Bathsheba's Children: December 2008
http://bathshebaschildren.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 31, 2008. One of the toughest lessons to learn in this life is that your personal feelings are often irrelevant. I really mean that. Of course, there are some situations and relationships in which your hurt feelings are the. Relevant aspect involved. But those situations are very close to home and heart, and for most of us, a great deal of our lives are lived beyond our most intimate circles. Maybe you do this all of the time? That offends me sometimes, even though I know and accept t...

Bathsheba's Children: May 2009
http://bathshebaschildren.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 28, 2009. The Ecclesiastes of Housekeeping. A riff on Ecclesiastes 1:2-11. All this work is meaningless.”. What does a mother gain from all her labor under her roof? One child goes off to school and one child remains home,. Yet lunch-making endures forever. The dirty dishes rise in the sink, and the dirty dishes recede,. Yet they always hasten back to the stack, in need of scrubbing once more. The dust settles on furniture and floor. Before it kicks up into the air;. Links to this post.

http://bathshebaschildren.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 15, 2009. Thank God for the Fleas. Consider it pure joy, my brothers, wheneve you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.". Following are some excerpts from the book that I haven't been able to get out of my head. We pick up the story as Corrie and her sister Betsie have been assigned their permanent beds at the Ravensbruck labor camp.

Bathsheba's Children: June 2009
http://bathshebaschildren.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 25, 2009. There are no deep insights into Scripture in this post. Just something that I need to get off my chest. If you are a woman, you more than likely enjoy having friends. In fact, I think it is pretty safe to say that most ordinary women find friendship to be quite necessary, and will suffer if they find themselves lonely and isolated. Shame Shame. Shame. The town I live in happens to be the home of an Air Force base. And I've had the privilege. That is a shame and a pity. I mean, we...

Bathsheba's Children: Bad Makes Me Mad, Not Sad
http://bathshebaschildren.blogspot.com/2009/07/bad-makes-me-mad-not-sad.html
Sunday, July 19, 2009. Bad Makes Me Mad, Not Sad. I'm not glad I'm mad,. I would be glad if I was sad. But I'm such a cad, I get mad. I'd prefer to be glad, but every silly fad. That makes the church look bad. Makes me mad, mad, mad. What is a girl to do? I'll tell you what I do, I get mad. Well, that is putting it lightly. I have internal temper tantrums. I have this niggling feeling, though, that he in in possession of the more appropriate response. July 19, 2009 at 8:17 PM. July 28, 2009 at 11:00 AM.

Bathsheba's Children: If You Don' Have Nuthin'
http://bathshebaschildren.blogspot.com/2009/08/if-you-don-have-nuthin.html
Friday, August 28, 2009. If You Don' Have Nuthin'. If you don't have nuthin' nice to say, don't say nuthin' at all. I'm not sure if my Mom ever actually dispensed this advice to me, or if I only heard it from Thumper in the movie Bambie. But either way, there are times when advice is worth heeding. Alas, for me, now is such a time. I don't have anything nice to say, and that is why you haven't heard me saying anything at all on this blog. Do not hide Your face from me; Do not turn Your servant away in an...

Sunday, November 15, 2009. It turns out I have a lot of nice things to say lately. I just don't have any time at all to get on this blog and say them.

Bathsheba's Children: Bathsheba's What?
http://bathshebaschildren.blogspot.com/2007/09/whats-in-name.html
Saturday, September 15, 2007. Bathsheba's Children. What in the world is that about? Only the greatest King ever to rule ancient Israel. Why did God choose to reward Bathsheba with such a son? Because God is better and more gracious than we can begin to imagine, that's why. And I'd like to explore that concept in-depth. I'm looking forward to reading more of your blog in the future. December 2, 2007 at 9:48 PM. Have a great Sunday! May 4, 2008 at 9:12 AM. I found your blog thru a google search related to...

Baby Steps of Faith: Praise His Name
http://babystepsofaith.blogspot.com/2013/11/praise-his-name.html
Monday, November 11, 2013. What does it mean to you to "praise God? I read something this morning that struck me and kind of sharpens the focus a little in the way I'll pray from here on. It said it's telling God "how great He is and why you think so." I should tell Him why I think He's so great. I like that. It's very personal because I have many reasons why I think He's so great. Saying, "But enough about me, let's talk about you. What do you think of me? Thank you, Mel. I needed this one. Peace for th...
