Simple Support

One of the most rewarding parts of my job is talking to our parishioners. I’ve learned so much about so many wonderful people. My days are filled with people stopping in for various reasons, committee meetings, bible study, attending a service, volunteering, and planning a life event like a wedding or funeral. I have the…

Impromptu is Good

Last night some friends of ours asked us to come by and watch the sunset on the way home. It was an impromptu invite that grew into having a light dinner while wiggling toes in the sand. I didn’t realize it until I sat in the beach chair, and looked around at the families and…

Touching the Fringe

A friend of mine oversees a website for his church that shares wonderful daily scripture in small snippets. The Bible can be overwhelming to read at times, it gets easier over time and the more you read it, the more it reads you. So, though I’m trying to read the Bible cover to cover, I…

Heavy Lifting

I’m pretty routine about going to my little gym. I’ve been a member there since not long after we moved here. Though it’s changed ownership, much of the clientele remained and our 6:00 a.m. group is pretty consistent.

Santa Needs Prayers

Friends, this morning I’m coming to you to ask for prayers. You see one of the nicest men I’ve had the pleasure of knowing is having heart surgery today. Yes, as the title of this little blog implies, he’s Santa. Well, his name is Paul, but he’s Santa to those of us who know him.…

Dragging

If you’re like me you usually wake up before the alarm goes off each morning. Ya, I’m usually out of bed at least 10 minutes before the alarm. I’ve heard others say that their bodies just know what time it is and even on the weekends they wake up at that same time. Well, I…

God’s Test?

I’ve been thinking lately about the situations that occur in this life, the places that we find ourselves in. Those situations can find us asking questions, wondering why Father is testing us. What did we do to deserve the situation we’re in? Why are we facing the challenges we’re facing? It’s not uncommon to feel…

Say I Won’t

Hi Friends, big day at church, and I’m running behind. So, here is a great tune to start your day! Enjoy the day and remember that Father is ALWAYS with us, He will never forsake us 🙂 .
