Hey, Neighbor
When I was little and always wanted to go hang out at my friend Jessie’s house, my mom used to quote Proverbs 25:17 to me: “Let your foot be seldom in your neighbor's house, lest he have his fill of you and hate you.” That’s a pretty savage thing to tell a 10-year-old but, then again, my mom can be quite the Tiger Mom sometimes! I used to retort, “Jessie’s not my neighbor, she lives all the way in Woodbury!” I thought it was a pretty good counter point, but I never won that argument.
Messy Emotions And The Security Of Jesus
If the heart is deceitful, what place do emotions have in the lives of believers? I have been taught that my emotions are fickle and can not be trusted. I felt that if I just had a greater belief in God then my negative emotions would disappear — but actually, attempting to spiritualize my emotions away by simply praying or reading the Bible ends up stunting both emotional and spiritual growth.
How To Make A Biscuit
It was Biscuit Saturday and I was very excited (and hungry). For almost a year, every Saturday I would try a new recipe in hopes of landing our favorite. On this particular Biscuit Saturday, the biscuits looked extremely promising. They had a good rise, an enticing golden-brown hue on top, and smelled delicious. My family had already started to eat by the time I sat down, and I was surprised to see my husband had only taken one bite of his biscuit.
