Giving Up Thinking that God Has Limits

Rebekah Freed

Omnipotent ... all-powerful. God has supreme power in the universe, He has power even over water and gravity and physics, etc.  His power is limitless. Omnipresent... all-present. God is capable of being everywhere at the same time. Omniscient... all-knowing.  God knows everything there is to know and all that can be known... past present and… Continue reading Giving Up Thinking that God Has Limits

Giving Up Fear in Loneliness

Rebekah Freed

If you've ever taken a Myers Briggs personality test, you know that one of the spectrums that you are rated on is I and E ... Introvert and Extrovert.  We often think of extroverts as loud and outgoing and introverts as more isolated.  While that is part of it, this is also measuring how someone… Continue reading Giving Up Fear in Loneliness

Bekah's Heart, Life Lessons Learned in the Kitchen

It’s Kinda Like Making Bread…

Rebekah Freed

Upon returning home from work today, I decided I would NOT try to go out to volleyball tonight.  The roads weren’t too bad but after almost getting stuck 3 times going in/out of the church parking lot today, I decided not to press my luck (for lack of a better phrase).  Instead, seeing multiple unused… Continue reading It’s Kinda Like Making Bread…

Rebekah Freed

I come ‘round the last curve in the road.  A smile grows on my face as contentment grows in my soul.   If I wasn’t sure before, I’m now convinced that this impromptu detour down “J-Hill” road was a great idea. I can’t wait to get down the drive and park the car, quick turning off… Continue reading Vacations are for Detours

These few days back on campus are hard to describe.  Most of us interns have used the word “weird” in that description more times than we probably can count.  It’s… Continue reading ‘Tis Good, Lord, To Be Here

Rebekah Freed

The leftover turkey, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce and more fills the fridge. Pies and cookies line the buffet table ready to be eaten as soon as our stomachs can hold another bit of food.

Rebekah Freed

Thinking about some of the high school kids that are in playoffs for sports in these coming weeks makes me think about my high school experience.  Now, don’t get me wrong, I loved my high school and there were many things that our school was really good at (music, basketball, etc.)… but football just wasn’t… Continue reading Hope {Day 9} – “Against All Hope”
