Blessings

I’ve realized lately that Father brings people into our lives for a reason. You might be thinking, “Really, you just realized that?”. Well, no, I’ve known that for a long time and have even said it to many people. I suppose what I mean is that I’m realizing how blessed I am to have certain…

Just for Fun

Something a little different here in the little blog this morning. We have a new day before us, lots of opportunities, lots of blessings, and much to be thankful for. This morning, I asked Father to “fill me up” with His love today, so much so that it pours out to others. We gotta have…

Keep Doing

This morning I changed things up a bit. My usual routine is to spend time with Father on the lanai, having a morning chat, so to speak. Then I make my way to my desk to put some ramblings here in this little space. Then I’ll head out to ride my bike. Well, I had…

What Speaks to You

You all know that at the end of each little blog, I share a scripture verse. Over the past three years that I’ve been writing this little blog, I’ve come across verses that have truly spoken to me. I find myself digging into the chapter of the Bible where the verse is taken from. In…

It Takes Time

One of the things I miss the most about living in a condo is having a large yard with an area for a garden, and lots of flower beds and pots. I used to love the spring and summer months, when I could just dig in the dirt. Now granted, I was never a master…

When Two Become One

I had planned to write a short little blog this morning about our special day. You see, today is our wedding anniversary 🙂 . I’ve known my better half for over 40 years and can’t think of anyone else I would have rather spent those years with. Yes, we’ve had our challenges, all married couples…

Tending the Garden

We have a small area on the west side of our parish hall. It’s located in the children’s wing of our campus, and we call it the Children’s Garden. Within this garden are plants that were purposefully planted there. Plants and trees that have wonderful smells, feel soft to the touch, or, better yet, bear…

Small Labors

One of the very first little blogs I wrote, almost three years ago now, was about taking care of the linens in our church. It’s timely I guess because just this morning I was ironing the linens to take with me to church. It reminded me of that little blog and I thought today might…

How ‘Bout Brunch

Later this morning, we’re going to treat ourselves to brunch with friends we haven’t seen in quite a while. Actually, that’s not entirely true. We see them almost every week. They are neighbors and we’ll chat briefly while their fur baby is walking them in the mornings 🙂 . However, we haven’t been able to…

The Stained Glass

We’ve been working on this little outbuilding next to our church. It’s being transformed into what we are calling the All Souls Chapel. You see, on the East and West sides of our church are sacred churchyards. These are blessed grounds where parishioners have chosen to have their ashes placed upon their death. The churchyards…
