Our Father

June 11, 2020June 18, 2020 ~ Kim Blenkhorn ~ Leave a comment

I believe all peoples , from every nation are created in the image of One God therefore all are an equal reflection of that One God. “Hear o Israel the lord our God the lord is one.” It is only when we deny the one true God as Creator that we begin to lose sight … Continue reading Our Father

No Perfect Parents

May 29, 2020 ~ Kim Blenkhorn ~ 2 Comments

Our foxes hanging out under the bird feeder When something doesn't go well, I have a tendency to look back at all the things that I should have done, or could have done differently and beat myself up, but God keeps reminding me that no matter how well or imperfectly I parented He is in … Continue reading No Perfect Parents

the feeder and the feed

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

May 3, 2020May 4, 2020 ~ Kim Blenkhorn ~ Leave a comment

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

Pray for our nations leaders!

May 1, 2020May 2, 2024 ~ Kim Blenkhorn ~ Leave a comment

One thing I’m reminded of these days is that I’m not responsible for outcomes. I will be accountable to God for what I did with his instructions. Regardless of the outcome I may or may not want. God is watching over his word to perform it and God is responsible for the outcome. I know … Continue reading Pray for our nations leaders!

A Coming of Age Story |  Kim Blenkhorn 

A Coming of Age Story |  Kim Blenkhorn 

Chris was my first love. I was 6. Our relationship was innocent, hauntingly delicate and charming in its own way. His mother married my father. I was a visitor on the weekends and he was a full time resident. He was my first kiss,  In the basement under the watchful eyes of three curious older […]

Revealed – Part II | I Samuel 16

Revealed –  Part II | I Samuel 16

God chooses a King after his own Heart. David is revealed.  Saul’s character is fully matured. Saul is Revealed.  David is the anointed king in the midst of his brothers. This small detail is significant. David is a type of Messiah, being the predecessor to Jesus, as the Son of David. The scene is dramatic. […]

The  Room of Important Things 

The  Room of Important Things 

That room containing all the versions of myself in fragments of stuff sits there untouched week after week. Silent, waiting. looming over me like a giant to do list that I can never complete. How do I organize it, I asked ChatGBT. ” you don’t have an organization problem you have a decision problem.” it flaunted.

Revealed – Part 1 | 1 Samuel 16

Revealed – Part 1 | 1 Samuel 16

Samuel grieves. He fears. He makes assumptions. Samuel is profoundly human. Yes, even Samuel the prophet the man whose words never fell to the ground- what a relief.  I want to sit with Samuel for a moment because it’s easy to forget that the great heroes of Scripture were not immune to disappointment or even […]

1 Samuel 15 | Called and Tested 

1 Samuel 15 | Called and Tested 

God’s initial call often aligns with a person’s natural abilities or desires (what they can and want to do). Over time he tests not their ability but their heart. The test reveals the heart by demanding surrender in the very area where self-will is strongest. This test works to deepen relationship and intimacy with God. […]

I am also a portrait artist. I draw portraits of people who I believe have been of great importance and value to humanity. To see more, my latest, as well as some of my paintings visit my website: kimblenkhorn.com
