That’s Puzzling drcindyryanblog.com/2023/03/…

That’s Puzzling

I love puzzles. This addiction was enhanced during the pandemic. A hard but not too hard 1000-piece puzzle gives my mind a rest. I like one certain brand that has proven over the years to be high q…

When Life is Algebra drcindyryanblog.com/2023/02/…

When Life is Algebra

Remember algebra? Algebra is defined by me as hard math. Not as hard as calculus but hard. It is considered the study of variables. What that means to me is that it is math with some unknowns or un…

Robbed of Peace

It can happen so fast, can’t it? I’ve been immersed for months getting ready to lead a women’s retreat on the topic of peace. I’d been reading all that Jesus said on the top…

It’s Just One Word drcindyryanblog.com/2023/01/…

It’s Just One Word

How can a word shape a whole year? Have you heard about the simple concept of adopting a word for the new year or letting a word adopt you? It is one of the most powerful ways I know to keep a spir…

I Did it To Myself

Long time no blog! I last wrote at the end of September. My goodness. What happened? Life. Busyness. A loss of balance. My husband announced his retirement. Our son in the army deployed. We had sev…

In the Turning

He’s six now, in that stage of life where you lose your top two front teeth. He’s only lost one of those top ones so far, and one on the bottom, adjacent to it. He’s definitely sn…

Oh, I See

Have you ever had one of those moments when the skies parted and you felt like, just for a second, you could see a bigger picture? Or maybe the opposite is true for you, do you have a tendency, lik…

Orange Colored Sky drcindyryanblog.com/2022/08/…

Orange Colored Sky

Sometimes life feels hard. Sometimes it feels delicious, like pure grace. Often it feels like both. I read recently about how people were always asking Jesus for a sign, a way to know what was goin…

When Hate Comes Your Way drcindyryanblog.com/2022/08/…

When Hate Comes Your Way

What do you do when hate, anger or negativity comes your way? What do you do with it? What do you make of it? It seems like the bigger the endeavor, the more the pushback. The more public your job …

Our Shiny Streets

Summer. It is blazing hot here in Texas. I’ve been on an intentional break from everything except our family. It’s been nice to be off the grid a bit, especially because all the news co…

A Quiet Anniversary

Do you have milestones only you remember? I’m having one today. June 14th is the 35th anniversary of my ordination into Christian ministry. Over the past decades, year after year, it is mostl…

Broken Joy

We’ve all been there, in that fragile place where just one small thing is all it takes to tip us toward despair or overload. You know the feeling. In fact, you’ve probably felt it more …

The troubling times continue. So does the blaming, discord and trouble. Right now, I don’t know anyone or any organization free of it. I’m finishing a series of three Women’s Book…

Who’s Counting?

I just celebrated a BIG birthday. In my past, none of my milestone birthdays have phased me much. This one made me cringe. I’ve had two weeks of texts, cards, gifts, meals and more to distrac…

Argh! Ugh! drcindyryanblog.com/2022/04/…

Argh! Ugh!

Argh and ugh are my two favorite kind-of-not-real words for expressing what is almost inexpressible. I use them when life seems so DIFFICULT. Lately, I seem to be using them more. Many things seem …
