Leftovers

Last updated on: November 23, 2023 at 3:57 pm By Beverly R. Green

There is a part of Thanksgiving dinner with which I have developed a love/hate relationship. That part? Leftovers. On one hand, I want to cook everything at my house because I want to be able to take advantage of the leftovers. On the other hand, after 3 days of open-faced turkey sandwiches, the bird kinda loses its charm. Even Jesus indicates that we should use our leftovers: “And when they had eaten their fill, he told...

Thanksgiving Dinner Traditions

A Few Thanksgiving Dinner Traditions It’s Thanksgiving week, the time when all thoughts turn to the dinner table. There are probably more culinary traditions that manifest around Thanksgiving than there are for any other family occasion. Most folks have their way of doing it up right, and that is as it should be. Family and Thanksgiving dinner traditions are a grand combination! The kitchen is my therapy place. I love to cook, bake, prepare. I’m descended from Italians,... Read more

Carry My Tears: Anthology

Carry My Tears I am a fiction kinda gal. I love reading it; I love writing it. Several years ago, the Lord sent me a dream. It was one of those dreams that you know is more than “an undigested bit of beef, a blot of mustard, a crumb of cheese, a fragment of an underdone potato.” I asked several people about it, and everyone thought it was a cool dream, but nobody could give me any direction about what...

I Still Chase Sunsets

I Chase Sunsets. Yes, I still do literally chase sunsets. In my opinion, they are some of the most beautiful manifestations of God’s natural world. I think God is pleased with sunsets, and sunrises, and the beauty of His creation. I really think He is pleased when we acknowledge that beauty. My husband, sister-in-law, friend, and I have been walking for exercise in the afternoon after we finish working. We walk in the cemetery close to our homes.... Read more

An Awesome Invitation

Psalm 100 is not only a direction to give thanks, but an awesome invitation. “Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing. Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto... Read more

A Career in the Valley of the Shadow: One Soldier

Veterans Day is a very special holiday to me. My family is full of military veterans. Father, son-in-law, son, and husband have all served in the U S Army. I am so very proud of all of them, but this particular story is my husband’s. He chose a career in which he would often find himself in the valley of the shadow. It was his trust in the God of the promises of the 23rd Psalm that helped him. You... Read more

Be Quick to Hear, Slow to Speak, and Slow to Anger “Let every man be quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger”—all seems pretty cut and dry. With pride at the root of sin, one can understand why the Holy Spirit through James would write, “Be quick to hear” (for pride values its own way above others), “be slow to speak” (for pride values its own opinion over others), “be slow to anger” (for pride values its...

Will the Real Devil Please Stand Up!

Searching for the Real Devil The devil. This time of year he seems to be everywhere. People appear to know a lot about him without really knowing a lot about him, and I’m thinking that can be a dangerous thing. Nobody I know really wants to invite him to dinner to start asking questions, though, so how do we figure out who this enemy is? I have begun by collecting a little bit of literary history. By the end, maybe we... Read more

Delayed in Traffic A couple days ago I was on my way to school, running late, driving as much over the speed limit as I could get away with, when up ahead, break lights–lots of brake lights. It seems the company working on repairing the street thought it was a good idea to put cones out at the very time many people who have jobs are headed to work and most people who are involved with education are headed to...

I Know! It’s Too Early for Christmas … However, if You’re Looking For a Skit, Look Where Hope Is

“Where Hope Is”–A Christmas Skit I know! I know! It’s too early for Christmas. However, if you happen to have a group that needs to get a skit together for performance in December, you are probably looking now. Last year, my creative writing class was charged with writing our high school Christmas skit to be performed along with the choir and band concerts. They did some research and realized that they liked the idea in Tolstoy’s short story “Where Love... Read more
