A Village of Skills
We’re just a little over a week away from our final Sunday in our little church before construction begins. This week, we cleared the final approvals from the city and submitted all the necessary paperwork to obtain permits. Trust me, the permitting process is for another blog, if ever 🙂 . As I’ve mentioned here…

A Simple Soul
Like the rest of the world, yesterday afternoon I heard the news that Dolly Parton had passed away. I was sad because I knew she had been struggling with health issues for a while. One of my friends said, “She hasn’t been well since her husband passed away”. She was a lovely woman. My goodness,…

Ironing With God
This morning I spent some time ironing. Unlike many people, I don’t mind it. It’s actually relaxing to me, and this morning even more so. You see, I was ironing altar linens. One of my very first little blogs was about ironing these linens. You see, there is a method to it. They are folded…

His Prayer
If you’ve been reading this little blog for very long, you know that I’ve come here at times sharing how I don’t have a clue what to write some days. I try to jot down notes when something comes to mind during the day, or when a situation occurs that is clearly God at work.…

It’s Your Right
If you’re like me, you’ve had your fill of election primary season texts, robo calls, postcards, and commercials. It’s stunning to me that the amount of money is being spent not to talk about the issues, but rather to simply trash whatever opponent(s) you have. There are so many accusations flying around; you simply don’t…

Talents
Our choir has been in England for the last ten days or so. They are there on a choral residency. Meaning they are singing in several cathedrals there while their choirs take summer breaks. Friday and this morning, we were able to watch them via the cathedral live stream services. Watching this wonderful group of…

In The Rain
We’ve finally gotten into a “traditional” Florida rain pattern. When I was younger, I would visit my dad here, and you could set your watch by the summer rains in the afternoon. They would roll in around 3:00 p.m., stick around for about an hour, and be done. It was pretty much an everyday occurrence.…

Worthy
Well, I’m not sure where the time has gone this morning, but I find myself sitting down at this little blog with just a short window to share some thoughts. I guess I tried to squeeze a little too much into my morning before heading out to church. I was busy yesterday working with the…

Ace
I’ve been following a story from Polk County, FL over the past few days. It’s a sad story, but one that also shows the heart of God’s children and how they come together in difficult times. The story is about one of the county’s K-9 officers named Ace. Ace was shot by a wanted suspect…

Through the Clouds
My husband and I spent a few days in the Upper Keys to celebrate our anniversary. It was a nice time away, and the life there is a tad more laid-back than here. Everywhere you look, people are in shorts, sandals, and usually a T-shirt referencing some local hangout, or something to do with fishing.…
