Touching Him

Teresa Poucher Since this virus has us home most of the time I have taken to walking and praying.  It reminds me to pray for my neighbors a lot more. So, I’m talking to God and I have a dear preacher friend fighting for his life. I said, God if you don’t touch him he is

Mountain Tops

Teresa Poucher Here in Louisiana, it is pretty common to see water. It might be a lake, pond, river, swamp, or even a ditch. What we don’t see aremountains. Of course, we are in awe of them.   I have had the pleasure of living in Colorado as well as California. Pikes Peak was in our back yard, so to speak. We went up in

Spiritual Thirst

Teresa Poucher One can go 21 days without food, even longer. Some have survived 60 days without food. Going without water is another story.

Wash Your Hands

Teresa Poucher   I don’t know about you; all this hand washing and sanitizing is making my hands so rough and dry, they are starting to crack.   Who would have ever thought we would be living like this?  Human touch is essential.  We all crave to be touched.  Many times, it may be as small as a handshake, or a pat

I Can’t Breathe

Teresa Poucher Seems like everywhere we go we have to wear a mask. I’m glad I don’t have to work in public and wear that mask all day.   Most masks make it difficult to breathe.  The majority of us were born breathing without complications.  Something so simple has become threatening.  Fear grips hold of some to the point of not

The Magnifying Glass

Teresa Poucher The enemy of our soul has several tools.  I just want to talk about one of them — a magnifying glass.  When I was a child, I would take a magnifying glass outside and shine it just right and burn a leaf.    No, I didn’t start a real fire; I just scorched a leaf.    The size of the fire will be determined

Mountains, Valley’s, Wilderness And Plains

Teresa Poucher Our life is a journey through mountains, valleys, plains, and wilderness areas. Awhile back I had a post: “Why am I in the valley again?” In that post, we learned many times, we are in the valley to pick something up. Today, I want to go where many people are right now —

I Love My Dog

Teresa Poucher I’m so thankful God made dogs. ‘Talk about glad to see you when you come back home! They will do a song and a dance for you. Do you think they are worried about your political views or beliefs? They don’t care about your stature, looks, clothes, income, job, or intelligence. A dog

Does Nakedness Affect Your Hearing?

Teresa Poucher    Many times, when one goes to the doctor, he’ll say, “Get undressed and put on this gown.”  At that moment I seem to have a hearing deficit.  I didn’t hear what the doctor said, I just want my clothes back on.  I know it’s not always true, but usually, the doctor waits until you have your clothes back on before he lowers the boom or gives you
