You know that saying garbage in, garbage out? Well, I’m trusting in the flip side of that as I participate in Mega Memory Month, hosted by Ann Kroeker. For the month of January, I’m taking in Romans 5 in the hope that Romans 5 will seep out into my regular…
Scripture memorization
In my previous post, I announced to the blogosphere my intention to dig some new ruts in my thought life using God’s Word. My hope was to get my brain to travel on a line of thought that was true, noble, pure, profitable, and the like. Today, as I picked…
How I love the week between Christmas and New Year’s. Not because I take vacation time (although I love to do that and wish I could do so this week)–but, rather, this is when I reflect on the past year and dream about the one to start. I think about…
Remember those progress reports from elementary school? Many of you now receive these for your own children, but for me, I have to go way back to my own childhood memory archives for a point of reference (a mega memory workout in itself). I vaguely remember the progress reports having…
Day 4 of MMM4 has just begun. So far, so good—I’m working on my verses from Colossians 2:6–15. Here’s what I’ve learned over the past three days (omissions and errors in olive): Therefore as you have received Christ Jesus as Lord, so walk in Him, having been firmly rooted and…
Ah, a new year. How I love January 1. It is the day of new beginnings, with the year stretching before me like a plain, with no obstructions as far as the eye can see. To this unobstructed landscape I’ve been asking God to help me add in the things…

Steady is the way I would describe my MMM3 progress this week. I have made progress . . . in inches perhaps, but progress nonetheless. As Bebo sings in “Where Angels Sleep”: “I’m no farther forward, just farther along . . .” [An aside: I would rather the song used…
My thinks are often not thinking the way I want them to think. My thinks can be whiny and negative and suspicious when I want them to be merry and upbeat and trusting. My thinks are in regular need of Think Camp. Think Camp is like a boot camp for…
January 31 was celebration day for the Mega Memory Month (MMM2) challenge sponsored by Ann Kroeker. Ann had a fabulous blog-style gala, and I missed it. ☹ She even had prizes! (That woman knows how to kick-it up.) I missed the party and the prizes because life did what it…
