I Know the Plans

We’ve all had those times when things didn’t go the way we hoped. Heck, we even pray for things to go a certain way, and they don’t. And… sometimes it’s extremely disappointing or even painful when things don’t go the way we planned. I know when it happens to me, I’m sad or even upset…

Stick With It

So you all know I’ve started back on my fitness journey, faithfully, I guess you could say, almost a month ago. I’ve learned some things over these past weeks. First, it’s so much easier to have a steady exercise routine than to try to start one again. Back in my corporate America days, we used…

His Day

Yesterday, after church, my husband and I were headed to have breakfast with some friends of ours. I’ve mentioned here before that it’s become our weekly routine, and the question of the day is, “So where are we going this morning?” We love catching up with them each Sunday, and to say there may be…

A Way to Live

Yesterday, we celebrated the life of a sweet friend, Polly. I shared a about her in a little blog post last week. Polly was the Parish Administrator before me, and she was one of the most loving, supportive, and well, funny women I have ever met. She was such a gentle soul. I know she…

Going With the Flow

There has been a sort of theme for these little blog posts this week. Um, not by my doing. The theme is about how many things, well, most things in this life are out of our control. Fortunately, as I’ve said in those other blog posts, we have Jesus to help us through those times.…

Work for Me

I walked my route again this morning, only unlike yesterday, the golf club was totally lit up. The lights were on everywhere. I noticed workers inside the club, in the cart barn, and people pulling into the parking lot as I walked through. My goodness, it wasn’t even 5:30 a.m. yet. As I walked and…

In a Little While

Every now and then, you come across a song that just hits the spot. If you’ve been following this little blog for long, you know that I have a few favorite Christian performers/bands that I listen to. I have my playlists, and most days, I just put them on repeat 🙂 . When you find…

The Passion of our Lord

It’s Palm Sunday, the beginning of Holy Week. I mentioned yesterday that my husband and I readied the church for today. The palms are used to decorate windows, the altar, the crosses, and, of course, will be handed out to parishioners during the service. This service is special, and I’ve come to really love it.…

Operations of Easter

So, this week I’ve been talking with Father as I do my morning walk or bike ride. It’s been a nice change, as I’m spending more time in conversation and prayer. As I was riding along this morning, listening to the consistent hum of the tires, I began thinking about next week, Holy Week. To…

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…
