Anthills of Pride

Posted on August 29, 2017August 29, 2017 by Karen Harmening

We have fire ants in our yard.  They are dreadful creatures that Scott is continually chasing around the yard.  As he poisons each mound they just pack up their eggs and move to a new location, it's a constant never ending war between him and them.   Their bite is terribly painful, we've all experienced … Continue reading Anthills of Pride →

Sowing in Tears

Posted on August 24, 2017August 24, 2017 by Karen Harmening

I will risk sounding like a broken record by saying we as a family are in a season of suffering.  Because of Sarah's absence pretty much everything we do brings a staggering sting of pain with it.  In addition there are some other unresolved issues surrounding her death that have proven to be extremely painful … Continue reading Sowing in Tears →

The “Little Cricket” Martyr

Posted on August 22, 2017August 22, 2017 by Karen Harmening

Sarah loved the book Little Women, her face lit up everytime she talked about it.  She identified with Beth, one of the main characters, who not only happened to be a third daughter in a family of four daughters, but sadly also died at a young age.  Beth was very reserved, quiet and shy, much … Continue reading The “Little Cricket” Martyr →

Posted on August 14, 2017August 14, 2017 by Karen Harmening

I was reminded of Sarah's last journal entry this morning as I was having my quiet time. I once again found myself in 2 Peter 1 seeking much needed encouragement to persevere.  As I read verse 4 I could hear her voice shouting the exclamation she wrote in her final journal entry that day, "We … Continue reading “How Awesome is That?” →

“Thank You” is Not Enough

Posted on August 11, 2017August 11, 2017 by Karen Harmening

Most of the gifts and cards people have sent us since Sarah's departure are still stacked on the hearth in the kitchen.  They are a constant reminder of the love that has been lavished on us by the body of Christ at large.  I bought three big boxes of thank you notes a few weeks … Continue reading “Thank You” is Not Enough →

Intermingled Joy and Suffering

Posted on August 8, 2017August 8, 2017 by Karen Harmening

"Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal among you, which comes upon you for your testing, as though some strange thing were happening to you;  but to the degree that you share the sufferings of Christ, keep on rejoicing, so that also at the revelation of His glory you may rejoice with exultation." … Continue reading Intermingled Joy and Suffering →

“Live Redeemed”

Posted on August 3, 2017August 3, 2017 by Karen Harmening

 "God's highest aim in dealing with His people is in developing Christian character.  He is after creating in us those rich virtues that belong to our Lord Jesus Christ.  He is seeking to make us like himself.  It is not so much work that He wants in us.  It is not greatness.  It is the … Continue reading “Live Redeemed” →
