One Voice: June 2013
http://linda-onevoice.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
I am just one voice listening to just ONE VOICE. Sunday, June 23, 2013. China: One Big Country and Three Simple Prayers. Soon after God and I came to an agreement that I would, indeed, to do the job he asked me to do, he raised the bar. No big surprise there, God does that kind of thing. But I still shook my fist and pounded the table and said, "Really God? Our first agreement wasn't enough? I imagine him crossing his arms and leaning back on his throne as he chuckles and shakes his head. Prayer #2. ...

One Voice: Choosing to Experience the Journey
http://linda-onevoice.blogspot.com/2014/05/choosing-to-experience-journey.html
I am just one voice listening to just ONE VOICE. Friday, May 2, 2014. Choosing to Experience the Journey. I am uncomfortable with extravagance. Somehow it makes me feel guilty, but that post is for later. Suffice it to say, I have a journey ahead of me that, given current circumstances, makes no sense and could justifiably be questioned. I am going to England then China. We have three days to experience England. It's impossible. I want to see it all. Do everything. I could easily be at the cliffs wonderi...

The Ir Family: June 2012
http://theirfamily.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 30, 2012. So today I found a lost item I didn't know was lost, it was stinky and gross! What did I learn, well for starters, I need to slow down, think, and remember. Let's just say it could have been a lot worse and I'm happy that what was lost is found! I am not going to lose my mind, and you know if we do lose a jacket here or there I might not even notice or care! This was a birthday party we had for Chris's sister Cindi. We ate great food, ice-cream cake and had delicious beverages!

The Ir Family: September 2009
http://theirfamily.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 25, 2009. So I am really falling behind on this blogging thing! With the kids in school it seem like I should have more time than ever, I don't know where it goes. Maybe I am not using my time very well? I feel like I am busy all the time? What's new with us? The kids really like school thus far, they each have amazing teachers. The peace I have everyday knowing they will be well taken care of is wonderful! Wednesday, September 9, 2009. We have got dirt! Yesterday was the kid's first da...

One Voice: February 2014
http://linda-onevoice.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
I am just one voice listening to just ONE VOICE. Monday, February 24, 2014. Confession of a Love Affair. A friend recently asked how my spiritual life is. I loved the question. We were talking about work. My first response was that I am much more dependent on God than ever. True, and a great stability in my life. But there is an even bigger change. I'm in a love affair. A full tilt, deeper every year, can't get out of it and don't even want to love affair. I delight in my love. My love delights in me.

One Voice: Staying Calm When Life Seems Impossible
http://linda-onevoice.blogspot.com/2014/02/staying-calm-when-life-seems-impossible.html
I am just one voice listening to just ONE VOICE. Thursday, February 13, 2014. Staying Calm When Life Seems Impossible. There they stood like ducks on a firing range. Only it was Pharaoh and 600 chariots breathing down their backside. The Red Sea and certain destruction the only other choice. The newly released slaves had no way to defend themselves and nowhere to run. Have you been there? God has other plans for you and me. The Lord will fight for you. Just stay calm. Ex. 14:14. It is a great way to read...

One Voice: July 2010
http://linda-onevoice.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
I am just one voice listening to just ONE VOICE. Thursday, July 29, 2010. Today, I flew through Chicago. I sat next to a soldier who had just finished his tour of duty. It was a long year," he said. And now his journey home. Iraq, Kuwait, Germany, Maine, Indiana, Chicago. A travel weary young man, yet we had a pleasant talk. As the wheels touched the tarmac of his hometown I said, "Welcome home.". He nodded and a smile welled like a natural spring to light his whole being. "Thanks.". It was a privilege.

One Voice: October 2013
http://linda-onevoice.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
I am just one voice listening to just ONE VOICE. Saturday, October 5, 2013. Losing Face. Witness love. I've been angry this week. A lot. Our China managers are here for training and business strategy. We are writing new contracts and tightening what our manager calls leakage. I have some incredible and exciting miracles to share with you, but this is on my heart today. It makes me think about my relationship with God. How often I put on a good face then take what I want and use it for my own pleasure?

One Voice: I Don't Want Life to Be Easy
http://linda-onevoice.blogspot.com/2013/11/i-dont-want-life-to-be-easy.html
I am just one voice listening to just ONE VOICE. Sunday, November 10, 2013. I Don't Want Life to Be Easy. Life has been a challenge this week but I've been thinking this:. I don't want life to be easy. If life were easy. I wouldn't know Jesus. The fellowship. Like I do now. If life were easy. I would not recognize the wounded ache. In eyes that cross my path. If life were easy. I would be entirely too full of myself. If life were easy. I would care less. About, things, about people, about God. Just follo...
