3:203 – Do You Make Time For Those Who Matter? #faithbites #faithjourney matter Setting I had been working on a project for a while and made arrangements to present it to a larger group. When time came to present, I only got a couple of minutes and most of the group had to leave. While I accomplished some of what […]
3:202 – Shields Up, Red Alert #faithbites #faithjourney Alert Setting I have always loved Star Trek. Maybe it was because my Dad marched on Burbank Studios in the 60s to keep it on the air or because it allows us to think about strange new worlds, new life, and new civilizations. Whatever the reason, I’ve always loved it. In Star […]
3:201 – Are You Hypervigilant for Neighbor? #faithbites #faithjourney hypervigalant My brother and I were talking this afternoon about traits we have in common. A big one is how we are emotionally tuned into people. It helps us understand how they are feeling and let’s us try to seek the underlying reasons of why someone acts the way they do. […]
3:200 – It’s too…. #faithbites #faithjourney too I live in a place where we have lots of change in weather. In the summer, it feels like your face is going to melt. In winter, the air hurts your face. And there are places with much more extreme weather than here. I bring this up as it’s a balmy 96° degrees […]
3:199 – Purge the Clutter #faithbites #faithjourney #clutter Setting Maybe I have a little Marie Kondo in me, but lately, I’ve felt the need to clear out the clutter. If it doesn’t bring me joy, away it goes. Last week we had our city bulk collection and we threw out a ton of stuff from the garage. Could I have […]
3:198 – What Brings You Joy? #faithbites #faithjourney joy Setting Let’s make an assumption that everyone wants to be happy. It may not apply to everybody, but I wanted to level set. If we all want to be happy, what are those things that bring joy? Is it a special food item, time with a loved one, or something else? […]
3:197 – It’s Ok To Change Your Mind #faithbites #faithjourney mind Setting I am stubborn. I can be like a dog with a bone sometimes. It’s not that I try to be but I am this way. We all hold our opinions very strongly and it’s hard to change them. Admitting you were wrong is hard for most, especially when […]
3:196 – Faith Bubbling #faithbites #faithjourney bubbling Setting All of us are all too familiar with the concept of social distancing. We need to stay at least 6 feet away from people. We’ve seen videos of people talking through the glass, standing on opposite sides of the room, and the all too common Zoom call. Have you heard of social […]
3:196 – Happiest Scriptures #faithbites #faithjourney scripture I’ve been feeling out of sorts lately. Maybe it’s the world condition, maybe it’s being home from the pandemic, maybe it’s my mental health meds, maybe I’m just tired. Who knows, but I’ve been down today. So I decided to Google Happiest Scriptures as I find strength and comfort in the Word of […]
3:195 – How Do You See the World? #faithbites #faithjourney world Setting This morning, after taking my dog for a walk, I let him hang out on the deck. He sat there motionless just staring at the world. I wondered what he was looking at. Was it the birds in the trees or the bunnies running around? Maybe he was […]
