When Music Comes to Life

Last night, my husband and I had a date night. We went to see one of my favorite groups, Mercy Me, in concert. We’ve seen them before, many years ago, and I was just as excited to see them this time. We were supposed to see them last October, but Hurricane Milton forced them to…

The Power of Me

I feel pretty blessed for many, many reasons. I’ve got a wonderful husband, beautiful kids, grandkids, and friends that have become like family. I get to live in what we call paradise, and most importantly, I’m blessed with a loving relationship with Father. When I think about His children who don’t know Him, who don’t…

Unknown Laughter

Yesterday during our weekly team meeting we had a little fun with our Rector. Yes, it was April Fool’s Day, and though I’m usually not a fan of jokes commemorating this day, one of my team members had put some thought into one that was harmless. For the approximately two minutes it took for the…

He Brings Us Back

Yesterday morning I was bustling around trying to get out the door for my workout and then on to an appointment from there. Leaving the gym to work or other appointments has its challenges.

Coming to You

Ah, the joys of writing this little blog. I love sharing thoughts here each day, having Father fill me with whatever ends up here. Sometimes it overflows and I have to force myself to stop so people don’t feel like they are reading a novel. Other times just simple thoughts come to mind. As I…

Saturday Afternoon

Yesterday in this little blog I talked about our lives belonging to Father, that this life is about Him not about me. This life is a gift and all the things we share while here, also…gifts from God. Those include family and friends. At the end of yesterday’s little blog, I encouraged everyone to get…

Opening and Closing Doors

I’ve shared here in previous little blogs that I have a close friend, a priest, who shares a scripture reading and morning reflection each day with me. I’ve come to start my day with these, even before I have my morning chat with Father. I time things so that I can read the message from the…

Music and Memories

A few days ago in this little blog, I talked about the gifts and talents so many of God’s children have. I’m in awe of some people I have the pleasure of knowing, and the skills they have been blessed with. Yesterday afternoon, we finished our seasonal concert series at church. Our music director seeks…

Skills and Talents

I’ve shared in this little blog that we are having some remodeling done in our condo. As I’ve mentioned we chose to rent a place while the work is being done, and our last few trips through our place tell us, ya we made the right decision 🙂 . Yesterday, after work, we stopped by…

Unsettled

I mentioned a few weeks ago that my husband and I are having some remodeling done in our home. Rather than live at home through the process, we chose to rent a place not far from our condo. We stop in daily on the way home to check on the progress. It’s been slower than…
