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

September 16, 2016April 14, 2020 Ellen Lebsock

ARE YOU HAPPY? ARE YOU REALLY HAPPY? While scrolling through Facebook today I came upon an article that touched my imagination. I want to share it with you, with one caveat—it comes from a secular point of view, and I don't accept that POV for myself or for you, my readers.  So.o.o... the secular common… Continue reading are you really happy?

happy now?

July 22, 2016April 14, 2020 Ellen Lebsock

Today there was an opportunity to have a miserable day. Ever have one of those? We all have moments of anxiety, depression or fear. Each is a form of unnecessary suffering.
