Watching

There have been times in this life when I’ve had people tell me they feel like Father is testing them. I’m not one to believe that He does that. I don’t see the Lord creating us, His children, to test us. I do, however, believe that He watches how we handle situations. Because of our…

Orderly

There is something to be said for having things neat and orderly in our lives. I guess the new year brings the opportunity to do things a little differently. This morning, as I’m getting ready to head out for some errands, I took a moment to tidy up my desk. I put away things that…

Trust Him to Guide

Do you believe that Father brings people into our lives for a reason? I certainly do. I don’t believe there are coincidences; I believe that the Lord has a plan for all of us and uses all things for good. I know there are times when we face challenges and definitely don’t feel like anything…

One of Ten

I’ve shared here before that I receive a daily devotional text from a friend of mine who is a priest. He is taking us through the Ten Commandments right now, and I’ve been learning a great deal from his messages. Yes, I know these ten simple rules that Father asked us to follow. However, digging…

When God Says Enough

If you read this little blog daily, you probably noticed that I didn’t publish one yesterday. There is a story behind why that I would like to share. I’ve talked a little bit here about a very close group of friends who, over time we have we have become prayer warriors as well. Well, a…

Dual Meaning

One of my favorite Christmas songs is Believe sung by Josh Groban. This is the title song for the movie Polar Express. I’m sure you are all familiar with the plot. A young boy has come to that sad point where he no longer believes in Santa, or at least he’s close to it. The…

This morning, I got another reminder that I really am not in control. Newsflash, I really do need to remember that, it makes for easier days 🙂 . Last week at work, our IT company did a security update to our system, including our email system. We have to have all the necessary processes in…

Preparations

Our youngest came into town yesterday. She’s helping her folks make the drive back home for the holiday. Wow, did I really say that? I’m not old, you’re old 🙂 . Actually, I admit, having her here to help with some final preparations before we leave is a relief. I might have made a little…

Let it Flow

Did your mind go right to the song from the movie, “Frozen”? You know the “Let it Go” song. Oops, sorry; now you will probably have that song in your head for the rest of the day. Totally not intended. As I was thinking about this little blog today, I was also thinking about all…

Dig In

We’ve got a super busy week on tap at work. Events almost every day, wrapping up with our annual Christmas market over the weekend. I found myself waking up throughout the night, thinking about the various events and tasks that accompany each of them. Why is it we do that? Wake up thinking about things,…
