Yesterday, I read something that I couldn’t get out of my head... “If your cup is always full of tea, there is probably no room for oil” Then today, my Bible reading included this: Psalm 133 How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity! 2 It is like precious oil… Continue reading Is your cup full of tea or oil?

What is Wisdom?
Let's read Job 28. I recommend reading in its entirety (copied below), but if you are not going to do that, at least scroll to read the last few verses.

God spoke to you HOW?
God spoke to me in the form of a math equation the other day (I majored in math, I’m weird already - I know)…..BUT before you write me off as crazy, hear my point. God speaks to us in ANY way that we are willing to listen. And sometimes, He speaks to us in ways… Continue reading God spoke to you HOW?
Confessions of an Introvert
Confessions of an Introvert I googled "root words of introvert" and this is what I got: Introvert comes from Latin intro-, "inward," and vertere, "turning."

Devotion: Unconditional Love vs. Boundaries
Unconditional Love and Boundaries... The two almost seem like polar opposites. We seem to think that unconditional love means love without boundaries. But that's not the case. In order to deeply love someone, there has to be boundaries. Love with no boundaries leads to resentment and pain, for one person or both.

A Vision Made New
This blog used to have a different name. It was once called Wine and Weekends. This blog used to be about me, about my life, about “things” I had and “things” I did.
