Midweek Boost

Many years ago, I got into a habit of posting a camel picture on social media on Wednesdays, reminding everyone that it was humpday and to make it a great one. It really did become “a thing”, even to the point that people would send camel memorabilia to me. I have a collection of stuffed…

No Plan

Those of you who know me personally know that I’m a planner. I’m a list maker, and I like it when things are in order 🙂 . I guess it’s my ops brain. Yesterday, I took the day off because it was supposed to be one of only two days in like the last three…

Keeping Him Close

Over the past few days, I’ve felt a little “off”. I wasn’t quite sure what was going on. I just felt like I was in a funk, nothing seemed right and I was just going through the motions. Yesterday afternoon was no different. I made my way to the pool after church, just in time…

Walk With Me

This morning I was having my quiet time with Father. It was quieter than usual on the lanai, given that it’s a weekday. As I sat and prayed, I asked Him to help me with the message I could share here this morning. Almost instantly, I heard, “Walk with me”. “Thank you, Lord, got it”,…

The Brighter Path

Lately we’ve had some pretty amazing sunrises and sunsets here in SW Florida. The cloud shapes and colors have filled the skies with pinks and golds; it really has been amazing. Yesterday morning, as I pulled out of the driveway, I could see the sky was again painted with pink. I turned onto the main…

It’s All In A Verse

There are some pretty amazing verses in the Bible. Well, I guess that might be the understatement of the century 🙂 . This morning I read the daily text I receive from my friend, who is a priest. His daily scripture passages and reflections help start my day with a simple study of God’s word.…

Pastimes

Back in the day, I loved to sew. I made my kids’ dresses when they were little. Their Christening gowns, Christmas and Easter dresses, even the wedding dress for our oldest. I made various items for our home: curtains and table runners, pillows, and yes, the dog bed for our granddog. I can’t remember the…

Noodling and Daybreak

Funny title for today’s little blog, don’t ya think? Yesterday, my day started off with a shelf in our laundry room trying to jump onto my head. I went in to grab some Ziplocs from the storage basket, and literally the shelf the basket was sitting on came out of the wall into my arms.…

A Little Book Comforting Prayer

I’ve mentioned here in this little blog before that my husband gave me a little book called “The Practice of Religion”. Inside the cover, it reads, “A short manual of instructions and devotions”. It is indeed a book of instructions about our services, special occasions, and situations. If you were new to our denomination, this…

Talents for Good

We’re all good at something. I have to admit I’ve never understood the term “hidden talent”. We either have talents or not; I don’t know how they can be hidden. Ok that was a lot of garbly gook in those sentences, wasn’t it? I do think it’s interesting how people have talents. Take my husband,…
