Recipe: Filet Mignon and Steamed New Potatoes

by

Peace family, how about something delicious that isn’t too difficult? My friend Tram and I had a wonderful meal of grass-fed organic steak, steamed new potatoes (dug from my family’s garden) with garlic butter and parsley, and salad! I really enjoyed it, and she did, too! For the filet mignon, if it is about 1 […]

I Dreamed A Dream

by

Peace family, when was the last time that you really let yourself imagine and dream? I tend to worry more than I should, but I don’t always take time to think about the positive “what ifs” and things that I can do to make the world around me more beautiful, more encouraging, more fun, and […]

Thanking to Surprise

by

Peace family, what unusual thing or person are you thankful for today? Last weekend, I got to take a teenager to the circus who had never been before, and we loved it! From the singing of the national anthem (complete with a girl riding an elephant, proudly waving the American flag) to the last colorful, […]

Are you Sam, or Frodo?

by

Peace family, right now, do you think of yourself more as a Sam, or as a Frodo? I know that not everyone loves Lord of the Rings as much as I do, but I’ve been thinking about Sam and Frodo’s friendship, and about how we all need those kinds of authentic relationships, even though sometimes […]

When Believing is Hard

by

Peace family, what do you do when it feels like the truths that God says about you and your future aren’t true? Do you ever question God’s love for you, and his character? Every believer wrestles through doubt sometimes, so don’t feel alone. There are at least a few practical methods you can use to help yourself as you […]

Wonders of Space

by

Peace family, when was the last time you were really in awe of something? Something magnificent and something spectacular, something that made you feel small in the grand scheme of things? In the last few days, we’ve had the chance to look at the first high-quality images of Pluto, and we’ve also celebrated the 46th anniversary of […]

Loving the Lost

by

Peace family, how do we keep a heart that is soft and has compassion for others? With so many examples in the news of people sinning and glorying in it, one of my friends was disgusted. He said, “Kat, when I see people doing these things, instead of feeling compassion for them, I just feel […]

“For God is not a God of disorder, but of peace- as in all the congregations of the Lord’s people.”        — I Corinthians 14:33 (NIV)

Look for the Rose

by

Peace Family, over the weekend, I stumbled across an older French song called, “Cherche la Rose,” that encouraged me to “look for the rose.” In it, the singer names multiple situations where hope would be very difficult to come by, but always comes back to repeating “search for the rose.” We all know the phrase, “every rose […]

The Greatest Generation

by

Peace family, for several days now, I’ve been thinking about the World War II generation: the guts, the determination to do what’s right, the survival in the face of suffering, the perseverance, the self-reliance, the faith, and the hope. In such a bleak-looking time with Hitler murdering millions of people, the Nazis taking over multiple countries, […]
