Fit Them In
I’m spending the next few days with family in town. My stepmom is here for a visit. She’s making her way around the country to see family and friends on kind of a whirlwind tour so to speak. We haven’t seen each other in over a year, in person at least so this visit is…

But I Wanted
Recently I’ve been having conversations with friends about various events in their lives. One was in the middle of a deal to open her own business. Another was planning a lengthy trip. In each case, my friends had plans and hopes around what they were working on. One to work for herself in an industry…

Just Get Me Through
A friend and I were talking via text yesterday afternoon about the crazy schedules in our lives right now. It seems like we have just gotten up and before we know it the sun is setting, and the day has flown by. We’re juggling work, and home life, weekdays and weekends are filled, and the…

Weekend of Thanks
This Memorial Day weekend is about remembering. It’s about honoring. It’s about saying thanks to those who gave everything for total strangers. Men and women gave their lives to protect the freedoms we all enjoy. This morning I was reading in our Book of Common Prayer and was drawn to this prayer of thanksgiving. Though…

A Psalm for Mom
A friend of mine is in need of prayer. She is in the process of helping her sweet mom make her way home with Jesus. No matter how old we are, we are never ready to lose our mothers. Even though it is not goodbye forever, it is still so painful and there is a…

If you’ve been reading this little blog for very long, you know that I began writing it in place of the book I was going to write, (and still plan to write one day). Five years ago, (yes the dreaded 2020), I began posting bible verses on social media, just once a day at first.…

Father in the Pool
Yesterday in this little blog I shared that a group of friends had put together a surprise for a mutual friend/mentor of ours. We all have gathered here in SW Florida, some coming from as far away as California to spend time with a wonderful woman who has touched our lives. I think it’s safe…

Spring Storms
I had friends traveling all over yesterday. They were in Connecticut, South Carolina, Ohio, and everywhere in between. During our text conversation last night, they were all trying to make it home. The storms in the Midwest and Ohio Valley were awful. Flights were delayed at every turn. It was well after midnight before everyone…

In My Heart
It’s been a busy week at work, so much so that I am trying to figure out where the week went. When you combine that with settling back in at home, I guess you could say I’ve been a little out of sorts. This morning as I sat and spent time with Father I’m embarrassed…

Home Sweet Home
Well, exactly three months later, we are finally back home in our place. As with all construction or remodeling, things took longer than planned, but I’m telling myself not to focus on the length of time but instead to enjoy being back in our home. It was late last night when we moved the last…
