Old Prayers and New

Blue Cotton Memory

It was a Muddy and Henry Day. It was a day filled with the playground, swings, monkey bars, grilled cheese at the kitchen counter, quiet time with a stack of books on the porch instead of naps, gravity discussions and illustrations with one uncle, girlfriend discussions with another uncle, counting by tens to 100, red-green-yellow light games – and the … Continue reading →

Dare to Trust to Hope

Blue Cotton Memory

“But do not trust to hope. It has forsaken these lands.” ~ J. R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings, Eomer Many today echo Eomer’s thoughts from The Lord of the Rings, thoughts from a man whose country was so upside down, its leadership behaving in ways foreign to its history, its core values, its code of honor. He didn’t … Continue reading →

America’s Born Again Journey

Blue Cotton Memory

Stirring up the crunch for Blueberry Crunch, I thought about America and her soul journey. In 1620, a boatload of born-again Christians landed creating a colony called Plymouth. Born-again Christians bringing a radical faith to a new land called America, where they could worship their Savior without fear of persecution. That boatload of born-again Christians converted this land mass – … Continue reading →

Socks for 5; Prayer for 9

Blue Cotton Memory

I drive my boys nuts telling them stories they’ve heard and heard – and I thought, well, I want to tell this story again. My new daughter-in-law says it’s a family trait, one she’s getting used to. I can’t wait until one day, she becomes a storyteller, too. Today, I want somebody to hear this story again – because it … Continue reading →

Powder Puff Ministry

Blue Cotton Memory

 “God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day.”~ Psalm 46:5 (I’m not going to qualify or quantify my story by trying to prove to you that my brokenness was worthy of God’s intervention – I am just going to tell you of the part of the journey of one of God’s girls … Continue reading →

the old man in the garden

Blue Cotton Memory

(I’ve been in the garden this week – thinning, transplanting, planting anew. God met me there, in my garden, letting me take care of things that need planting right now, things that need extra care and attending to – and me, the plantings, we all have needed the refreshing waters, the resting before the growing.  I’ve been reviewing my writing … Continue reading →

Hope Whispers

Blue Cotton Memory

Remembering the blessings God has given is hope whispering, reminding – His ways have worked before; they work now, though I may not see, Our God with His ways is working, will work again – and I will tell the story of it. Last week, I felt fragile, worn – like I needed to be wrapped in tissue paper and … Continue reading →

Prayer for My Son’s Wife

Blue Cotton Memory

There’s a wedding this week – and inbetween the sciatica recovery, I’ve been baking cupcakes, flourless chocolate tortes, almond crusted mini-cupcakes for the rehearsal dinner. As the pain has receded, I’ve been able to savor the memories and, in the remembering, thank God for His faithfulness, his powerful love that saves, redeems, and rebuilds the broken places. My 4th son … Continue reading →

Meet Me in Galilee II

Blue Cotton Memory

(No Remember Me Monday this week – I threw out my back on Palm Sunday and am struggling with pain and recovery. I’m reposting this from last year because I’m needing this encouragement today – that God has such goodness planned, even after a crucifixion experience, even after a resurrection experience – His plans for goodness don’t stop – they … Continue reading →
