weird humor

August 18, 2012January 12, 2022 Ellen Lebsock

By now you already know that I have an intense sense of spirituality.  But did you know I also have a WEIRD SENSE of HUMOR? I love this ... and this...  and especially this... I think this is hilarious... and this is more truth than comedy... After all...laughter IS the best medicine and cynicism is… Continue reading weird humor

blessing or curse

August 17, 2012January 12, 2022 Ellen Lebsock

The Spirit of the Lord God is planted in our hearts and grows upward and outward as we trust and believe Him. He builds us into a dwelling place for His Spirit from the inside out. He told Moses..."Look at what I've done for you today: I've placed in front of you Life and Good,  Death… Continue reading blessing or curse

august orchids

August 16, 2012April 27, 2022 Ellen Lebsock

My favorite orchid - that I lovingly call "tiny dancers" - came in from the greenhouse this morning. The Oncidium family is very large and includes many flower varieties. The most common flower variety is often referred to as the "dancing lady". These Oncidium types have thin leaves, pseudobulbs, and branching sprays with flowers colored… Continue reading august orchids

the last word

August 10, 2012January 11, 2022 Ellen Lebsock

"Before we started looking for a new pastor,  I went to a friend who pastors a church in a nearby town and I asked him what we needed to do to find the right man.  He told me the first thing we should do is get our problems straightened out - before we begin to… Continue reading the last word

let it go

August 9, 2012January 11, 2022 Ellen Lebsock

On Monday night, curled up in my big cozy chair trying to make sense of the past 40 days, I plainly heard the Holy Spirit say: "Let go! You have done all you can. Let go completely. Let go in your mind. You are deeply rooted in Me. Let the wind blow where it will.… Continue reading let it go

ask, seek, knock

August 6, 2012January 11, 2022 Ellen Lebsock

If you're a regular visitor here at the Cottage Blog you already know that my posts for the garden and the kitchen have taken a backseat lately. Our focus has been elsewhere.
