As some of you may have noticed, I have not been posting lately.  It isn't because I don't serve an awesome God, it is because I have a back that does not agree with me even on a good day.  I am hoping to get it re-investigated soon as physical therapy didn't help it.  But until I get that investigated, sitting for long periods of time, or even shorrt ones, is pretty much out of the question. 
Good news?  I will be back, wether I am better or not, on the 17th of January as i will have 2 hours a day of time to waste between school time for my children.  I wishyou all the best and look forward to blogging again in January.  Much love and in His No Slip Grip!

do I mis-use the Bible?

WOW!   This morning I sat and started to read through Ecclesiastes.   I don’t know if the author of Ecclesiastes, Perhaps King Solomon, had a very sarcastic view on life or if he was just babbling.   But I can definitely see how this book could get a lot of people into trouble if they don’t know the full book or continue to read.   There are verses in there that say things like; eat, drink and enjoy the days on earth because they are meaningless, it is good to enjoy your time on earth and do not worry about anything. To get the full meaning of the book, you need to read it all- the true gems are the last two verses.   This book was written by someone (according to my study Bible) that was near the end of his life, he sees man in pursuit of so many things and vainly pursuing hopes and expectations- but faith teaches him that God has ordered all things according to his own purposes and that we need to accept our limitations.   The last two verses are the wr...

Drawn to Drama

I have always been one of those people that gets over committed.   I just do it – I can’t mentally wrap my head around the concept of saying NO.   They are almost all things that I like and believe in and would love to do, but I just don’t have time for it AND for my family.   I don’t have time to do everything for everyone all the time, but I can’t get my head around that.   Some say it is because I have a servant’s heart, but someone brought to my attention the other day that it might be because I like the attention that being so incredibly busy brings me.   I like having people look at me and say – “wow – look at her go”, or “I don’t know how you do it all”…   Now honestly, I don’t know what one it is, or a combination of the big heart and recognition, but I do know that I need to figure it out.   The Bible says that we are to everything with all our heart and unto the Lord and not unto Man .   This is stated in both Colossians 3:23 and Ephesi...

What do you fight about?

I heard a blood curdling scream from the other room, followed by the cries of my other child and then a smack.   I had been sitting at the computer, and leaned my head back closed my eyes, took a deep breath and went to encounter the argument head on.   Apparently my youngest daughter was playing with a stuffed giraffe that my oldest daughter sometimes sleeps with.   Amidst the crying and tears, I was able to formulate the events that took place.   My youngest daughter had gone to the toy room and gotten the giraffe (a green 16” giraffe with brown spots) out of the room and brought it into the other room.   Here, the older sister saw that the coveted giraffe was not in her room and grabbed it from her sister.   The younger one screamed and bit the older sister who then cried and hit the little sister.   As I took another cleansing breath I began dealing with the issue at hand.   It is very difficult to reason with a 2 and 3 year old and let alone ...
