Sun and a Psalm

I have to admit, I’m glad we are back to having sunlight later in the day. It gives us time to still enjoy being outside when we get home from work. I don’t feel like the day has been scooped out from under me. Now there is that little thing about getting to work in…

Hard to Describe

My husband and I left work intentionally at an earlier time than usual. Notice I didn’t say we left early, 🙂 . We left with a purpose, to enjoy happy hour at one of our local establishments. When we arrived, there were two seats in a great spot, lively conversation with other couples, wonderful nosh,…

You Can Never Have Enough

It’s been sort of a whirlwind week. We had several events at church, one last night was our annual event to bring awareness and support to the charity partners we assist here in our county. What a wonderful event and so much support for so many who do so much. I’m dragging a bit, but…

Comfort in a Song

Music is a powerful thing. It can bring incredible joy, invoke memories, and heal brokenness. Some songs are so powerful that the emotion they stir can often find the listener in tears. Today, friends, I’m just sharing a song I’ve come to love. It’s a powerful song with a message: we are God’s children, and…

Are Ya Kidding Me?

Today is a better day. Many thanks to all of you who texted and offered prayers for my out-of-sorts day yesterday. It truly helped, and Father did as He always does: He provided the distractions and opportunities to do what He wanted me to do. So, today, I didn’t lie back down, nope, up and…

His Words Are Enough

They really are, you know. Those days when you feel a little down, and you don’t know why. Those days when you feel melancholy and just out of sorts, the word of the Lord is all we need. I guess today is one of those days. The weather is gloomy, trust me, we’ll take the…

The Firsts

Grief can be a very difficult thing. It’s a very personal process. Everyone grieves in their own way, and to say what one should be feeling, well, we can’t do that. We all know there are stages of grief, and sometimes those stages seem unbearable. I do believe, though, that we must go through them…

Be Intentional

For Lent, I committed to reading more of my Bible. I’ve been intentional about it, sitting down and even moving things out of the way on my desk, so that my Bible is the focus. Many years ago, I was listening to a podcast, which was a Bible study of sorts. Anyway, at one point,…

Stay Connected

You all know how much I enjoy my Saturdays. Today will be no different, actually, maybe even more so today. A little pampering on deck, and then time on the water before the cold front hits us again. Our local weather guy said yesterday, “We get to see all four seasons in the next 5…

A Ride and a Message

This morning I rode my bike around our community. I’m usually out on the road by about 5:15 before the work traffic hits the streets. So, as you can imagine, it’s still dark, and that’s ok. It’s about six miles around our community. It’s a big circle, and much of the ride is “inside the…
