2:101 – I’m Ignorant AND I want to Learn #faithbites #faithjourney ignorant When I learned about Leonardo da Vinci, I wanted to be like him. I wanted to be a renaissance man. Someone who excelled in so many different fields and was seen as an expert in just about everything. That was before I realized how much new knowledge there […]
2:97 – Ugh is the Word Of The Day #faithbites #faithjourney UGH To quote an old theme song, “You take the good, you take the bad, you take them both and there you have The Facts of life, the facts of life”. Are you singing it? Today, rather this weekend, was very much like that. Kids not listening, too much […]
2:86 – Did I Break My Vow #faithbites #faithjourney vow What is a Vow? In noun form it means a solemn promise. In verb form it means solemnly promise to do something. For Lent, many people make a Vow to give something up. I made a vow to give up debating politics, memes, religion, and more. The reason was I […]
2:79 – Angry Energizer Bunny #faithbites #faithjourney #energizer Do you remember the commercial from the 90s and beyond of the Energizer Bunny. He keeps going and going and going. They used that ad to prove that their batteries lasted longer than anyone else’s batteries. I started wondering what how the Energizer Bunny felt after he truly kept going and going […]
2:78 – I Can Do All Things…. #faithbites #faithjourney things In life sometimes we think we can do things that we can’t and other times we think we can’t do things that we can. When we have faith, we can do all things through Christ. My eldest was worried and scared about her 3rd grade project in the living musueum […]
2:76 – Snarky Parents, Snarky Jesus #faithbites #faithjourney snarky I don’t know about you, but I like to make my own choices. I like to try new things and go out and get them done. Sometimes, ok more than I would like to admit, those things may end badly for me or just not turn out the way I thought […]
2:73 – Just Be Kind #faithbites #faithjourney kind Sometimes I feel like my parents must have felt when I was little. “How many times do I have to say the same thing before you get it?”. I say this as I write another #faithbite about being kind. As part of the Lenten season, I gave up trying to change people’s […]
2:67 – Just Do What You Are Told. It’s Easier #faithbites #faithjourney told Today hasn’t been a good parenting day. Maybe it’s because the kids have had too much family time with everyone being sick or maybe it’s cabin fever, who knows. But let’s just say, pretty much ever time we asked the kids to do something, it was a […]
2:61 – Hypocrisy Is Real #faithbites #faithjourney hypocrisy I’m far from perfect. I’ve said thing I regret and made generalizations that are just plain wrong. When I scroll through social media and see good Christian people sharing memes and photos that are the exact opposite of “What Would Jesus Do?”. This is hypocrisy even if it’s not meant. This is […]
2:57 – Hang Together or Hang Separately #faithbites #faithjourney Hang What do you do when you are mad, angry, or upset? Do you try to find people who will help you, or do you want to run and hide? For me, and many of us, our natural instinct is to isolate ourselves so we can work on our feelings and […]
