It Can be Mended

A few days ago I shared with you all that I broke a special Christmas ornament. I guess you could call it an heirloom of sorts, which I made as a child. You can read more about that in this little blog. I was not a happy camper on Sunday that is for sure. Well, the…

With Your Heart

How often do you find yourself in situations where you have to make a decision but you are just not quite sure what to do? If you’re like me, it happens more than you’d like. It’s an uneasy feeling sometimes, especially if the decisions you are torn between are life-changing. Over the years I’ve had…

The Carol of Our Father

We have an unspoken rule in our house that we don’t listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving. Now granted, usually first thing the next day I’ve got our favorite carols playing. It’s always enjoyable when that one song comes on and I’m like, “Ah, I love this one!”. Over the past few years, I’ve…

Broken Angel

We spent some time this weekend putting up the Christmas decor. Like many in SW Florida, our decorations are kept in a storage unit as these keepsakes would not do well stored in the summer heat of our garage. Judging by the “traffic” at the unit, we weren’t the only ones decorating this weekend. We all laughed…

The Thanks of a Lifetime

Thanksgiving Day. I know many of you have probably been up for hours already, prepping the bird, making the special family recipes, and filling the house with incredible smells.

More Thanks

It’s an exciting week, not only are we celebrating Thanksgiving tomorrow, we are celebrating the return to services in our church this weekend. It’s been a busy few months since Hurricane Milton came through and my goodness I’ve learned a ton. I never thought I’d be able to talk about HVAC systems, floor restoration, drywall…

Being Quiet Is the Hardest

I wonder how many of you are like me. Well that question could go in a couple of different directions couldn’t it? What I mean is, how many of you have a hard time just listening for the answer to prayers? Sometimes I feel like I’m trying too hard to hear what Father may be…

Prayers for Healing

Friends, you are always so wonderful to offer prayers when I come here to this little blog and request them. Well today would be one of those times. Out of respect for the individual who shared information with me, I won’t give much of the details. I have a friend whose father-in-law is having health…

Does He Test

I was thinking about this the other day, wondering, does Father put us in situations to test us, to see how we will respond? I have to admit the answer to that might be above my pay grade. I think it’s a fair question to ask and I’m sure it can make for a very…

Start it Right

It’s going to be a busy day ahead at our Christmas Market. I’m heading out the door to get an early start on some things, and I almost skipped writing this little blog. I figured you all would understand, and then I realized, um, I always have time for Jesus! I’m guessing He knows what…
