Strawberries and Trust
This weekend is our second annual strawberry shortcake event at church to celebrate Pentecost, (the celebration of when the Holy Spirit descends upon the Apostles). Last year was our first in making the shortcakes by hand and serving this classic treat during our coffee hours following each service. It was a hit and we’re back…

Midweek Ho-Hums
Fun title for this little blog this morning don’t ya think? Isn’t it true though, we get to the middle of the week and if you’re like me, it’s easy for fatigue to set in. I’m dragging a bit this morning and there are still several days left in this work week. I have to…

The Birds of Hope
If you follow this little blog, you know that each morning and evening, I spend some quality time with Father on my lanai, (patio). The mornings are different because it’s usually very quiet, the fountain in our lake is off, there are not many lights on in the neighborhood, and maybe an occasional cricket chirping…

A Day in the Glades
My husband and I have been trying to spend a little more time discovering the scenic spots around us. Yesterday we took a road trip to the Everglades. Just a little over an hour away is a bounty of beauty found in several Florida National Parks. We took the 27-mile ride on Loop Road in…

Mom
Happy Mother’s Day to all of the moms out there! There is a song by Jim Brickman that pretty much says it all when it comes to being a mom. As mothers, I think we want to know that our children are safe and loved and that they grow up being the best they can…

The Lights
Last night, or should I say early this morning much of our country saw what was perhaps a once-in-a-lifetime sight, the Aurora Borealis, also known as the Northern Lights. Even way down here in SW Florida, there are pictures of the most dazzling pink and purple sky at midnight. In other pictures I’ve seen from…

Break Away
Do you ever find yourself just questioning what to do next? Well, that is a pretty open-ended question I know. I guess there are times when we all wonder if what we are doing at a particular time is what we should be doing. Should I do housework or should I go to the pool?…

See with Your Heart
There are times in our lives when things happen and leaning on faith is truly what will get you through. Maybe that was kind of like a “duh” statement. I pretty much share that message every day here in this little blog. When I think about the time when Jesus was alive, the people who…

They Are the Future
I think for as long as we can probably all remember, at one time or another we’ve looked at our youth and said, “They are our future”. Admittedly that comment is not always said positively. We talk about millennials and how they are tied to electronic devices, would rather text than have a conversation, they…

Derby Day
I’m pretty sure that I shared this last year on this fun day, but hey it’s ok to share it again I think. My mom loved to watch the Derby. I think she would have loved to attend it and she would have been beautiful in one of those elegant hats and spring dresses. Oh…
