What We Make It
Yesterday we marked the start of Lent, the time leading up to the crucifixion, and more importantly, the resurrection of Jesus. This time is what me make it. Well, that’s kind of flip, some might think. Actually, though, it truly is what we make it. We can choose to treat this time like every other…

Reflect and Recommit
Today, we begin the Lenten season. The 40 days before Easter (not including Sundays). A time of reflection and repentance. A time to dig deeper into our hearts, opening even more space for our Lord to live through us. In this little blog, I share a prayer I read this morning. O Merciful Father,Today I…

Not a Part-Time Job
I guess when you read the title of today’s little blog, you might be thinking I’m coming here to talk about work. Well, I am, sort of. I heard something this morning on my walk, while listening to a podcast, and boy, it struck me. The host said, “Jesus did not offer us a part-time…

Raincoat of Armor
My husband and I were chatting last night about the possibility of rain. We so need it here in SW Florida, well, the whole state needs it for that matter. We have some serious drought action happening. Fortunately, the forecast was calling for rain during the evening hours. This morning, when I got up, I…

Simple Gifts
This morning, I find myself thinking about yesterday and just feeling grateful. It was Valentine’s Day, and of course, I’m so grateful for the love of my life, my husband. We exchanged cards as we always do; we’re past the point of needing to get physical gifts. We have what we need in each other…

Love…Every Day
Another Valentine’s Day rolls around. A day when we celebrate love. A day filled with hearts, cards, chocolate, flowers, and all the things associated with love. We share these little gifts to show those we love that we care. What would happen, though, if we approached every day the way we do Valentine’s Day? I…

Just Another Day
I just realized that today is Friday the 13th. Ya, I used to wonder about all those superstitions. As my relationship with Christ has grown, all those have fallen away. Isn’t it amazing what we, God’s children, manage to concoct to push us further away from Him and His love? Let’s just look at today…

Laugh at Yourself
I believe Father gave us the gift of laughter for many reasons. You’ve probably heard that it takes fewer facial muscles to laugh than to frown. Well, that alone should tell us we should be laughing more. I got home a little later than usual last night, to say it was a strange day, well,…

Come to Me
I’m headed out the door early this morning. I have a big project I’m in the middle of at work right now (redoing our website), and well, it has my mind going more than it should be. As I sat with Father this morning and prayed for guidance and for Him to light my path…

Responding to Faith
As I was walking this morning, I was listening to a music broadcast that CeCe Winans did many years ago. I enjoyed it because she was not only singing, but in between songs she was sharing about her relationship with Father. She talked about having Him in her life from the beginning. She shared how…
