next thing you know

Next Thing You Know

VineWords Devotions and More

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. ~2 Corinthians 5:17 ESV Change usually happens gradually, but sometimes, it comes instantaneously. Then, the next thing you know, we have choices to make.  That special guy takes you to your favorite spot, then suddenly drops to one knee and opens a velvet-covered box, exposing a diamond ring. Next thing you know, you are sending out wedding invitations and … Continue reading →

The Body Cares for Each Other

The Body Cares for Each Other

VineWords Devotions and More

That way there should be no division in the body; instead, all the parts mutually depend on and care for one another.  ~ 1 Corinthians 12:25 Voice I soon found out what happens when the body cares for each other.  Morning Anxiety One morning, my nerves and anxiety surfaced like a boiling pot of oatmeal threatening to spill over on my stove. Later that week, I was scheduled to have a biopsy for a rare inflammatory disease. With my husband … Continue reading →

distractions and rumble strips

Distractions and Rumble Strips

VineWords Devotions and More

But Martha was distracted with much serving. And she went up to him and said, “Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her then to help me.” But the Lord answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things, but one thing is necessary. Mary has chosen the good portion, which will not be taken away from her.”   ~Luke 10:40-42 ESV Distractions and rumble strips. Dan was on … Continue reading →

Sink or Swim

Sink or Swim

VineWords Devotions and More

As she was holding me up as I lay back in the water, the first thing she noticed was how tense I was. I needed to relax. And if I didn’t, this wasn’t going to go far. However, the more I thought about trying to relax…

The Reward of Friendship

making a list

Making a List

VineWords Devotions and More

Then they plotted among themselves, “Let’s choose a leader and go back to Egypt!” ~Numbers 14:4 NLT Making a list and checking it twice—or three or four times—enhances productivity. I’m the king of list-making. I’ve been making lists since I was young and never outgrew the practice. Since I have a good memory, jotting down things is probably unnecessary, but I feel more confident when I do. I jot down what I plan to accomplish weekly on my calendar—of which … Continue reading →

fitted together perfectly

Fitted Together Perfectly

VineWords Devotions and More

Under his direction, the whole body is fitted together perfectly. ~Ephesians 4:16 NLT Sixteen was a special number, but not because I had a sweet sixteen party. When I performed the calculation, I had belonged to sixteen churches. Like any other child who doesn’t have a choice about where they attend church, as a preacher’s kid, I didn’t either. And since my dad didn’t stay at any one place long, I had been in five churches by the time I … Continue reading →

just a little dab will do

Just a Little Dab Will Do

VineWords Devotions and More

My friend, be on guard. For just like yeast causes a loaf of bread to rise uncontrollably, a “little” bit of sin can take control of our lives, our homes, our marriages, or our attitudes when we are not careful. A little dab of sin will do the same to our lives as a little dab of yeast will affect a loaf of bread…
