Long Happy Day
Happy Father’s Day to all the dads, stepfathers, father figures, and grandfathers out there. I’m thinking about my dad today. I can’t believe he’s been gone for almost 28 years. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about him, or have a memory pop into my head. Thank you, Lord, for the gift…

Back to Simple
Last night we had dinner with a few friends, well, like 70 of ’em. During the summer (the “off-season), here in SW Florida, our church works with local restaurants to host dinners. I’ve mentioned them here before. It’s a great way to support the local businesses, especially during slower times, and our parishioners who live…

Where Did It Go
I ask myself this question almost every day. Where did the time go? As I get older, I’m asking myself this question in terms of years, because those seem to be flying by too 🙂 . Today, I’m asking myself where the last 21 years went. Our grandson, “little” Austin, has a big birthday today.…

A Reminder to Myself
I have a pretty full day ahead of me, but I’m going to make a point of carving out time for a walk on the beach. Headed for a little pampering this morning, clean up my shaggy head of hair, then a funeral this afternoon. In between those things, I need some saltwater sand in…

God’s Beauty
Yesterday I headed out early to spend some time on the water. I have to admit the weather was beautiful. The Florida humidity took a bit of a break, the sky had the most amazing billowy clouds, yes, it was just a beautiful day. I puttered along, casting my fishing line here and there back…

A Post, A Message, A Voice

God’s Work
Yesterday I spent time out on the water. As I mentioned in the little blog yesterday morning, the weather forecast wasn’t the greatest, but that was ok. For once, they were pretty accurate; it drizzled most of the day. You know what, that was ok, it was so peaceful, I didn’t see anyone for hours,…

Overcast
I’m headed out this morning to one of my happy places, the water. Fishing pole in hand, I’m hoping to get back into the groove of doing this like I used to. Most weekends, you could find me fishing someplace, and now that I can be on the water, well, I’ve got no excuses. I’ve…

Sunrise
If you’ve been reading this blog for very long, you know that it began with a simple vision of sharing a bible verse and a picture of a sunrise or sunset. Well, I still do that in every blog, but of course, it has grown into something more than I ever dreamed. A community of…

Being Content
We were fortunate to spend the long weekend with family. We gathered to celebrate the anniversary and dual birthdays of our nephew and his wife. Family from multiple states came together to celebrate and catch up on life happenings. It was a joyous time, and we all commented as we said our goodbyes, how great…
