I say things I wish I could take back a lot. The burdens for souls prompts me to address a sister in peril and I try to approach the situation with wisdom. No matter how the words are arranged admonishment always tend to come across more like a battering ram and it doesn’t sound as …
When I attended Sunday school as a child, I knew what to do if I ever saw a guy beat up on the side of the road; I was going to put him on the donkey (that I would obviously have with me) and take him to the nearest hotel. I knew this because of …
With Mother’s Day coming up soon it seems like a good time to share with you a little about my lovely and Godly mother. It seems especially fitting today as she is currently having surgery to remove cancer from her leg. Prayers for her would be appreciated. Let’s talk about some lessons that I have …
by Marette Jorgenson In a few weeks, it will be Mother’s Day. If you are a mom, you may enjoy cards and phone calls. If you aren’t a mom, there may be a slight twinge. If your child has left your heart either by choice or by death, the memories and reality causes pain. Mother’s …
