Hide & Seek: Your Last Resort?
By Karen W.

In the story of Jonah, the rebellious prophet who is running away from God, we come to the scene where the fearful sailors, as a last resort to save their own lives, throws Jonah into the raging sea. The next thing we know, Jonah is swallowed up by a big fish where he remained for three days and three nights.

 

Hide & Seek: And That's The Truth-th-th...
By Karen W.

Do you remember the character Judith on the comedy series, Laugh-in? She was played by the very funny Lilly Tomlin, one of my all-time favorite comediennes. Judith was a little girl with long dark ponytails who sat in a large rocking chair. As she rocked and rocked in that big chair, she would make up story after unbelievable story!

By Karen W.

“Don’t worry. Everything is going to be o.k.”

 

Fear Factor: Afraid to Love
By Karen W.

Isn’t it ironic that we find ourselves running from the thing that we desire the most? Do you run from love? We all do in one way or another. Why do we run from love? Usually because we are afraid we can’t have it or can’t keep it or don’t deserve it. We are afraid to love because we are afraid we won’t be loved in return - truly loved. Would you agree?

 

Fear Factor: Afraid of the Dark?
By Karen W.

“Turn on the lights!! I can’t think!!”

I knew that my friend was known for being a stereotypical blonde but what a ridiculous statement! But I had to laugh at it. What does light have to do with her ability to think anyway?

 

Fear Factor: Afraid of Snakes?
By Karen W.

“Watch out!!! It’s a snake!!”

Oh, how I hate snakes! They scare me to death! I keep a great distance or barrier between them and me at all times! The main reason I’m so afraid of them is because I don’t know which ones are poisonous and which ones are harmless.
