Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights. Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts. Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light. Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens. […]

Civil War Sesquicentennial Commemoration
Predicted showers were short. Instead of a hindrance to the event, storm clouds became a perfect backdrop. Then suddenly a crack like thunder sounded—FROM JUST BESIDE ME! I turned to see a smoking cannon. I was shocked. We were standing by a field witnessing the reenactment of a Civil War Battle for the 150th commemoration […]
Mission Accomplished
My time in Korea was absolutely fantastic! Thank you all for your support and prayers. From working on calendars and Basic Seminar materials in the office to promoting character and encouraging (and being encouraged by!) homeschool families abroad, the six and a half weeks rushed by much too quickly. It was an incredible experience to […]
I Don’t Have Time!
As knowledge and opportunity increase, time does not! As a matter of fact the time left before "the great and dreadful day of the Lord” decreases! The result now is, very understandably: stress. Stressful times are times to refocus. As in any other situation, our peace, personally, in the end times, will rest on the […]
Blessed with a loving Mother
As we sang “Count your many blessings” yesterday in church, I could not help but thank the Lord for my mom! Her selfless love to lay a solid biblical foundation by homeschooling is a blessing that we as her children cannot thank her for enough. And now her constant support has encouraged us like nothing […]
Birding Buffalo Calf, Part IV: Arrivals and Departures
April showers bring May flowers—and May Warblers! Like the Vireos, Warblers are small treetop birds better identified by voice than vision. And today’s elusive Tennessee Warbler was a first for me! At first it was only a voice in the woods. But, as He loves to do, the Lord answered a specific prayer and brought […]
National Day of Prayer
Yesterday, May 5, was the National Day of Prayer. Two verses the Lord gave were particularly encouraging to me . . . “When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth . . .” and “By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted . . .” (Proverbs 11:10-11). Whether it is through […]
A Real Reason for Rejoicing
“Do not let the wise glory in his wisdom; and do not let the mighty glory in his might; do not let the rich glory in his riches; but let him who glories glory in this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am Jehovah, doing kindness, justice and righteousness in the earth; for […]
Pic of the Month: April ‘11
Spring Overlook Having spent this entire month in South Korea taking photography sorties on a regular basis, it was not easy to choose a pick from the sizeable archive. But I narrowed it down to this one because of the steps that led up to it’s creation. It was late in the afternoon, and I […]
Turkey Hunt!
This was no normal turkey hunt. In fact, there is no such thing as a normal turkey hunt around here, because none of us had ever turkey hunted before! However, a friend from church happens to be a real pro, and out of his overflowing generosity he asked if any of us would be interested […]
