Kindness Carries

I’ve been recalling some instances that occurred while driving home from visiting family this past weekend. Those recollections give me hope, and help me to understand even more how Father is truly in our midst, guiding His children. My husband and I are a little older than when we used to make those “straight drive-through”…

Midweek Ho-Hums

Fun title for this little blog this morning don’t ya think? Isn’t it true though, we get to the middle of the week and if you’re like me, it’s easy for fatigue to set in. I’m dragging a bit this morning and there are still several days left in this work week. I have to…

The Birds of Hope

If you follow this little blog, you know that each morning and evening, I spend some quality time with Father on my lanai, (patio). The mornings are different because it’s usually very quiet, the fountain in our lake is off, there are not many lights on in the neighborhood, and maybe an occasional cricket chirping…

We Know Better

Now where might I be going with the title of today’s little blog? It’s actually going to be a pretty short one today. It’s very simple, I don’t know better than Father what is going to happen in this life. He and only He knows how my life will play out. Yes, I have control…

Sit with Me

Each day I make time when I wake up and right before I go to bed to have a chat with Father. I thank him for the gifts of the day, ask him for guidance as I begin the day, and lift some prayers for others who are in need. It really is a regrounding…

Begin with Him

Ahh, Monday again. Does anyone else think that time on the weekends goes by ten times faster than it does during the week? It’s ok, yes, it’s Monday but hey, we got this. I was reading some uplifting prayers for Monday this morning. I came across one that spoke to me, and thought I’d share…

It’s America

Yesterday my husband and I took a ride to a farm about an hour from us. I’ve heard about it, and follow them on social media. Each day the owner does a check-in from the farm. She’ll show the chickens running around, the sheep, the cattle, you get the idea. Recently she has showcased the…

Every Day is a New Day

I’m wrapping up what has been a wonderful few days with the seniors golf group I work with. At dinner last night it was fun to watch as people continued to be curious and learn more about each other. They learned about careers, families, and hobbies, (other than golf of course), and found connections to…

Foundations

Last Friday I was at the gym for my usual morning class. I really like the instructor on Fridays. He makes a point of going around the room through the entire class, encouraging, correcting, adjusting, and suggesting ways to improve the techniques we are learning. Most of the people in my 6:00 a.m. class are…

Hearing or Listening

Lately, I’ve been praying about some things that I truly have no control over. Isn’t that when challenges seem the greatest when we have no control over them? We want to just fix things, we want to just make things better, but at the end of the day, we really do have to just give…
