are so many different climates and how things can grow long into the season that you would think it wouldn’t last. A rose is in full bloom later in the year and it reminds me of how no matter what season…

Imagine yourself on a boat, sitting in the harbor. Are you anxious to set sail? Are you fine with just sitting and observing? Look at the boats around you. They are all different. The concept of moving across the water is the same, no matter what the vessel looks like. Do you ever find yourself…

A nice card game can provide a distraction from the cold and dreary nights. The 52 cards can mix up in so many different ways for hours of fun. I like that there are the same amount of cards as there are weeks in the year. If you have a hard time counting blessings or…
