Above All

Sometimes you find a simple song that just says it all and touches you when you need it. I like to think that is Father dropping in like He usually does when we need Him. I’ve shared before that I don’t have any musical talent, I can’t carry a tune in a bucket, and reading…

He Brings Me Here

I’ve said it many times before in writing this little blog, I’m truly blessed to have so many reach out to me to say thank you. I get text messages and emails from people just saying thank you for the words or the message of a particular little blog post. I never know when my…

His Presence

As you all know, I have a pretty solid routine of sitting with Father each morning and evening. I sit out on our lanai regardless of the temperature and humidity and just enjoy being there with Him. Early in the morning, the birds are just starting to stir and I feel His presence through them.…

Some Gave All

Today we remember those who have dedicated their lives to protecting this nation and the freedoms we all enjoy. In the beginning, many had no choice, however, most did it willingly, and some paid the ultimate price in doing so. I offer this prayer that we lifted yesterday at church to all those who have…

Mopping…ugh – Or was It?

I’m guessing I’m not unlike many people in that housework is one of my least favorite things to do. Now granted, it’s just my husband and I, so admittedly our house is pretty tidy most of the time. My office occasionally looks like the Tasmanian devil ripped through it, especially if I’m planning an event,…

The Garden

The past few weeks I’ve been enjoying watching the updates from friends and family as they plant their gardens. For many, it’s actually their first time putting in a garden, and it’s been fun to watch their excitement grow as their crop grows. Many of my friends are starting gardens for the first time with…

Kindness Carries

I’ve been recalling some instances that occurred while driving home from visiting family this past weekend. Those recollections give me hope, and help me to understand even more how Father is truly in our midst, guiding His children. My husband and I are a little older than when we used to make those “straight drive-through”…

The Backroads

The last few days my husband and I have been traveling. Our grandson graduated from high school this past weekend. You can learn a little more about him in this little blog. We had a wonderful time visiting family and friends back home, and the graduation was so great. Our grandson was awesome as he…

From NICU to New Graduate

We all know how quickly time seems to fly by, especially these days. I remember as a kid just wishing my hardest for Friday to come so we could have the weekend off from school, and wishing for the school year to end so we could have the summer to play with friends. Now, I…

Strawberries and Trust

This weekend is our second annual strawberry shortcake event at church to celebrate Pentecost, (the celebration of when the Holy Spirit descends upon the Apostles). Last year was our first in making the shortcakes by hand and serving this classic treat during our coffee hours following each service. It was a hit and we’re back…
