A Couple of Pointed Remarks
Thanks for stopping by the website. Here’s hoping you’ll be pointed toward a chuckle or two, and then pointed in the most “up” direction—Jesus-ward!
Sort of on point, I burned my right index pointer-finger on the toaster recently. Man, did that smart. It might not have been so bad if I hadn’t kept aggravating it. Do you know how many moves in everyday life require a right index finger? And it was on the very tip. The typing tip. And I’m a writer. That means every j, u, n, m, h and y was painful—even my 6’s and 7’s.
And that little finger-wound not only interfered with typing, but it affected buttoning, stirring, tapping, zipping, poking, even button-pushing. In this high-tech day and age, a gal needs her button-pushing finger to be ever operational. Not to mention it’s my hairspray finger. When an injury interferes with my hairdo that’s when it really gets serious. I would’ve considered workman’s comp about then but I wasn’t sure how I could explain “toast” as work-related.
Anyway, I figured at least I could still point it.
It’s a good thing I always have something worthwhile to point out. And that worthwhile something is that everything in life points to Jesus. If my life isn’t pointing others to Jesus, my usefulness as far as anything truly meaningful goes is total toast. And we now know that toast in itself can lead to a surprising sting. That’s my “point” and I’m sticking to it.

Dear Rhonda,
While sitting here at my computer at work, I chose to read one of your writings. Thank you so much for the eye-opener. I loved the story and laughed and related—and even learned a couple of things. Though I may be a late bloomer in my faith walk, I start new each day and hopefully I am a little closer to God at the same time. Thank you so much for the teaching.
--Judy A.
