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…

We Can Do This
Yesterday I was moved by many things. The 9/11 remembrances honored the many lives lost 24 years ago. Our country was forever changed on 9/11/01, and now, so many years later, we still honor those who never came home that day. That is a testament to our faith and love for God’s children. I was…

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…

I Choose You
I think I’ve mentioned here before that a friend of mine sends me an inspirational text each morning. He has been conducting a comprehensive study of the Anglican Catechism over the past few months. He’s broken it down piece by piece, in just short snippets. It really is perfect. Yesterday’s snippet was about prayer. I…

Trust in Prayer
Yesterday, I came here to this little blog to ask for prayer. You always come through when I need you. Over the years, we’ve prayed for babies, we’ve prayed for those about to go home to the Lord, we’ve prayed for victims of natural disasters, and we continue to pray for the return of sweet…

Prayer for Healing
I’m on the road again this week. I’ve talked before about the 65-and-over golf group that I work with. They have two events each year, and this week is their annual fall club championship 🙂 . I love working with this group; they’ve become like an extended family to me. This morning, friends, I just…

The Feeling
I spent last week with old friends, hugged a ton, laughed a ton, shed a few tears, and soaked up the feeling of what true friendship brings. I felt the Lord at work in so many ways last week. I mean, we started every day with “Prayer and Pledge”, so how could He not be…

What We Need
Sometimes we pray and pray and pray, and it seems like Father isn’t hearing us. Sometimes we think that He’s not answering our prayers. Sometimes we lose hope. What I’ve been learning more and more since my relationship with our Lord has strengthened is that He gives us what we need, which many times is…

Tiny Jesus
Last night, a friend of mine gave me a little figurine of Jesus. Even in His little stature, I could feel the comfort of Him being in my hand. I guess it sounds a little weird, but I truly mean it. When you look at his little face and into His eyes, you can feel…

Father and Friendships
I’m spending this week with some old friends. We’re celebrating the 20th anniversary of the association I was a part of in many ways for more than 15 years. I’m looking forward to seeing old friends, hugging many necks, and celebrating a community that has grown so much over the years. As I look at…
