Journal the Journey

July 25, 2017 By Verna Bowman 4 Comments

I remember the first time I met my husband – love at first wink.  Well, I remember most of it, but wish I would’ve written my heart down on paper, right then and there within the tender moment. How well do you remember what you were feeling during a significant time in life or even within the last week? I know. Cognitive … [Read more...]

Pastel Darkness

It’s Friday and we want Sunday. . . A two-sided braided path leads to Easter. There's the prettier one - the easier one we take while rushing to the resurrection where we miss reflecting on the one stained with blood tracks and flesh-ripping thorns. The passing of my mom during holy week has always added to the sorrow. And … [Read more...]

His Word – My Hope

Surely I have composed and quieted my soul like a weaned child rests against his mother.
