Be Intentional
For Lent, I committed to reading more of my Bible. I’ve been intentional about it, sitting down and even moving things out of the way on my desk, so that my Bible is the focus. Many years ago, I was listening to a podcast, which was a Bible study of sorts. Anyway, at one point,…

Subtle Pep Talk
This morning, I noticed that the rest of the community was very quiet. Of course, it was dark outside; it usually is when we get up during the week. But this morning, even the neighbors who are usually up when we are weren’t. Homes were still dark, and as I sat out on the lanai,…

Put Me In Coach
So right about now, I’m guessing you have the chorus from the John Fogerty song from about 40 years ago running through your head. No, that wasn’t my intent, but ever since I thought about the message for today’s little blog post, I must admit, it’s been running through mine. I’ve shared here before that…

Sharing the Load
My husband and I have been together for a very long time. We’ve settled into a routine when it comes to our homelife, especially when it comes to the chores and upkeep. We each have our own “responsibilities,” I guess you could say. Over time, we’ve each taken on chores, and now it’s just the…

The Gift of a Brother
Today is a day to celebrate. Well, every day is a day to celebrate in my opinion 🙂 . Today, though, we celebrate my brother’s birthday. I am the baby of the family and have two older brothers. So, as you can probably guess, growing up, I was what we used to refer to as…

Raincoat of Armor

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…

Don’t Let It
It’s been cold here the past few weeks in Florida. Now, before all you northerners give me a what for, let me continue 🙂 . If you’ve been following this little blog for long, you know that I sit on my lanai in the morning and evening to spend quiet time with Father. Well, the…

Comfortable
Take a moment to think about the relationships in your life. The relationship you have with your spouse, family, and close friends. Are you comfortable in those relationships? I’ve mentioned here before that we go to breakfast on Sunday mornings following church, with some good friends of ours. It’s kind of a joke now about…

The Funk
I’m not sure about everyone else, but over the past few days, I’ve found myself in a “funk”. Maybe it’s the cold weather. Yes, I realize that we can’t complain because we’re not in the sub-zero temperatures here in SW Florida. However, it has been cold here, and this weekend we will be even colder.…

Watching
There have been times in this life when I’ve had people tell me they feel like Father is testing them. I’m not one to believe that He does that. I don’t see the Lord creating us, His children, to test us. I do, however, believe that He watches how we handle situations. Because of our…
