Picture This

Like most couples, we have many pictures around our home. Pictures of kids and grandkids growing up over the years. Pictures with friends, pictures of my husband and I at all stages of our life placed all throughout our home. We also have various pictures of our parents to round out the displays. Last night,…

The Pillar of Prayer

If you are like me, you offer prayers to Father many times a day. Some days I offer more than others, depending on what is happening. I guess we’re all probably that way. If things are going well in our lives, then we enjoy and have that occasional chat with Him. However, when things get…

Clearing the Haze

Here in SW Florida, we’ve been fighting a drought for a while. Even through the rainy season last year, we didn’t get enough to bring our water tables back to normal. Even in our little community where we have sprinklers that water plants daily, we have patches of grass that have gone dormant and have…

Sewing the Seeds

Yesterday I headed out early to spend a few hours with a group of women I’ve come to know more closely over the past year. Now, if you’ve been reading this little blog for long you know that I’m pretty partial to my Saturday mornings. I tend to get started a little later, (that’s code…

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…

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…
