Laudable Linkage

Posted on by

Here are some great things I’ve seen around the “Net and thought some of you might enjoy as well.

Tim Challies shared a link to an incident that brought tears to my eyes: The Contagious Comfort and Mercy of God at Wrestling With an Angel. It begins this way:

One busy Saturday afternoon I was patrolling the local mall parking lot in my police cruiser. It was warm, so I had my windows down enjoying the fall air. As I drove though the lot I heard a loud piercing cry echoing like a sound bite from a horror movie.

After reading that post I clicked around and read a few other posts there. Very good, rich reading.

A Biblical view of self image and way of dealing with self-doubt by Laura at Outnumbered Mom, a new blog friend discovered through the Friday Fave Fives. Though it deals with self-doubt as a mother, the truths there are applicable to anyone.

Political angst by Wendy at Practical Theology For Women deals with a few pet peeves, such as angst in Christianity “over something the individual perceives as righteous or unrighteous but that Scripture itself only addresses in either very general terms or doesn’t address at all.”

The Marriage Bed. Be sure to read til the end! I’m sorry I forgot to note where I saw this one.

Respect within marriage.

How to Pray For Missionaries.

The Paradox of Parenting Boys. This made me smile.

A live web cam of a nesting owl, HT to Lizzie. It will be really fun once the babies hatch.

A refurbished vintage sewing cabinet. Lovely!

A video library of hand embroidery stitches. Great resource!

Paper silhouette art. These are very creative — I’ve never seen silhouettes like this.

If you need any ideas for cute Easter decorations or goodies:

Eggy Baskets.
Little nests.
Free printable cupcake toppers.

Have a great weekend! We start spring break this week!

  1. Thank you so much for visiting my blog and letting me know there are other homebodies out there. There’s so much to do at home, isn’t there?

    Also, thanks for the links in this post. I plan on visiting some as they look interesting.

    Have a great weekend,
    Sandra

  4. Wonderful links! I deeply respect Elisabeth Elliot, and it’s sad to read about her failing health. I’ve known nothing of her daughter Valerie, so that was an interesting read.

    Blessings on your weekend,

    e-Mom

  5. You have been busy, my friend! It is all I can do to keep the posts comin’ on my own blog…much less read anyone else’s (and you should be flattered to realize I am reading YOURS during my few quiet Saturday moments before the troops come back home from their Daddy outing)! Thanks for the great links…hopefully they’ll still be good by the time I can get to ’em. 🙂

    • These have been accumulating for a few weeks, I should probably post more often and have just a few each time.

      Some people do like to see interesting things they might not have otherwise. But I don’t expect anyone to read all the links, or even any, if they don’t want to — just whatever is of interest or what they have time for.🙂

  6. Hey! Thanks for stopping by my blog. Smile.

    I’m so glad you enjoyed the interview with Valerie. I haven’t met a person yet, Christian anyway, who didn’t profit in a “good way,” from what Elisabeth wrote and taught about—how could we not, all she did was teach “Bible.” To have a problem with her one would surely has a problem with the Almighty Himself.

    Anyway, thanks for posting the link on your site too, my dear blogging friend.

    Blessings

  7. Thanks for posting the link to the interview with Valeri Shepard. I have been wondering what Elisabeth Elliot is up to lately. I am saddened to hear that she has dementia. I love her writings.

  8. Oh my gosh! The Marriage Bed was just exactly what life is! I could have written it! And the Paradox of Parenting Boys! I only had two — but I know all that stuff – and more! 🙂 I knOw you do as well!
