It’s All In A Verse

There are some pretty amazing verses in the Bible. Well, I guess that might be the understatement of the century 🙂 . This morning I read the daily text I receive from my friend, who is a priest. His daily scripture passages and reflections help start my day with a simple study of God’s word.…

Not Sure

I’m not sure what to write. I’m not sure what to pray. I’m not sure what to say. Have you ever found yourself in one of these situations? Maybe you’ve argued with a friend or loved one. You’re not sure what to say to apologize or how to make amends. Some days I sit down…

Pastimes

Back in the day, I loved to sew. I made my kids’ dresses when they were little. Their Christening gowns, Christmas and Easter dresses, even the wedding dress for our oldest. I made various items for our home: curtains and table runners, pillows, and yes, the dog bed for our granddog. I can’t remember the…

Noodling and Daybreak

Funny title for today’s little blog, don’t ya think? Yesterday, my day started off with a shelf in our laundry room trying to jump onto my head. I went in to grab some Ziplocs from the storage basket, and literally the shelf the basket was sitting on came out of the wall into my arms.…

A Little Book Comforting Prayer

I’ve mentioned here in this little blog before that my husband gave me a little book called “The Practice of Religion”. Inside the cover, it reads, “A short manual of instructions and devotions”.

Talents for Good

We’re all good at something. I have to admit I’ve never understood the term “hidden talent”. We either have talents or not; I don’t know how they can be hidden. Ok that was a lot of garbly gook in those sentences, wasn’t it? I do think it’s interesting how people have talents. Take my husband,…

Through the Rubble

Last week, I mentioned in this little blog that I wouldn’t spend too much time giving you all the play-by-play on reconstructing our little church. However, I’m sure I’ll find a message at times for this little blog during the process. I also know that when I need support and/or prayer, this is the best…

Making It Harder

Have you noticed how we humans sometimes make too much of things? We overthink; we make things harder than they need to be; we take on too much, or we just, in general, overreact to situations. You see, I can say these things because I’m exhibit A in all of those situations 🙂 . I…

Promise of a New Day

Yesterday things were a little off. If you read this little blog, you know it was the first anniversary of the day my brother-in-law went to be with Jesus. Throughout the day, things felt a little off. I know that was the processing of the day. There were many moments of silence as my husband…

Rememberance

Today is an anniversary. It was one year ago that my brother-in-law Mac walked into the arms of Jesus. It doesn’t seem like it should be a year already. It feels like just yesterday. We’re going to do a few special things today as we remember him. My husband wants to drive his Mustang, which…
