Sin – in every form – is a lack of trust in God. Every one. It is saying, "God, I know better than you on this one… I’m gonna do it MY way!" Think about it… Stealing is not trusting God to provide. Fear is not trusting that God is in control. Gossip is not…

What is sin?
Whoa. That just looks heavy. I don’t intend for it to be. We’ll see where this blog goes. I have been thinking about grace and sin and righteousness and all that a bunch recently… and had some interesting thoughts to share… and perhaps get some feedback on through the little comment feature here in blog-dom….
The Signs of Little Boys
I love looking around and randomly seeing signs of my awesome little boys. 🙂 I was just outside cleaning some stuff up and noticed a little measuring cup. For the entire winter it has been out on the other side of the house – neglected by little boys who don’t care about their stuff. And…
Various Bloggities (and cool Bible Babes…)
Sorry for the prolonged abscence. My brain has not ceased to function… quite the opposite. We are (I think) in the beginning stage of some major transitions here… more on that later… but, for now… some thoughts from the past couple days: God’s Power A friend of ours lives in Afghanistan.

Just Not Right…

Some things…

Sad…
Was on my way to a meeting tonight and heard on the news of a set of triplets (4 years old!!!) who died in a house fire… their younger sister was critically injured and their older sister (15) was the babysitter. My heart just sank when I heard that. I don’t know them at all……
