Bond of the Band

Yesterday as I was headed to the Blessing of the Pets at our church I drove by one of the larger high schools in town. Their football field faces the road I was on, and a familiar sight caught my eye. When I saw it I had to roll down my window to hear the…

Thank You’s and Pets

Well to say that I’m a little overwhelmed with the loving and encouraging comments on this little blog, the text messages, emails, and social media messages, I received from yesterday’s little blog post, yes that would be an understatement. As I said yesterday, I’m blessed beyond words. I’m kind of speechless, which doesn’t happen often…

The Broken Becomes Stronger

I’ve been reading the book written by Chad Hymas, “Doing What Must be Done”. Chad was the keynote speaker at our conference a few weeks ago and to say he is a testament to Faith, strength, and perseverance would be a slight understatement.

There are days when a song just keeps playing in my head. Maybe that’s Father putting reminders out there for me. Well, today was one of those days. For some reason I woke up hearing this song in my head. I just figured it was God saying, just share this today. So, you all get…

Sitting in the Rain

It’s the rainy season here in SW Florida. Well, I should say, it’s supposed to be the rainy season here. You see it has been anything but this season, we’ve had a noticeable lack of rain. Our poor ponds and lakes are showing signs of the lack of water. The grass as well is starting…

When You’re Not Good Enough

This morning as I sat with Father for my morning chat, I asked Him to give me words to express what I was feeling. Sometimes I know what I want to say but just not quite how to say it. As I sat and shared my thoughts I found that I talked myself right through…

Land that I Love

If you dropped in on this little blog yesterday you know that I was enjoying a day of a little pampering and downtime. Believe it or not, I stuck to that plan, which is something to be said indeed 🙂 . I got the hair and toes taken care of, did manage to read a…

Praying and Pampering

Sounds like a nice name for a new business doesn’t it, praying and pampering, hmmmm 🙂 . I was just thinking about what was on my docket today and that catchy title popped into my head. I spent some time with Father this morning on the lanai, and as I’ve said before in this little…
