I Am Where You Are

You all know that I spend time on my lanai each morning and evening to spend quiet time with Father. The morning is especially nice because it is so quiet. Every day, I ask the Lord to guide my path. I ask Him to show me His plan and to help me carry out that…

Focus On Jesus

Reading the title of today’s little blog pretty much sums up the message. This could be the shortest of the 1,340 blogs I’ve written 🙂 . When you think about it, though, those three words sum up how to live our lives: just focus on Jesus. Yesterday, one of our parishioners (let’s call her Jane…

Be Vulnerable

What does it take to let Him in? Well, now that’s a pretty heavy question for this little blog. After spending time with Father last night, I realized there are times when I don’t share all I should with Him. I’m not sure why, given that He knows everything anyway. He knows what I’m thinking…

Rain, Cards, Jesus

I woke up with a start this morning when the thunderstorm outside made itself a little more known. Oy, it was a big thunderboomer as we say. Once I had settled myself, the next thought that came to mind was, “Well, so much for riding my bike or walking outside this morning”. I can’t really…

Start Somewhere

I shared a few months ago in this little blog about the project to take down and rebuild our church. It’s an emotional project, as you can probably imagine. We are just a few meetings away from final approvals from the local officials, and I guess you could say, it’s getting real. We are at…

Overcast

I’m headed out this morning to one of my happy places, the water. Fishing pole in hand, I’m hoping to get back into the groove of doing this like I used to. Most weekends, you could find me fishing someplace, and now that I can be on the water, well, I’ve got no excuses. I’ve…

Plug In

This morning, as I rode my bike, I was listening to a replay of CeCe Winans giving the sermon at her church on Mother’s Day. Wow, it was such a good message, as she spoke about mothers praying for their daughters. Actually, the title of her sermon was, “Don’t Stop Praying”. As I listened to…

Feeling Lost

Over the three years that I’ve been writing this little blog, many have mentioned to me how much they look forward to it being there for them each morning. “I love to start my day by reading and enjoying my coffee”, I’ve heard many times. If I take a break for family time, holidays, and…

His Goodness

It’s been an eventful week. I was going to say it’s been a long week, but you all know, a week is a week. Some are just more eventful than others. As I look at the events of the week, some good, some not so good, I know that Father was in its midst. There…

Tuesday Faith

Faith, not just on Tuesdays as the title of this little blog implies, but every day. I want to thank all of you who reached out yesterday to say that you are still praying for Emily Rea and her family. It was good to see so many share the update from her family on social…
