not satisfied yet

November 10, 2016April 3, 2022 Ellen Lebsock

Because he cleaves to me in love, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name. When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will rescue him and honor him. With long life I will satisfy him, and show him my salvation.… Continue reading not satisfied yet

daily devotions

big enough?

November 1, 2016April 14, 2020 Ellen Lebsock

For the past few weeks, along with our Bible chapters, we've been reading Chuck Swindoll's daily devotions based in the book of Job. Because the "Insight" web page only shows 90 days at a time, we've printed out a few that spoke directly to our circumstances, knowing they would be gone all too soon. I've… Continue reading big enough?

it’s not about me

November 1, 2016April 11, 2020 Ellen Lebsock

God answered Job  our of the whirlwind... God is prominent and preeminent. He is majestic in His power, magnificent in His person, and marvelous in His purposes. How refreshing to step back into the shadows of our own insignificance and give full attention to the greatness of our God! It's all about Him! How unlike… Continue reading it’s not about me

cooking

too much buttermilk

October 25, 2016January 9, 2022 Ellen Lebsock

A few days ago, as we were doing out weekly grocery shopping, I overheard a young homemaker say, "A half gallon of buttermilk! Are you kidding me? I'd never use that much buttermilk. I'll just make something else." Since my new motto is "Just be a good listener...your ears will never get you in trouble." I… Continue reading too much buttermilk

not a horrendous event

October 25, 2016April 10, 2020 Ellen Lebsock

Good Morning and Blessing upon this last week in October! We read the following article during our 'quite time' this morning and since Pastor Jack Hayford writes so.o.o eloquently, on any subject—and since we happen to agree with him on this subject—I'm sharing it with you today. Redeeming Hallowe'en For you were once darkness, but… Continue reading not a horrendous event

effective prayer

unanswered prayers

October 19, 2016May 16, 2021 Ellen Lebsock

At that same time, I begged God: “God, my Master, you let me in on the beginnings, you let me see your greatness, you let me see your might—what god in Heaven or Earth can do anything like what you’ve done! Please, let me in also on the endings, let me cross the river and… Continue reading unanswered prayers
