Serenity

Just the mention of the word brings a calmness when said. The official definition of the word serenity is; “the state of being calm, peaceful and untroubled”. Well now, don’t we all want that at any given time in our life, or any given time of the day for that matter. This morning as I…

I Want To Be Here

There are several ways to look at the title of this little blog this morning. If you’re like me you’ve probably thought of your favorite happy place, like the beach, or maybe the mountains, and thought to yourself, “I just want to be here all the time”. When you spend time with your family, catch…

Sunday Thoughts

Yesterday my husband and I attended the funeral of a parishioner who had become a friend over the past few years. Admittedly I’m closer to his daughter as I see her more frequently. George was 97 and lived such a wonderful life of service and faith. Not long after meeting him years ago, we learned…

The Power of Connection

We had a little fun yesterday afternoon, well last evening I should say. My granddaughter called us to tell us about her week. She works part-time at the local YMCA as an after-school counselor. Kids from various schools around the area attend the after-school program. For Halloween, the Y has a contest where the youth…

Bringing Peace

I’m not sure if you experience this, but sometimes I find myself getting into a rut when I talk with Father. What I mean is, I find that when I’m lifting prayers, I’m just repeating the same thing each day, if that makes sense. This morning I stopped myself to just converse with Him. Like…

Deploying Prayers

As I typed the title for today’s little blog, a vision popped into my head. I could see angels ready for battle against evil. Wow, makes you wonder what I’m going to share in this little blog this morning hmmm. It’s really not that earth-shattering. Today I just come to you to ask for prayers. You…

Trust Him

Yesterday I spent many hours cleaning our lanai. Milton made a major mess of things and with everything else going on at the church, yesterday was the first chance I had to clean it. It was one of those chores that I thought would go pretty quickly, but once I started I found myself cleaning…

Nuisance – It’s Ok

Friends, sometimes you can’t make things up. Sometimes you simply have to laugh at what happens in life. This morning, well that would be one of those times. I had hoped to take today off, and try and get things done around our house that have been lacking for obvious reasons over the past few…

The American Spirit

Where do I even begin when talking about the spirit of this great nation over the past month? I just continue to be in awe of how Americans are coming together to take care of their fellow Americans. I continue to be amazed by how Father is working to connect His children to make things…
