Can You Train a Pigeon? As I sit at my desk, glancing out the window… … I am struck by the beautiful view that has been my view since we moved out of London. I am first to admit that I generally don’t want nature in my home, but I love our view and there […]
Read MoreMoses’ 11th Hour God
Moses’ 11th Hour God Over the years, we have seen some struggles. Many. In speaking with a dear friend, who is going through a very difficult situation, I shared these thoughts with her. I am sharing them, here as well, in case it would be of any help for others. Something to keep in mind… […]

I have seen how the division caused by a misplaced word or an outright attack, has seemingly won. The ‘enemy’ must be gleefully rubbing his hands […]

I am struggling tonight to forgive someone. Someone that is close to us and should know better but someone that has deeply wounded us. More to the point, they may have deeply wounded our child.
