My Heart, Your Heart
A few mornings ago, I was sitting on the lanai having my regular a.m. check-in with Father. I was asking for prayers for my “regulars,” I call them. Of course, family and friends, but also those who have specific needs, such as the return of sweet Emily Rea. As I talked with Him and prayed,…

The Water & The Kids
Tomorrow is our annual church fishing tournament. Well, actually, we call it our annual “day on the water”. For those who don’t like to fish, there is a boat that takes folks out to an island to shell and sun. It really is a wonderful day for kids of all ages. I enjoy this event…

Present Day Prayer
It’s Thursday, and the weekend is around the corner already. That’s not a bad thing. And…this weekend we have our 13th Annual fishing tournament at our church. This is a fun family event. Prizes for the kids and adults. Lots of food, lots of fun, and lots of stories about the “one that got away”.…

He Is the Same
I woke up several times last night. Not one of my more restful nights’ sleep. You know how it goes, you try to shut your mind off, but there are just those evenings when it doesn’t want to cooperate. I tried the standard things, counting sheep, deep breathing, counting backwards from 100, ya, no dice.…

The Banter
I’ve shared in previous little blog posts that we have a routine of going to breakfast with friends from church. It’s become so routine that other friends and clergy ask during coffee hour, “So where are you headed to for breakfast today?”. Most of the time, we don’t know yet; we haven’t gotten that far.…

Live Life
I read a beautiful story last night, posted by a friend on her social media page. It is a story of love, hope, and the ability of God’s children to live life. You see, her elderly father has been having health issues recently, including a stroke. He was scheduled to have surgery in the near…

The Losses
This morning, as I try to do on Saturday, I was a little slower getting started. That’s code word for sleeping in. I’ve shared here before how much I enjoy sitting on my lanai on Saturday mornings before the neighborhood gets going. It’s quiet, the wildlife is talking, the sky is a brilliant blue. This…

Share the Sky
Last night, a friend sent me a text message. It was a picture of the most beautiful sunset over the water. She said she had received it from a friend. When she saw it, she said, “It made me think of you”. That makes me smile. Later in the evening, I was checking the social…

Listen to the Pull
Have you ever experienced those moments when you’ve felt a pull to do something? Well, that’s pretty open-ended, isn’t it? Yesterday, we were in the midst of many things. Volunteers came to help us put our Sunday school rooms back in place. Almost a year ago, Hurricane Milton came through and filled many of them…

The Message Is Clear
Every now and then, I take a moment to look at the first little blogs that I wrote here. That was over three years ago. The blogs have changed since the beginning in many ways; however, I think the message is still very clear. Father is guiding the ramblings I put here each day. This…
