Let Your Light Shine
For me, today is one of the most special days of the year. Today is National Wreaths Across America Day. This organization’s mission is to lay a wreath at the gravesite of every veteran, and they are making progress for sure. The act of taking time to personally lay a wreath at the grave of…

Dual Meaning
One of my favorite Christmas songs is Believe sung by Josh Groban. This is the title song for the movie Polar Express. I’m sure you are all familiar with the plot. A young boy has come to that sad point where he no longer believes in Santa, or at least he’s close to it. The…

The Trees & The Memories
Yesterday, some wonderful volunteers at our church came in to help decorate the Christmas tree that fills our parish hall with such warmth. Another longtime parishioner donated a lifetime’s worth of ornaments to the church several years ago. There are hundreds of ornaments from all over the world. From large, small, plain-colored balls to intricate…

It’s Not About…
I was thinking about this little blog this morning. It was one of those mornings when I was struggling a bit about what to share. Even my morning check-in with Father didn’t really yield a message, which is unusual. However, throughout the morning, my mind keeps returning to a situation from yesterday. I don’t want…

Adopted Grandmas
I had a wonderful conversation yesterday. I came here last week to ask for prayers for little baby Briggs, the grandson of a friend of mine. And…pray you did. Briggs’ grandmother has been keeping me updated. He had a little setback last week, but the medical team assured the family that he was doing well.…

The Manger Revisited
This morning I found myself thinking about the manger where baby Jesus lay. I think it’s because yesterday I listened to the Christmas song, “Joseph’s Lullaby”. If you’ve never heard it, I encourage you to give a listen today. It’s a beautiful song, and it puts you in the manger, or at least it did…

Concentration
Saturday, yep, you all know it, my favorite day, and during the holiday season, I love having the special traditions to focus on. This weekend is traditionally when our family gets the tree and decorates our home. We’ll be tackling that task for certain 🙂 . It’s also Cookie Sunday at church, where the kids,…

From The Mouth of Babes
Over the past few days, I’ve focused on children in this little blog. You all have lifted prayers for some little ones going through health challenges, and those prayers are being answered. Thank you again for taking the time to lift Joey and Briggs. Please keep them coming for continued healing. Like many, I’ve had…

Celebrate Prayer
Yes, I think we should…celebrate prayer that is. I guess that seems kind of odd to say, let’s celebrate prayer. Well, I don’t know why we wouldn’t, because you know, it’s a pretty amazing thing. The power of prayer is real, and it’s a force to be reckoned with. Over the past few weeks, I’ve…

Community of Faith
When I started this little blog three years ago, I thought it would be a nice way to share some great pictures of sunrises and sunsets along with a scripture verse. It was meant to be a way to just say thanks to Father for the many gifts He provides every day. Now here I…
