Be Intentional
For Lent, I committed to reading more of my Bible. I’ve been intentional about it, sitting down and even moving things out of the way on my desk, so that my Bible is the focus. Many years ago, I was listening to a podcast, which was a Bible study of sorts. Anyway, at one point,…

Put Me In Coach
So right about now, I’m guessing you have the chorus from the John Fogerty song from about 40 years ago running through your head. No, that wasn’t my intent, but ever since I thought about the message for today’s little blog post, I must admit, it’s been running through mine. I’ve shared here before that…

Sharing the Load
My husband and I have been together for a very long time. We’ve settled into a routine when it comes to our homelife, especially when it comes to the chores and upkeep. We each have our own “responsibilities,” I guess you could say. Over time, we’ve each taken on chores, and now it’s just the…

The Gift of a Brother
Today is a day to celebrate. Well, every day is a day to celebrate in my opinion 🙂 . Today, though, we celebrate my brother’s birthday. I am the baby of the family and have two older brothers. So, as you can probably guess, growing up, I was what we used to refer to as…

Stay Connected
You all know how much I enjoy my Saturdays. Today will be no different, actually, maybe even more so today. A little pampering on deck, and then time on the water before the cold front hits us again. Our local weather guy said yesterday, “We get to see all four seasons in the next 5…

A Ride and a Message
This morning I rode my bike around our community. I’m usually out on the road by about 5:15 before the work traffic hits the streets. So, as you can imagine, it’s still dark, and that’s ok. It’s about six miles around our community. It’s a big circle, and much of the ride is “inside the…

What We Make It
Yesterday we marked the start of Lent, the time leading up to the crucifixion, and more importantly, the resurrection of Jesus. This time is what me make it. Well, that’s kind of flip, some might think. Actually, though, it truly is what we make it. We can choose to treat this time like every other…

Reflect and Recommit
Today, we begin the Lenten season. The 40 days before Easter (not including Sundays). A time of reflection and repentance. A time to dig deeper into our hearts, opening even more space for our Lord to live through us. In this little blog, I share a prayer I read this morning. O Merciful Father,Today I…

Not a Part-Time Job
I guess when you read the title of today’s little blog, you might be thinking I’m coming here to talk about work. Well, I am, sort of. I heard something this morning on my walk, while listening to a podcast, and boy, it struck me. The host said, “Jesus did not offer us a part-time…

Raincoat of Armor
My husband and I were chatting last night about the possibility of rain. We so need it here in SW Florida, well, the whole state needs it for that matter. We have some serious drought action happening. Fortunately, the forecast was calling for rain during the evening hours. This morning, when I got up, I…
