This is a post from Fay Rowe’s, daughter, Gillian Fritzsche. The other day, I was driving in the mid-afternoon to pick up my children from school. I turned a corner and started driving down a small hill. As I drove, I saw a mama pushing a stroller up the hill on the side walk. Her … More He Delights In You
I first wrote about this back in 2009, but today I felt I needed to read it again. For me. I’d been reading Bent Hope; a street journal, by Tim Huff. This book, which tells stories of his encounters with homeless people on the streets of Toronto and elsewhere over a span of twenty years, … More Hearts and Hope

Abraham’s seed, now … More Papyrus and Pitch

The theme of the week long event had to do with ships and pirates. One day the “captain” was talking to the children about God sightings. Referring to different things … More God Sightings
Psalm 91 is one of my favorite psalms. True, this could be said of almost any of them, but I really do love this one. It talks about the secret place of safety provided for us “under the shadow of the Almighty.” I have heard several sermons based on this scripture, and have been frustrated … More At Home in the Secret Place
He cried, “My God, My God, why have you forsaken Me?” That was Jesus on the cross, quoting Psalm 22. In this Psalm, David spent some time bemoaning his state. He was in trouble; people were mocking him and his trust in God; he felt weak, physically and emotionally. He cried out to God, saying … More Answered
