The Real Me: July 2000
http://justplaingenevieve.blogspot.com/2000_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 14, 2000. 8220;The LORD who delivered me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the bear. Will deliver me from the hand of Goliath." (1 Sam 17:37). I need Goliath faith. I am faced with an insurmountable obstacle. With an entire nation’s future at stake, or so it seems. I pick up my armor,. But it is way too heavy and about ten sizes too big. So I will lay down every defense. And seek to meet this foe with different weapons. I need David’s obedience. I’ll step out into the cool stream.

Burned down the castle, kept the tiara. The LORD who delivered me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the bear. Will deliver me from the hand of Goliath.” (1 Sam 17:37). I need Goliath faith. I am faced with an insurmountable obstacle. With an entire nation’s future at stake, or so it seems. I pick up my armor,. But it is way too heavy and about ten sizes too big. So I will lay down every defense. And seek to meet this foe with different weapons. I need David’s obedience. I will face my Goliath.

The Real Me: February 2000
http://justplaingenevieve.blogspot.com/2000_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 27, 2000. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed,. You can say to this mountain, “Move from here to there” and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you. (Matt. 17:20). Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. (Heb. 11:1). That the sun pulls itself over the horizon. In spite of my believing that it will or won’t. And there are mornings. That I’m awakened by the tapping of raindrops on my window. So much of the time.

The Real Me: This Road
http://justplaingenevieve.blogspot.com/2000/05/this-road.html
Sunday, May 28, 2000. The road is long. And it seems like forever will come and go before I reach the end. The road is hard. And my feet are tired from this uneven path that seems to go on without relief. The road is steep. And my back aches from the strain and the pain is becoming unbearable. The road is dark. And I cannot even see the path to know where to place my next step. The road is unfamiliar. And I fear I’ve lost my way, even my sense of direction seems disoriented. The road is empty.

The Real Me: March 2006
http://justplaingenevieve.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 26, 2006. Is it just me. Or does life feel like. It's running out of control? With each wild turn. I'm sliding further off the edge of the seat. On this roller coaster ride. That keeps going faster and faster. I question the security of this flimsy little strap. That's supposed to be holding me in. Noticing just in time that I'm about to drop. 50 feet in 2.5 sec's so I have an instant to grimace. And close my mouth so everything inside stays, well, inside. I am crazy enough to go. As it nea...

The Real Me: October 2005
http://justplaingenevieve.blogspot.com/2005_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 21, 2005. It's a new day. It's not yesterday or tomorrow (yet). But it's new nonetheless. There will not be another one quite exactly like this one. This day is special. It's not an occasion, a holiday, or a vacation day. But it's the only time in all of eternity that this day will be here,. So i'm celebrating it. Tomorrow i'll start all over.

The Real Me: My Defenses
http://justplaingenevieve.blogspot.com/2000/02/my-defenses.html
Wednesday, February 23, 2000. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. (Gal. 5:22-23a). That makes me get defensive at the first sign of conflict,. Or that makes me pull back when there’s a chance I might feel pain? That causes me to withdraw into my own little world. If I don’t feel accepted in the big world,. Or that makes me lash out in anger when I feel insecure? That makes me judge my brother without cause,. For I have ...

The Real Me: January 2000
http://justplaingenevieve.blogspot.com/2000_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 31, 2000. I’m down here in the valley. Looking up into the hills with longing. There is shelter there -. Shade from the scorching sunlight. And cover from the rain and storms. There are fresh springs of water. To relieve my aching thirst. And trees that are heavy laden with fruit. Always ready to harvest,. So that I would not feel these hunger pains again. It is the hills that bring refuge to so many,. How my heart longs to be among them. Yet I remain here in this valley. How is it -.

The Real Me: A Miracle-Promise
http://justplaingenevieve.blogspot.com/2000/06/miracle-promise.html
Thursday, June 29, 2000. I doubt that Moses. Had any idea that the waters would divide. To unveil the chosen path that God ordained for that day. All Moses had was a miracle-promise clenched tightly to his heart. That God would guide his steps. And carry him safely from captivity to freedom. I doubt that Abram. Could even imagine the birth of a child,. And certainly not countless children. As many as sand on the seashore or speckled stars in the sky. That God would be faithful to remember His promise.
