Taming of a Pharisee, Part 2 (or… A Seven Year Old Sinner Meets Jesus)

The Part Where the Girl Meets Jesus:
Remember the hell from yesterday? At some point, I figured out I was going there.
In first grade, my Sunday School teacher taught her room full of tiny terrors the sinners prayer and I understood mighty fast I qualified. I told lies to keep from getting in trouble. I stole [...]

The Taming of a Pharisee (or, Good Little Girl Gets Saved) Part 1

This is my story. It’s not the whole story or even the biggest portion. It is, however, the most important–
It’s the sweetened- condensed version of how  I met Jesus and came to love Him like thunder.
All my life, I’ve loved Jesus. These days, I call Him Yeshua.
Why? I don’t know.
Maybe Jesus became overused—a worn-out name without [...]

Hide and Seek

 
Yes, I’ve been gone awhile. I’ve been away seeking God. Good things take time (insert big, cheesy smile here because seeking God turned out to be way more fun that expected.)
Back in the day, I learned that just because the Good Lord tells you:

Blog Tour: K. M. Weiland, Behold the Dawn

Somewhere in the recent digital past, I ran across this bright young lady on Twitter and begged for a stop-over on her blog tour. Why? I like her picture. Seriously, with hair like that, how can you not like her? Secondly, she’s writing about knights and fair maidens and jousting. If my characters weren’t constantly mouthing [...]

It was a cold dark night in the darkest part of the city, faraway sirens sired and the hounds were hounding but I didn’t care. I had to escape into the darkness, my shiny [...]

Sneezing Beauty 
It’s a lazy summer day and I’m all sprawled out on the sofa in just the right position so that the ceiling fan is hitting my entire body.  I yawn lazily and am in the middle of a good stretch when I hear the front door.  Someone [...]

Contest Entry: Tim Greens

Here’s another~ Tim’s cat has issues… great writer, though
 Here’s a page I found in my empty apartment after I came home the other night – my girlfriend was gone, but the cat came back a few days later… we seem to be getting along just fine.
 
you really are clueless, aren’t you – sorry [...]

ATTENTION ALL CATS WHO RUN A HOUSEHOLD
Are you keeping your human staff up to par? Are you keeping their guilt levels high? I didn’t think so.
Recent reports seem to indicate that you’ve been sleeping on the job. That simply will not do. You’re [...]

Great job, Donna!
A Hitch in His Tale
 
            The door flung open and a hairy arm spun a yellow tabby around by the tail and slung him across the backyard before the door slammed shut.
The cat landed shakily on his feet and staggered back to the patio where an old Siamese cat lay curled up on [...]

Pretty sure this particular feline lives at my house.

Listen carefully, servant. I’m a male, understand? This sissy prissy blather you’ve been spouting at me since I was [...]
