another missionary-poem post

less heat, more fire… or, less fire, more heat?
August is almost finished already! How about this for being so late with July’s “less”? I’ve been trying to think of something else to talk about, besides just the One Word “discoveries”, and finally this has come to mind: it’s … Continue reading
And that is life!

Ottawa is not my home?
Lyn. Her name is Lyn, and she seemed to think it was a little strange, that I wanted to know the name of my grocery cashier. I’ve decided to spell it with one ‘n’, because she said it was very … Continue reading
they put me to shame…
In thinking over how the word “forgiveness” may have played out for me yesterday, I guess it would be at the Ladies’ Bible Study, which I still attend at our old church: the ladies have “forgiven” us for leaving to … Continue reading
Don’t cringe!
“Happiness is not the goal of life; happiness is a by-product of living out your purpose.” “The greatest things in life aren’t things.” Great quotes to start off Lent (the 40 days before Easter)! I wonder if some of you … Continue reading
