Prepared
Yesterday afternoon, I did the usual grocery store run. When I got home, I did something I haven’t in a while. I took the time to prep for the week. Made up a batch of the family salad dressing, restocked our homemade pickled jalapenos, and prepped for dinner all in one fell swoop. Following dinner,…

Prayers for Paradise
Living here in SW Florida, we’ve had our share of hurricanes over the past few years. So far it appears we will get through this season without a major event here in our little paradise. Unfortunately, it looks like another paradise island, Jamaica is going to get the brunt of Hurricane Melissa. This storm is…

Clinging
I mentioned yesterday that I have a friend, a priest, who sends me a daily devotional text. After reading the little blog yesterday morning, he sent me an additional text. If you recall, in this little blog I was sharing about how the happenings in this world lately have me feeling tired and just a…

Keep Digging
This morning, I was reading a devotional that a friend sends me each day. It is focusing on the Lord’s Prayer and discusses the meaning of each section. We’re at the part of “Lead us not into temptation”. One of the pieces of scripture focused on Job. We all know how faithful Job was to…

Prayer, Hope, Faith
Prayer can be a difficult thing sometimes. Wow, that’s a great way to start this little blog for the week ahead. Well, you all know me, I sometimes just blurt out what I’m thinking here. As I was talking with Father this morning, I added one of my usual petitions to my morning prayers (it’s…

Wrote It Yesterday?
You all know that I speak with Father every morning, and part of our conversation is to discuss what message I can share here on this little blog. I usually ask if there is something in particular He wants me to share. Some mornings that message comes to me clearly, other mornings not so much.…

You’re God
Just a simple little blog this morning. It’s been quite a few weeks, and this morning, when I was listening to my favorite playlist, this song came on. Wow, ya, I’d say it was timely. Sometimes friends, all we can do is just be still. We have to be still and know that He is…

It’s Ok to Hurt
Over the past several weeks, if you’ve been following this blog, you’re aware that our family has been going through a difficult time. However, I have friends who, in turn, are going through difficulties. I know many out there are struggling, facing challenges, and feel lost or alone. A few nights ago, I found myself…

The Christmas Effect
I’ve never been a fan of seeing Christmas items in the stores starting in August. I’m a believer that Thanksgiving is such an important Holiday and one that deserves respect, and I don’t like that we kind of just skip over it and go right to Christmas. Now, having said that, I do love the…

Don’t Doubt
A few days ago, following the funeral of my brother-in-law, several family members went to spend time at their family’s farmland. My sister-in-law owns a large portion of the wooded area that is simply beautiful. We used to spend many a Thanksgiving weekend celebrating the Rally of the Clan on this land. We’d have a…
