Overcome the Overwhelm

September 14, 2024 By Verna Bowman 7 Comments

To the September one who says “I’m overwhelmed” – I hear you.  I am you. This is the month when everything begins.  All. At. Once.  And so, usual life needs to be pushed in between the lines of a Fall schedule that reads can’t rest till I do list that you’re flooded with.

Though and Yet

August 13, 2024 By Verna Bowman 2 Comments

It’s easy to skip over old books in the Bible where we don’t expect to find an answer to our today stuff.  But if we glean through the rubble, we'll find jewels.
