2:136 – 500 Days Of Faith #faithbites #faithjourney 500 January 1, 2018 was the day that I decided to take up a friend’s mantle / challenge and share a scripture a day. I did pretty good but missed January 4th. On the 5th, I did two, so I figured I made up. Within three weeks, the daily scripture turned to […]
2:131 – Don’t Sweat The Small Stuff…It’s All Small Stuff. #faithbites #faithjourney sweat What a weekend! Camping with the girl scouts, horseback riding, dinner with my brother celebrating his graduation, an impromptu early birthday party for my youngest, and swimming with family. This was a fun filled, exhausting, 36 hours. The one thing that kept popping in my head was […]
2:122 – Would You Turn Down A 3 Piece Bagel? #faithbites #fathjourney bagel My eldest wanted to make a bagel for breakfast all by herself. The last bagel in the bag, had one half broken and the other half whole. So three pieces. She snubbed her noise at it. I told her it would taste the same. I toasted it. […]
2:112 – How Do You Pray? #faith bites #faithjourney how If you’ve read #faithbites more than once, you will notice that I also end with a prayer. For some, prayer is as easy as saying hi to a friend.

2:92 – Depression Comes From Nowhere….Sometimes #faithbites #faithjourney depression So you’re sitting at your desk, doing work, everything is going well, then BAM, a wave of depression and anxiety hits you. Nothing really happened, nothing you can hang your hat on. Just hit with dread, depression, and anxiety. A friend told me that if you name the anxiety it becomes […]
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 […]
2:71 – Does Telling the Same Story Again Get Boring? #faithbites #faithjourney story Most of us like to hear a good story. Some like me, like to tell a good story. When you are on crutches or have an injury, you get asked the same questions, over and over again. How did it happen? What does it feel like? What […]
2:55 – So Many Messages, So Little Time #faithbites #faithjourney messages Today was a pretty momentous day at Trinity Lutheran today.
