God is in the Compost Pile has moved.

I've packed up the Compost Pile and moved it to a new online home. You’ll find all the old posts there, the name is the same, and a few items have been added to the menu.

You’re all invited to stop by. So, please come on over. Clicking on the van in the picture below will take you there, and once you arrive, please sign up to follow me, and bookmark the new site in your favorites.

"Be still and know that I am God." ---Psalm 46:10.  

In 1985, I learned how to be still. I was at a low point in my life and asking for help from a God whom I knew in name only. He answered me. He led me to believe that He is everywhere, even in the most ordinary places. I found him not only in green pastures and beside quiet waters, but in the sound of a distant train, the smell of a campfire on a cool autumn night, and in the tenacity of a ladybug clinging to a blade of grass on a windy day.  

As you read my blog I hope that it will inspire you to be still in whatever you do. Quiet your heart, open your eyes, and listen. God is waiting for you in the most ordinary places. Yes, even in the compost pile!

Max Lucado has a unique way with words, and his children's book Hermie A Common Caterpillar is no exception. With simple text and bright, watercolor illustrations, the story of Hermie unfolds.

Hermie wonders why he looks and feels so common. Whenever he asks God why, God simply answers, "I'm not finished with you yet." Then, one day, Hermie feels very tired. He gets into his cozy, leafy bed, and he sleeps. And while Hermie sleeps a transformation takes place. When he wakes up, Hermie discovers that God has done something grand. You can guess what it is. Every caterpillar that lives to adulthood knows the end of the story.

Parents, please share this book and its powerful message with your children. We are all special because God loves us, and He has a unique purpose for our lives. Whenever we slump into feeling ordinary, we know that we have hope because . . .God isn't finished with us yet!
