I think many people have mixed feelings about today’s verse. Even so, it’s apparently a reader favorite because it has been requested several times. So where do you stand? Do you view it as a holy guilt trip or a holy pep talk? You can do it, you can do it, you can! {clap clap} …

Once a quarter, I look forward to reading Emily Freeman’s “What We Learned” series. I am fascinated with the premise not only because I like to learn (especially from the Bible – as you have probably figured out by now) but because it makes me sit back and take stock.

Welcome to my virtual Blog Scrapbook! Every year in January I celebrate my blogiversary and look back to reminisce and see what worked and what didn’t. Life-long learning, right? Plus, it’s usually fun and surprising to see your favorite posts (and how different they were from my favorite posts) for the past year. But first …
