I sift through my canning recipes and discover this.

Several jars of green beans are sitting on a counter.

It seems like all we hear or talk about is the trouble in our lives or our nation’s division. Augustine had asked two questions of the world; “If there is no God, why is there so much good? If there is a God, why is there so much evil?”

What is familiar to you? Your children's voice, your spouse, your daily routine, the road you travel? We have many things very familiar to us. Webster defines familiar: common, well known, close association. The word origin from the Latin is, "the family footing."

It is day sixteen of war between Russia and Ukraine. “War can drive us all into the wilderness. Missiles drop, and we drop to our knees. We are a world wildly looking for a way out. We’re a hurting world, desperately fleeing – we see it all over our news screens.” (Ann Voskamp)

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved though him."
