Start it Right

It’s going to be a busy day ahead at our Christmas Market. I’m heading out the door to get an early start on some things, and I almost skipped writing this little blog. I figured you all would understand, and then I realized, um, I always have time for Jesus! I’m guessing He knows what…

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…

Don’t Blink

I’ve mentioned in this little blog before how quickly time seems to be moving these days. Like weren’t we just ringing in the new year, and here we are just weeks from Thanksgiving? I don’t know about you but it seems like I’ve just walk into the office, then the next time I look up it’s 3:30…

Stop and Look Around

Over the past week or so I’ve been seeing some beautiful pictures on social media. Everyone is posting pictures of the change of the seasons. Now some of those changes, while beautiful, hmm, I’m ok with seeing from a distance, (the snow for instance). I’ve been seeing gorgeous pictures of the fall colors in the…

The Ladies

Yesterday was our final day of preparing products for our booth at the upcoming Christmas Market we are hosting. This is the 68th annual event for us and I think the Gourmet Canners have had a space almost since its beginning. I have to admit I was a little worried that we would get everything…

Happiness in a Tune

As I wrote in this little blog last week, I had family in town last weekend. My brother and sister-in-law were here for a few days and as I shared, we had a wonderful time. We took them for a sunset cruise around Naples and after a short rain shower, watched a beautiful sunset. As…

A Prayer for a Nation

As I mentioned in this little blog yesterday, regardless of the outcome of the elections, I was pretty sure the sun would rise on a new day, and so it has. There was something interesting about yesterday. Throughout the day of course people were posting on social media that they had voted. What I found…

Prove Them Wrong

The lead-up to today, election day 2024, has been something for sure. We’ve heard in the media if either candidate wins the country will fall into turmoil and will cease to exist as a nation. We’ve been told if this candidate or that candidate wins there will be riots and destruction in the streets. Americans…

The Time Together

We’ve had family in town for the last few days. My brother, (who you all prayed for a few weeks ago), and sister-in-law came in for a long weekend. It was time spent doing the things you like to do when guests are in your Southwest FL town. We did a sunset cruise, ate at…

Turning It Over

Ya, it’s true, there are times I have a hard time letting go of things and letting others help. It’s my type A head I guess. There comes a point though when you just don’t have a choice, you realize that you can’t do it all, (shocker I know), and you have to rely on…
