Because everyone loves a good story
PWD Goes Tri-Weekly(ish)
Have you noticed that Past Watchful Dragons has been conspicuously missing from your inbox recently? Oops, sorry about that. Read on to discover why I’m officially (even if it’s temporarily) switching to tri-weekly blog posts.
Masterful Poems: “Pied Beauty”
I don’t know about you, but springtime always draws me to praise the Creator. It must be something in the air (apart from the pollen). Gerard Manley Hopkins’ poem “Pied Beauty” is a wonderful tool that leads us to praise the Creator of all things dappled.
Grace Like Manna
There are two types of people in the world: those who procrastinate and those who work ahead. Most of the time I am solidly in the second category. But you know what? Life doesn’t always work that way. And I’m learning that grace isn’t doled out in advance either.
An End and a Beginning
Praise the Lord: Eva is home!
It’s the end of one set of prayers and worries and the beginning of another. See what God is doing in the life of our tiny Sparrow!
When Spring Is Underground
Did you know we just passed the Vernal Equinox on March 20? Now the days will be getting longer and warmer. Praise the Lord! But where I’m at in Michigan, we still have some 20-degree nights in the forecast. That doesn’t seem too festive. It’s hard to celebrate spring when you’re shivering.
The same holds true when you pray for a miracle. See what God’s been up to in the life of my littlest love in the NICU.
My Double Life
Past Watchful Dragons has been MIA for a few weeks. Maybe life was busy enough that you didn’t notice, or maybe you sat sullenly staring at your screen, wondering when I’d return.
Well, I’ve returned, but things aren’t back to normal. If you’d like to know about the double life I’ve been leading, then read on, my friend. Read on.

2021: In These Certain Times
It’s 2021! Do you feel completely different? If you’re anything like me, today feels like waking up on your birthday. You’re a year older and wiser, but it’s hard to tell.
Today’s post celebrates certainty “in these uncertain times.” Whether 2021 finds you elated, deflated, or simply waiting, read on for some encouragement.
Happy New Year, friend!
