The quiet work God is doing

"The Lord will fight for you; you need only be still." - Exodus 14:14

Some days feel uneventful on the surface, but they carry a quiet undercurrent of God's work. Today is one of those days for me - nothing dramatic, nothing particularly noteworthy, just steady rhythm of home and family life. But as I move through the day, I keep sensing that God was doing something beneath the surface. A softening here. A strengthening there. A gentle nudge toward trust.

It's easy to overlook these subtle movements when we're waiting for big breakthroughs or loud answers. But scripture reminds us that God often works in the stillness, in the pauses, in the moments when we stop striving long enough to notice his presence. Greenville has taught me to appreciate this slower pace - the way the light shifts across the day, the quiet hum of ordinary life, the sense that God is near even when nothing big is happening. 

Maybe today isn't about accomplishing big things. Maybe it is about receiving something - peace, clarity, or simply the reminder that God is fighting battles we don't even see. It's our job to remember in these times that, that is enough. 

Where might God be working quietly in your life right now?

School is OUT!!!

Today was bittersweet for me.  I am happy its summer break, but that means we only have 2 years before we have a MIDDLESCHOOLER!  I cant believe we are that close already!  Both girls had a great day.  I got soaked walking to get Madispn, then the rain slacked off enough for me to have buckets of sweat rolling into my eyes!  It has been so humid here that i sweat as soon as i go outside let alone walk the more than 1/2 mile to her school.  We are starting a new walking track tomorrow... not sure how far but its gonna be fun to see

sad but true

Since the Pledge of Allegiance and The Lord's Prayer are not allowed in most public schools anymore Because the word "God" is mentioned...... A kid in Arizona wrote the attached NEW School prayer: Now I sit me down in school Where praying is against the rule For this great nation under God Finds mention of Him very odd. If Scripture now the class recites, It violates the Bill of Rights. And anytime my head I bow Becomes a Federal matter now. Our hair can be purple, orange or green, That's no offense; it's a freedom scene. The law is specific, the law is precise. Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice. For praying in a public hall Might offend someone with no faith at all. In silence alone we must meditate, God's name is prohibited by the state. We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks, And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks. They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible. To quote the Good Book makes me liable. We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,...
