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…

The Quiet

This morning, I spent my usual time with Father. As I often do, I asked Him what message I could share today. Quite often, a message comes to me pretty quickly. Not today, though. What I heard was, well, what I heard was quiet. As I sat and tried to make sense of the message,…

Mac

My brother-in-law Mac walked lovingly into the arms of Jesus yesterday afternoon. The past few weeks have been kind of a blur, which is understandable when the unexpected happens. Over the past few weeks, we’ve spent time together as a family. We’ve said I love you more times than I can count. We’ve played “remember…

Thy Will Be Done

These are four of the most difficult words we must say at times. Not my will, Lord, but Your will be done. Even though the words are difficult, there is also comfort in these words. If we can, through whatever challenges we face, if we can keep Him front and center, hold firmly to Him,…

Seal the Cracks

Yes, the cracks. The fallen one he is patient. He sits in wait and looks for the little cracks where he can work his way in and do his best to make you feel alone and apart from Father. It’s his mission in his life, you know, to do his best to show the Lord…
