Through the Fog

This morning, I was surprised to wake up to what looked like the San Francisco Bay. The fog was so thick that I couldn’t even see the other side of our small lake. I made my way outside to have my morning chat with Father, and smiled as I realized how peaceful it was with…

Their Future Glory

I’ve been reading the book of John over the past few weeks. Of all the Gospels, I have to admit, it is my favorite. I think I’ve shared here before that the Bible I use is The Founders Bible. It’s a wonderful version as it weaves together not only the word of God, but His…

Sun and a Psalm

I have to admit, I’m glad we are back to having sunlight later in the day. It gives us time to still enjoy being outside when we get home from work. I don’t feel like the day has been scooped out from under me. Now there is that little thing about getting to work in…

Hard to Describe

My husband and I left work intentionally at an earlier time than usual. Notice I didn’t say we left early, 🙂 . We left with a purpose, to enjoy happy hour at one of our local establishments. When we arrived, there were two seats in a great spot, lively conversation with other couples, wonderful nosh,…

What Will it be Like

Have you ever given thought to what Heaven will be like? Whoa, that’s a heavy question on a Monday morning, isn’t it 🙂 . Where in the world did that come from? My husband and I were having a conversation last night as we were enjoying a little nosh before dinner, taking in the beautiful…

Be Intentional

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…
