Tulips in Winter

Now there’s an interesting title for this little blog. Yesterday while grocery shopping I stopped in the floral section. It’s right inside the front door and it’s fun to look for things that might brighten up the home, especially in winter. I love to have fresh flowers around the house, it just makes things “homier”.…

Prayer Works

You know it really does. Prayer works. I think there are times when we feel our prayers are not being answered. We don’t see an instant response from Father so we assume He’s not listening or He’s choosing not to answer our prayer. Trust me, I’ve been there. What I’ve learned over time though, especially…

When the Heart Is Heavy

Even though we have a relationship with Christ, share everything with Him, and give ourselves fully to Him, that doesn’t mean there won’t be times when we are sad. We are human, and Father doesn’t expect us not to have emotions. Today friends, my heart is heavy. I have a friend, (I won’t share their…

A Clear Mind

You all know that I sit on my lanai (Florida term for patio) each morning and evening and spend time with Father. We have a small lake behind us with a fountain that runs during waking hours, usually 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m. The fountain helps to lessen the volume of residents who may be…

The Quiet Work

Last night my husband and I spent much time in the kitchen. We stopped by the store on the way home so we were a little later than usual with our dinner routine. We usually find ourselves working side by side in the kitchen making dinner, chatting about the kids, upcoming things on our calendar,…

A Classic for a Sunday

Thoughts From the Pedicure Chair

It’s the weekend and you all know this little blog usually comes out later in the morning. I tend to sleep in a bit, grab coffee, and enjoy a little longer time with Father before sitting down to share thoughts. Well, this morning I had an early appointment for a little pampering. So, I was…

Step Away and Into Me

I had gotten into a routine in 2024 where I only looked at social media once per day. I would glance at it in the morning to catch up with the happenings of friends and family, wish happy birthdays, or catch a glimpse of some news headlines. Over the past month though, I’ve slid back…

Resolution or Commitment

It’s a new year and with that comes all those New Year’s resolutions. You know those decisions we make to do or not do something for the year. The start of the new year brings new hope, a chance for a fresh start, an opportunity to do things differently. If you are like me, you’ve…

Reflections on 2024

I guess it’s pretty common to reflect on the year as it comes to a close. Or do we really reflect on what has happened? I think most of the time, we all just look forward to a new year ahead, a new beginning, and a chance for things to be different. Many times we,…
