Midweek Boost
Many years ago, I got into a habit of posting a camel picture on social media on Wednesdays, reminding everyone that it was humpday and to make it a great one. It really did become “a thing”, even to the point that people would send camel memorabilia to me. I have a collection of stuffed…

Keeping Him Close
Over the past few days, I’ve felt a little “off”. I wasn’t quite sure what was going on. I just felt like I was in a funk, nothing seemed right and I was just going through the motions. Yesterday afternoon was no different. I made my way to the pool after church, just in time…

Walk With Me
This morning I was having my quiet time with Father. It was quieter than usual on the lanai, given that it’s a weekday. As I sat and prayed, I asked Him to help me with the message I could share here this morning. Almost instantly, I heard, “Walk with me”. “Thank you, Lord, got it”,…

It’s All In A Verse
There are some pretty amazing verses in the Bible. Well, I guess that might be the understatement of the century 🙂 . This morning I read the daily text I receive from my friend, who is a priest. His daily scripture passages and reflections help start my day with a simple study of God’s word.…

Pastimes
Back in the day, I loved to sew. I made my kids’ dresses when they were little. Their Christening gowns, Christmas and Easter dresses, even the wedding dress for our oldest. I made various items for our home: curtains and table runners, pillows, and yes, the dog bed for our granddog. I can’t remember the…

Noodling and Daybreak
Funny title for today’s little blog, don’t ya think? Yesterday, my day started off with a shelf in our laundry room trying to jump onto my head. I went in to grab some Ziplocs from the storage basket, and literally the shelf the basket was sitting on came out of the wall into my arms.…

A Little Book Comforting Prayer
I’ve mentioned here in this little blog before that my husband gave me a little book called “The Practice of Religion”. Inside the cover, it reads, “A short manual of instructions and devotions”. It is indeed a book of instructions about our services, special occasions, and situations. If you were new to our denomination, this…

Through the Rubble
Last week, I mentioned in this little blog that I wouldn’t spend too much time giving you all the play-by-play on reconstructing our little church. However, I’m sure I’ll find a message at times for this little blog during the process. I also know that when I need support and/or prayer, this is the best…

Making It Harder
Have you noticed how we humans sometimes make too much of things? We overthink; we make things harder than they need to be; we take on too much, or we just, in general, overreact to situations. You see, I can say these things because I’m exhibit A in all of those situations 🙂 . I…

Rememberance
Today is an anniversary. It was one year ago that my brother-in-law Mac walked into the arms of Jesus. It doesn’t seem like it should be a year already. It feels like just yesterday. We’re going to do a few special things today as we remember him. My husband wants to drive his Mustang, which…
