When Ops Mind Meets Emotion

This is the final week in our little church before the construction gets underway. Yesterday, during the service, our clergy referenced several times, “Next Sunday we’ll hold our final services in this building”. I have to admit, hearing those words made it all real. Over the past months, I’ve shared about our project to take…

Love Your People

A dear friend of mine is going through a difficult time. I’ve spoken of her often here, and today I just ask for continued prayers for her family. You see, she is Emily Rea’s aunt. Unfortunately, they had to say goodbye to another family member over the past few days. Yesterday on social media, my…

A Village of Skills

We’re just a little over a week away from our final Sunday in our little church before construction begins. This week, we cleared the final approvals from the city and submitted all the necessary paperwork to obtain permits. Trust me, the permitting process is for another blog, if ever 🙂 . As I’ve mentioned here…

A Simple Soul

Like the rest of the world, yesterday afternoon I heard the news that Dolly Parton had passed away. I was sad because I knew she had been struggling with health issues for a while. One of my friends said, “She hasn’t been well since her husband passed away”. She was a lovely woman. My goodness,…

Ironing With God

This morning I spent some time ironing. Unlike many people, I don’t mind it. It’s actually relaxing to me, and this morning even more so. You see, I was ironing altar linens. One of my very first little blogs was about ironing these linens. You see, there is a method to it. They are folded…

His Prayer

If you’ve been reading this little blog for very long, you know that I’ve come here at times sharing how I don’t have a clue what to write some days. I try to jot down notes when something comes to mind during the day, or when a situation occurs that is clearly God at work.…

He Could Have

On the way home from dinner last night, my husband and I had an interesting conversation. I have to admit, I’m not quite sure how we got to the subject, but I’m glad we did. I kind of had an epiphany, so to speak. We were discussing the struggles or challenges that people face. I…

Roll It All Together

We’re on the downside of the week. I’ve said it before, man, the older we get, the faster time goes! This morning I was reading some prayers, and I realized that together they expressed my feelings for today. The week is nearing its end, and my hope is that Father helps me to just be…

Do It Anyway

When our kids were growing up, there were times they’d come home complaining about a teacher or another student. They just didn’t “mesh” with the other person. I remember we’d tell them that there would be many times in life when they would encounter people they didn’t necessarily care for, but they’d have to interact…

It’s Your Right

If you’re like me, you’ve had your fill of election primary season texts, robo calls, postcards, and commercials. It’s stunning to me that the amount of money is being spent not to talk about the issues, but rather to simply trash whatever opponent(s) you have. There are so many accusations flying around; you simply don’t…
