‘Sowing #seed’ has always been special for me. To get my hands on seeds of #faith and hope, encouragement and love, meaning and #purpose, and then nurture their growth in the minds and hearts of others is a privilege, a kind of #sacred honor. https://t.co/4rF8lotLyZ

Since we access our world via television, the Internet and have the keyboard at our fingertips these days, it appears “we’re all at risk of collective altar burn.” The latest from my blog here -https://t.co/XrRbuAlqFA

When #courage is needed, when #sadness and grief overwhelm, perhaps the #Psalmist says it best, “The #Lord is near to the #brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.

We are reminded by Tisha B’av mourning there also is suffering attached to our Lord’s true rebuilding of who we are as followers of Jesus (Heb. Yeshua). https://t.co/XIsyMpn6se

Dee’s story is replicated countless times across America and beyond by those who left the #church or the church left them. https://t.co/lEvPT8amae

#Timeouts are also for the #team to determine #strategy and build #morale; it is a great time for family discussion and #collaborative decision making. #spirituallife #Gospel https://t.co/3lZUCjwXbB

#Passover this year began at Saturday sundown, March 27 and continues for 8 days until Sunday, April 4.

Passover, or #Pesach (Hebrew) in Judaism’s tradition harkens back to Moses’ era and the freeing of the Hebrew people from Egyptian slavery.

For me the big thing about Lent is reflecting on how I’m doing with the three great questions I repeatedly ask myself and have challenged others to ask themselves for many years. More at my blog https://t.co/o8kajeg3C1

If #2020 held any lesson, it was that we desperately needed #truth. In a year of supposedly #fakenews, #conspiracytheories, wear-a-mask/don’t-wear-a-mask, it’s just like the flu/it’s worse than the #flu... #generationc #genc https://t.co/NbqKjKkExT

Is there someone in your life, professional, marital, or a trusted and understanding friend to whom you might say, “What do you think? https://t.co/2ThxeNTsWe

“The good news of #Jesus is not that we get a merit badge for being put together and hope that God ignores our failures. We serve God not only with our strengths, but in our weaknesses.” #Lent2021 #holyweek https://t.co/GZagVtECDg

"Bob and I were wanderers in a world we had never seen before. Children wandered the streets trying to sell their older sisters. We were robbed at knife-point in a train station as guards stood by doing nothing. Why were we there?" Blog for the week: https://t.co/ft2zudcoy2

When you believe you deserve honor, get real. The only honor truly worth having comes from above. https://t.co/Tmd9OOdQV1

As we grow into adulthood, integrity can even lead to promotions because ethical leaders are role models. Truthfulness and honesty can be difficult, but it is the way character is established. #amazinggrace https://t.co/I5PAiaECmA

#Perspective is my way of handing out ‘good news tracts’ on a street corner or of standing outside the #Mariners game stadium proclaiming #Jesus on a megaphone. https://t.co/awMMETVL6F

Why is Gage or your own #dog so important to those of us in Life’s Third Age (60+)? Dogs do all kinds of jobs, work on farms, herd sheep and cattle, protect us, help veterans, stay close when we lose someone we #love, and help us find our way home. https://t.co/rs2iMA9PKW

@FLOTUS Thank you for your service to our nation, Melania. May God keep us close.

In response to a look through “My Window,” many of you invited me to share the view from “Your Window” as well (Jan 04, 2021), views that were at times hopeful, difficult, longing, encouraging, intimate, searching and just plain inspiring. https://t.co/wg0T09hP8F

"So, #Lord, #forgive us. Here we are holding #2021 in our ‘freshly washed for 20 seconds in soap and water’ hands. Hopeful as to what can happen going forward." The latest from my blog here - https://t.co/aeIWFUbfF4
