The Value of Human Closeness

May 14, 2020May 2, 2024 ~ Kim Blenkhorn ~ Leave a comment

Can we measure the value of human touch and physical closeness? "Sisters" Kim Blenkhorn Presently, with Covid-19 invading the peoples of the world social distancing has not only become the new normal, it is being enforced with the threat of fines.

Each One is to Be Holy to his God

May 11, 2020 ~ Kim Blenkhorn ~ Leave a comment

Parsha Emor - “speak” Leviticus 21-24  The main idea of the portion EMOR, is holiness and purity, the purity and holiness of priests, days and offerings. The concept of holiness is revealed through repetition. For example: God is speaking to Moses and instructing Moses to speak to Aaron, who is then to tell  the children … Continue reading Each One is to Be Holy to his God

Parenting Teenagers

I know how God Feels about his children when I look at mine, all the Love and all the frustration Divine.

Looking for Answers

May 4, 2020May 6, 2020 ~ Kim Blenkhorn ~ Leave a comment

When you can't pray because of disappointment than praise is fitting. Learn from King David, who started many psalms with complaints and ended in total awe and submission to a Mighty God. With my head bowed and my lips sealed shut I just couldn't ask for one more thing. Maybe you cannot pray because you … Continue reading Looking for Answers

Bible studies together apart

bible.com/app This is such a great tool to connect with others or even just one other in the word of God while in isolation. Even people in the same household that might feel more comfortable posting a comment rather then having a discussion. My daughter and I did one together each on our own phone. … Continue reading Bible studies together apart

The Green Tree – Luke 23:31

The Green Tree – Luke 23:31

It’s a dramatic moment. Jesus is walking the road to Golgotha—the place where he will breathe his last breath. He has been passed between rulers, mocked, beaten, spit on, and mistreated. Yet beneath the physical suffering lies a deeper sorrow: rejection by his own people. Though this suffering was part of God’s redemptive plan, though […]

What is ADHD?

What is ADHD?

I’m hesitant to write this because there is already so much information available at the push of a button. But to begin properly, I need some sense of order and definition—even if only for myself. A good place to start is with a, general understanding of what ADHD actually is. This is what I know […]

Hate Him First – Luke 23

Hate Him First –  Luke 23

Growing up I had a German shepherd named Casey. My dad bought her to protect us after he and my mom divorced; I was about five, I needed Casey. I would crawl inside her cage and lie down beside her, stroking her coarse black back and rubbing her soft brown ears. She followed me to […]

Faith on Trial- Luke 22:30–32

Faith on Trial- Luke 22:30–32

The setting is the Last Supper. Jesus stands on the brink of the greatest trial of His earthly and divine life—His death. In this final, intimate moment with His disciples, He offers a promise: “You will eat and drink at my table in my kingdom and sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.” […]

Madman or Mystery- Luke 21

Madman or Mystery- Luke 21

Many people have turned away from the Bible—and from Jesus—because they read it and conclude there are too many contradictions. Too many moments where Jesus appears to say opposing things or gives commands that sit on two ends of the spectrum. Where is the consistency in his messages? That is when Christ feels mysterious, even […]
