Well, you all know that I tend to sleep in a bit on Saturdays. I guess I did, by an hour this morning 🙂 . We’re up early on my favorite day of the week as we’re headed to a day filled with service and some fun tossed in. As I’ve mentioned here in the…

Take Time to Make Time

A friend reached out a few days ago to say she was in town, well not far from me anyway, and asked if we could have lunch. My schedule that particular day was crazy and I was bummed as I replied that I didn’t think it would work out. A little while later she texted…

Forgiveness Starts in the Mirror

I come to this little blog often sharing words about forgiveness. We all know that Father has asked that we not only love others as He loved us, but He also asks us to forgive others as He forgives us. Let’s face it, we make mistakes, we disappoint, we screw up, simply put, we are human. Do you…

Unbelievable… Believe

It Spreads – Prayer Does

Yesterday as the news broke about the passing of Toby Keith, as we usually do, we began to see posts on social media sending condolences to the family, and lifting of prayers for comfort. What struck me yesterday though, I witnessed much more than those words of comfort. I saw prayers lifted and spreading to others. I’m…

Sunrises and Market”ing”

I woke up early this morning. Big deal you say. Well, if you’ve read this little blog much, you know that I usually like to sleep in a bit on Saturdays. This morning though I’m heading out to our local farmer’s market. We’ve lived here many years and I’ve yet to go to it. Yes, in Florida, especially SW Florida,…

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…
