Wisdom’s Children

“The world is full of ‘experts’.” Henry Blackaby caught my attention with this opening line in my daily devotional book.   He wrote this book in 1998 (updated in 2006). He probably did not consult “Google” or the internet before writing this statement.  In fact, what was the status of the internet in 1998? Only

A Picture is Worth 1,000 Words

You’ve often heard it said — “a picture is worth 1,000 words”.  And it sure seems true. Wikipedia’s definition: this is a saying which means that complex and sometimes multiple ideas can be conveyed by a single still image — one which conveys its meaning or essence more effectively than a mere verbal description. Yeah, ok, I

Let Sleeping Dogs Lie

Ok, I agree with that if we are talking about animals – dogs or cats etc.  But I suspect you have heard this as often as I have in another vein – the meaning was “let’s leave things as they are”, especially to avoid restarting or rekindling an argument or conflict.

True Confessions of a Chocoholic

OK, OK….I confess….I was really searching the internet for (and found) “The Healthiest Candy Bars, Ranked by Nutritionists”.  I was preparing for a trip with a friend and wanted some “healthy” snacks, but I had just come from the grocery store after searching through rows and shelves of “healthy” snack bars — all of which
