The Things That Come Between

Have you noticed how easy it is to let “the things” come between you and Father? What do I mean by “the things”? Well, anything, all of it. The busy schedule, the work to-dos, the home life to-dos, this appointment, that ballgame, this meeting, you get the idea. Our everyday life presents “things” that get…

Keep Doing

This morning I changed things up a bit. My usual routine is to spend time with Father on the lanai, having a morning chat, so to speak. Then I make my way to my desk to put some ramblings here in this little space. Then I’ll head out to ride my bike. Well, I had…

One-Minute Prayer

I have a wonderful pocket-size book that was given to me by a friend many years ago. It’s title One-Minute Prayers. Every now and then I pull the book from the shelf in my office and read the simple prayers. They aren’t prayers in a traditional sense, they are more like thoughts, or conversations that…

Make a Plan and Do

I have a new team member, and I’m so thankful. Yesterday was her first day and as you could expect it was a little hectic. That first week of training always is.

Lessons from Mahjong

Chances Are

A few days ago, I shared some details about the process of trying to hire a new team member here in this little blog. I mentioned how I had a candidate I felt was a good fit for the position, however, she chose to go with another opportunity. Not long after, she reached back out…

A Look Back

The anniversary of the start of this little blog is coming up. In just a few weeks, I’ll mark three years of putting down some daily thoughts here along with a sunrise or sunset picture and a bible verse. This morning, I revisited my first five blogs. I realized how this little blog has changed…

Second Chance

Over the last few months, I’ve been going through the process of hiring a new team member. To say that it hasn’t been easy might be a tad of an understatement. There have been hundreds of applications and resumes submitted for the position. Fortunately, I haven’t had to go through every one of them, not…

Becoming One

Many years ago friends of ours who live across from the beach invited a group of us to watch the sunset. We would all gather, bringing our chairs, a nosh, and a beverage. There were several of those gatherings that became quite large. Our circle of chairs grew and it was nice getting to know…
