Waiting Well

October 1, 2015 By Verna Bowman 14 Comments

Don’t we hate to wait? Especially behind the dear old woman who can’t find her wallet in the grocery line, parked tight in a traffic jam, reading old magazines in the doctor’s office, and hanging on the phone while listening to the elevator version of Hey Jude four times.

Do the Word

June 20, 2015 By Verna Bowman 6 Comments

It’s filled half way due to becoming a new dialysis patient who must limit fluids and life.  I guess we’re limited only by the way we view every situation - even when our body betrays us.

New Mercies

December 31, 2014 By Verna Bowman 5 Comments

Great is His faithfulness. His mercies are new every morning. Lamentations 3:22 I’m amazed in the way this verse has helped me face daybreak. No matter what the journey holds, we have a sure testimony that this special Word of God is true for you and for me. I think of the unused collection of days that will make up the … [Read more...]

His Word – My Hope

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