On Your Knees
This morning a song has been playing in my head. You know how that goes, when that process starts, you are singing it to yourself for hours, or days. I’m not sure why this particular song and it’s only one verse that keeps repeating itself. When I went outside to spend some morning prayer time…

What Settles Your Soul
We’re in the rainy season here in SW Florida. What does that mean? Well, it means that right around 3:00 p.m. every day, a thunderstorm will roll in, dump a lot of rain, and then about an hour later, the sun will shine again. You used to be able to set your watch by it.…

Eyes for Emily
Usually, when I sit outside on our lanai to have my morning chat with Father, it’s quiet. However, in the last week or so the bubbler in our little lake has been running consistently. So, this morning as I sat and listened to the water, thoughts of Emily Rea came to mind. I’m thinking that…

A Wee One
Over the years we have come to know many of our kids’ friends. Some of them became lifelong friends, spending time at our house and meeting us for gatherings. Yes over time, some of their friends well they are close enough for us to think of them as our own kids. If you’re a parent…

But I Wanted
Recently I’ve been having conversations with friends about various events in their lives. One was in the middle of a deal to open her own business. Another was planning a lengthy trip. In each case, my friends had plans and hopes around what they were working on. One to work for herself in an industry…

Just Get Me Through
A friend and I were talking via text yesterday afternoon about the crazy schedules in our lives right now. It seems like we have just gotten up and before we know it the sun is setting, and the day has flown by. We’re juggling work, and home life, weekdays and weekends are filled, and the…

Father in the Pool
Yesterday in this little blog I shared that a group of friends had put together a surprise for a mutual friend/mentor of ours. We all have gathered here in SW Florida, some coming from as far away as California to spend time with a wonderful woman who has touched our lives. I think it’s safe…
