On Your Knees
This morning a song has been playing in my head. You know how that goes, when that process starts, you are singing it to yourself for hours, or days. I’m not sure why this particular song and it’s only one verse that keeps repeating itself. When I went outside to spend some morning prayer time…

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…

What Settles Your Soul
We’re in the rainy season here in SW Florida. What does that mean? Well, it means that right around 3:00 p.m. every day, a thunderstorm will roll in, dump a lot of rain, and then about an hour later, the sun will shine again. You used to be able to set your watch by it.…

Eyes for Emily
Usually, when I sit outside on our lanai to have my morning chat with Father, it’s quiet. However, in the last week or so the bubbler in our little lake has been running consistently. So, this morning as I sat and listened to the water, thoughts of Emily Rea came to mind. I’m thinking that…

20/20
I’ve worn corrective lenses for my eyes since I was…well since I was old enough to remember. I think my first pair landed on my face when I was about six. It’s a joke with my eye doctor when he asks if I can read any line on the chart, (without my contacts in), and…
