The Manger Revisited

This morning I found myself thinking about the manger where baby Jesus lay. I think it’s because yesterday I listened to the Christmas song, “Joseph’s Lullaby”. If you’ve never heard it, I encourage you to give a listen today. It’s a beautiful song, and it puts you in the manger, or at least it did…

Concentration

Saturday, yep, you all know it, my favorite day, and during the holiday season, I love having the special traditions to focus on. This weekend is traditionally when our family gets the tree and decorates our home. We’ll be tackling that task for certain 🙂 . It’s also Cookie Sunday at church, where the kids,…

From The Mouth of Babes

Over the past few days, I’ve focused on children in this little blog. You all have lifted prayers for some little ones going through health challenges, and those prayers are being answered. Thank you again for taking the time to lift Joey and Briggs. Please keep them coming for continued healing. Like many, I’ve had…

Community of Faith

When I started this little blog three years ago, I thought it would be a nice way to share some great pictures of sunrises and sunsets along with a scripture verse. It was meant to be a way to just say thanks to Father for the many gifts He provides every day. Now here I…

The Atlas

We were fortunate to spend the Thanksgiving holiday with family up north. It was wonderful to be together, catching up on everyone’s happenings, sharing old stories, and just being family. As I’m sure most gatherings were, we got loud and rowdy, ate too much, and had an awesome time. We were even fortunate to run…

Every Day Is Thanksgiving

Well, let the Thanksgiving prep begin. Here we are, Thanksgiving Eve, and I’ve already seen on social media, friends who are filling the fridge with homemade cranberry sauce, coconut cakes, gravy, and the like. I can almost smell the deliciousness of them all. I, too, will be in the kitchen today, after I brave the…

Traditionals

My goodness, we are only two days away from Thanksgiving. We’re making our final trek into our old hometown today, and my mind has shifted to the fun of preparing the Thanksgiving meal. It’s a little different this year than when we lived here years ago. In the past, we hosted Thanksgiving; we called it…

It’s Just

If you’ve read the last few blog posts, you know that we’re heading to spend Thanksgiving with our family up north. We’re making the drive, and admittedly, it’s not the most fun, but we’ve had a good time chatting and playing some remember when. We snuck in a lunch with our Godson yesterday on the…

He Has Other Plans

This morning, I got another reminder that I really am not in control. Newsflash, I really do need to remember that, it makes for easier days 🙂 . Last week at work, our IT company did a security update to our system, including our email system. We have to have all the necessary processes in…

He Will Provide

This morning, I was sitting on the lanai (a Florida term for patio), spending my daily quiet time with Father. The fountain on our little lake had not yet come on, so it was indeed peaceful. I was watching as one of our many long-legged, pointy-beaked Florida birds was strolling along the bank. Before I…
