Teresa Poucher When I was young, many moons ago, we played a game called “Mercy.”  The game is played by two people who grasp each other’s hands with interlocked fingers. The object is to twist the opponent’s hands or fingers until the opponent gives in and cries, “Mercy.”     I like studying the Ark of the Covenant.  In the wooden box coveredContinue reading “Mercy”

Teresa Poucher I have plenty of tasks at hand, as well as a to-do list, so get out of my way!     It’s hard for me to slow down; I’m just a little too task-oriented.   Sometimes, my to-do lists keep me from doing the things I need to do:  Talk to my mom, visit a friend, or just stop andContinue reading “Are You Alone?”

Teresa Poucher Our world has been shaken!   “Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.” (Hebrews 12:26)     Many will fall during this time, yet many will come to the Lord. I know the love of many willContinue reading “Floods, Fires, Cyclones, Collapse, Earthquake”

Teresa Poucher If you’ve ever read the book Men Are from Mars, Women are from Venus,* you understand about men becoming cave-dwellers at times. We ladies would rather talk about a problem to a friend; however, a man tends to retreat, much like Elijah.     In I Kings, chapter 18, we find Elijah on a mountain top experience.  HeContinue reading “Get out of your Cave”

And Abraham said unto his young men, abide ye here with theContinue reading “How To Get A Blessing”

Teresa Poucher Whenever there’s a crime, the police look for witnesses. They want everyone’s testimony. Detectives will interview each witness individually. Everyone saw the same incident, but each person has a different take. Someone in the medical field would focus on injuries. Someone else would describe the assailant’s weapon. Another witness might try to explainContinue reading “Can I Get A Witness?”

Teresa Poucher If you have ever had an early-morning flight, I guarantee you set your alarm. Chances are, you set more than one device or asked someone in the house to set their alarm. This is one alarm you do not want to sleep through.   Today, I feel God has set an alarm forContinue reading “The Alarm is Set”

Teresa Poucher I recently took up scroll sawing as a hobby. Many scrollers say,“I’m gonna make some dust.” I enjoy it and have made some nice pieces, leaving dust behind, a mess that has to be vacuumed or blown out of the garage.   My husband, brother, sister and I love to repurpose things. IContinue reading “Repurpose”

Teresa Poucher   I love to hear the birds sing.  I get up early before sunrise, sit outside, and listen to the birds.  I find it a wonderful way to start the day — a cup of coffee, the Word of God, and the birds.  It’s peaceful; I feel thankful and happy.     Science will tell us the birds are searching for a mate or tryingContinue reading “Beautiful Sounds”

Teresa Poucher My brother decided to move back to Louisiana after 20 years. He paints and does carpentry. Can I tell you, we are prone to accumulate a lot of stuff? He has at least a dozen guitars as well as a bunch of tools. Guess what? We too are so blessed and have soContinue reading “Making Room”
