Valuing faith, family and friends. Wednesday, January 25, 2012. Jesus said, “No one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. No, he pours new wine into new wineskins.”. Despair always comes from not trusting God. Fortunately Bob and I are not strangers to trusting God and expecting He will show up. So, we prayed.

http://www.lifepunctuated.com/p/author.html
Valuing faith, family and friends. To my right name with God. Edy is a gift to be treasured. It is my passion to pursue Jesus each and every day. In such a way that I sing ‘whee.’ Don’t think this means every moment of my life is some fantasy of perfection. In fact, it is out of the less-than-perfect moments that my ‘songs of whee’ become glorious melodies of praise exalting the sovereign, living God. His light pours out of my cracked vessel. Apart from Christ I am nothing. As I willingly emerge from my ...

Valuing faith, family and friends. Friday, February 24, 2012. Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked I will depart. I must admit naked babies are adorable. Don't you agree? Early on we encounter rejection. Transparency is risky. I’ve experienced Christians who, when I share my struggles with, use my weakness as a weapon against me. This type of response from close friends forced me to move underground to seek the acceptance, safety, and healing of Jesus. Are you willing to seek God in humility to ...
