Christmas Memories

Something has struck me recently, just over the last few weeks. I have noticed on social media that people are playing a little remember when. It seems to me like this is occurring more this year than in past years, or maybe I’m just noticing it more. I see old pictures of past Christmas’, families…

Ya, We’re Close Enough

My husband and I were talking at dinner last night, trying to nail down things we needed to get done this weekend. It’s a busy weekend on tap and we’re trying to squeeze in Christmas shopping. You know how it goes, if you’re going to get gifts where they need to be, you gotta get…

From Why to All Will Be Well

We are all faced with challenges at times in our lives. Well, now there is a very “duh” kind of statement, right? Sometimes those challenges come in a slow build-up, sometimes they come totally out of the blue and blindside us. Regardless, they come and many times we are left just asking why. I have…

Hit Your Stride

Yesterday was an interesting day of sorts. The restoration of areas of our campus continues following Hurricane Milton, and they’ve moved into repair of our offices. Sooo, things are a little messy. My office for instance has all the furniture moved to the middle so they can replace drywall and such. It’s disruptive but I…

It Can be Mended

A few days ago I shared with you all that I broke a special Christmas ornament. I guess you could call it an heirloom of sorts, which I made as a child. You can read more about that in this little blog. I was not a happy camper on Sunday that is for sure. Well, the…

The Carol of Our Father

We have an unspoken rule in our house that we don’t listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving. Now granted, usually first thing the next day I’ve got our favorite carols playing. It’s always enjoyable when that one song comes on and I’m like, “Ah, I love this one!”. Over the past few years, I’ve…

More Thanks

It’s an exciting week, not only are we celebrating Thanksgiving tomorrow, we are celebrating the return to services in our church this weekend. It’s been a busy few months since Hurricane Milton came through and my goodness I’ve learned a ton. I never thought I’d be able to talk about HVAC systems, floor restoration, drywall…

Just Make it a Good Day

Morning friends. Taking a break today and heading over to the farmer’s market. Yes our farmer’s markets are in the winter here in Florida. It’s a brisk 55 degrees and I’m bundled up, but looking forward to coffee and seeing the local farmers again 🙂 . Today I just wish you a little relaxation, some…

Does He Test

I was thinking about this the other day, wondering, does Father put us in situations to test us, to see how we will respond? I have to admit the answer to that might be above my pay grade. I think it’s a fair question to ask and I’m sure it can make for a very…

Yes Jesus Loves Me

Well yes, yes He does. Jesus does love me, He loves everyone regardless of how we may falter. This morning as I sat down to write this little blog, you all know I did what I usually do…asked how best to share His message. However, unlike most mornings, this morning, I didn’t feel or hear…
