Sing with the Heavenly Hosts

I’ve been a country music fan for as long as I can remember. I’m a fan of the old stuff for sure. Don’t get me wrong, some of the new artists are awesome, I just like the oldies. I shared many little blogs ago that Johnny Cash is actually a cousin on my mom’s side. Maybe that’s where the…

Always a Parent

I remember when our kids were small, they would come to me or my husband when they got hurt or felt sick. I realize this is not something overly special just for us, all kids do that. Their first instinct is to go to where they feel safe, they go to a place of trust, and that…

Restore and Remember

We have several antique pieces of furniture in our home. These pieces belonged to my in-laws, and actually perhaps even their parents. We are having one of the pieces restored, actually dropping it off today with a man passionate about restoring pieces to their original beauty. Our goal is to make our way through all four of the…

Taking the Wheel

A few friends reached out to me after reading yesterday’s little blog. I guess I’m not alone in some of the situations I’m finding myself in, truly needing Father’s guidance I mean. I think in all the challenges we face in life there comes a time when you really have to relinquish things to Father. You have to…

Yes You Can

Over the past few days, I’ve been dealing with a few challenges. I do believe that Father puts us in certain situations because He has a plan, He and He alone knows what we need more than we do. I believe He places us in the middle of things to make a difference, for either us to…

What it Means to Me

Lately, I’ve been noticing something. Well, that’s kind of a wide-open observation, isn’t it. There are many things to notice daily, so can I just pick one here? Ok, seriously though, I’ve noticed that I’m seeing more people wearing or displaying a cross. Men, women, and even teenage kids. Yesterday at my little gym, a new “kid” started at the…

What Would Happen If…

I guess that’s kind of a loaded question, isn’t it? What would happen if… I found myself thinking that when I was sitting with Father this morning. I thought about all the things going on in this world and couldn’t help but wonder what would happen if… For instance, what would happen if each of the nations involved…

Sometimes We Just Need…

Some days I think it’s best to just say little prayers. This morning when I was sitting on the patio, (in my sweatshirt, jeans and fuzzy slippers, yes it’s cold here), I was thinking about things I wanted, and needed to do today. Typical Saturday chores like going to the grocery store for instance come to mind. However,…

Be Still…

This morning I made my way out to my patio to spend time with Father. As I mentioned yesterday, I needed to get back to having a conversation with Him rather than just reciting prayers. My relationship with him has kind of been on “auto-pilot” for the past few weeks and that isn’t where it should be. I…

Reconnecting

Has anyone else been experiencing the flying by of the days lately? I know there is a saying the older we get the faster time goes by. I get it now for sure. When I was little it seemed like it took forever for some things, like the school year to end. Now, I’m like, um, where did the…
