A Little Break

Last night, I told my husband I might post a song in the little blog today. I feel like the last week or so, these little blogs have been pretty heavy. Admittedly, there have been some things going on that have aided in that. I just thought a little break in that heaviness was needed.…

When He’s Not There

A few weeks ago, I shared about a little Jesus that a friend gave to me, well, to many while we were at an event. You can read more about it in this little blog. Well, last week, while at the outing for the 65+ golf group I work with, I carried little Jesus around…

When Lost

This past week has not been the best for many. The events that have occurred have shaken lives, and quite frankly, I believe, serve as a wake-up call for our nation. The very fabric of what our country was founded on has been tossed aside. As we remembered 9/11 and the acts of that horrific…

Father Weeps

I know how I feel as a parent and grandparent when my grown children and grandchildren have done things that go against what they know is right. I know how I feel when they make mistakes that could have been prevented. I feel sad, I feel hurt, and I wonder what I could have done…

For the Doers

Today is Labor Day. I don’t want to take up this little blog with the full history of Labor Day, but I did want to share this interesting summation of this last holiday of the summer, that I came across from Country Living magazine. “Simply put, Labor Day celebrates Americans who labor. It is a…

He Gives

I was reading a post from a friend on social media yesterday. She’s been through a difficult few months, yet through it all, her faith has kept her strong. I talked to her a few weeks ago, and she mentioned that she wasn’t sure why the Lord felt she was so strong, but she was…

Don’t Underestimate

I was having a conversation with a friend yesterday. We were discussing our busy schedules, juggling the various things in our day. We were discussing the general craziness out there these days, I swear there is a full moon like 6 out of the 7 days a week 🙂 . What was interesting was we…

The Old Days

Yesterday, after church, we joined our friends at breakfast (as has become the routine). We went to one of our four places of choice. When we were seated and had our coffee, we started looking at the menu. We all noticed that it was different. It was considerably smaller; they had taken many things off…

My Heart, Your Heart

A few mornings ago, I was sitting on the lanai having my regular a.m. check-in with Father. I was asking for prayers for my “regulars,” I call them. Of course, family and friends, but also those who have specific needs, such as the return of sweet Emily Rea. As I talked with Him and prayed,…

He Is the Same

I woke up several times last night. Not one of my more restful nights’ sleep. You know how it goes, you try to shut your mind off, but there are just those evenings when it doesn’t want to cooperate. I tried the standard things, counting sheep, deep breathing, counting backwards from 100, ya, no dice.…
