I’ll Huff And I’ll Puff

March 7-13, 2021 – Joseph Castillo This morning my co-worker locked herself out of the office.  She sent me a text, “Let me in, or I’ll huff, and I’ll puff.”  Immediately my mind went to the cartoon that I watched many times as a kid—the cartoon of the “Three Little Pigs” that is based on …

Frustrated

August 23-29, 2020 – Joseph Castillo Frustration can come in so many different ways.  I’m frustrated with Covid-19.  I’m frustrated that I have to wear a face mask everywhere I go.  I got frustrated when my face mask broke a string in public and I could not wear it anymore.  It kept falling off.  People …

Tired?

August 9-15, 2020 – Joseph Castillo Have you ever been tired?  I have.  There is this story in John that gives me encouragement.  It says, “and Jesus, tired as He was from the journey, sat down by the well (John 4:6).”  The story tells us that Jesus was hungry and tired.
