The Temple
There is an old saying that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, expecting to get a different result. Ya, I think it’s pretty spot on. I thought about this as I was riding my bike this morning. Where the heck am I going with this little blog today,…

Keeping On
My husband and I were talking about this little blog last night. I was sharing that I never know when a little blog is going to touch someone. There are times when I hit the “publish” button and think, “Hmm, I’m not sure that was even coherent”. Yet, I’ll get several text messages or comments…

Ice Cream Lessons
One of the very first little blogs I wrote was recapping an evening my husband and I had several years ago. After dinner at home, he asked me if I wanted to get ice cream. We did and had a wonderful time reminiscing about the many years we have been together. Well, last night, once…

Tried and True
I’ve started something with my morning prayers and conversations with Father. I’ve added the Lord’s Prayer to the end of my conversation each morning. In the past, whenever I didn’t know what to pray or what to say to the Lord, well, I always fell back to His prayer. I’m guessing that is pretty common…

R and R
It’s an abbreviation for “rest and recuperation”. I’m not sure if the military first coined the abbreviation or not, that I guess, is for another blog 🙂 . I know that we civilians have used it for as long as I can remember. I think back in the day, and probably still today, the military…

Their Future Glory
I’ve been reading the book of John over the past few weeks. Of all the Gospels, I have to admit, it is my favorite. I think I’ve shared here before that the Bible I use is The Founders Bible. It’s a wonderful version as it weaves together not only the word of God, but His…

The Gift of a Brother
Today is a day to celebrate. Well, every day is a day to celebrate in my opinion 🙂 . Today, though, we celebrate my brother’s birthday. I am the baby of the family and have two older brothers. So, as you can probably guess, growing up, I was what we used to refer to as…

Simple Gifts
This morning, I find myself thinking about yesterday and just feeling grateful. It was Valentine’s Day, and of course, I’m so grateful for the love of my life, my husband. We exchanged cards as we always do; we’re past the point of needing to get physical gifts. We have what we need in each other…

Just Another Day
I just realized that today is Friday the 13th. Ya, I used to wonder about all those superstitions. As my relationship with Christ has grown, all those have fallen away. Isn’t it amazing what we, God’s children, manage to concoct to push us further away from Him and His love? Let’s just look at today…

Laugh at Yourself
I believe Father gave us the gift of laughter for many reasons. You’ve probably heard that it takes fewer facial muscles to laugh than to frown. Well, that alone should tell us we should be laughing more. I got home a little later than usual last night, to say it was a strange day, well,…
