The Little Messages
If you’ve been reading this little blog for very long, you know that some days the messages are very simple. Hence why the blog is little 🙂 . Today is one of those days. The blog is short, and the message is simple; however, the message is powerful. Today is our youngest daughter’s birthday. So,…

Ramble On
Not long ago, well longer than I thought, I shared my 1000th little blog post. Well, here we are on this Monday morning, and I’m typing number 1201 🙂 . I can’t believe how the time just flies by. You all have made coming here each day so fulfilling. Thank you for your continued comments,…

Sticking To It
Yep, that’s what I’m doing today. One of my first 2026 posts in this little blog was about taking the time to work on the paint-by-number that I purchased at Christmas back in 2020. Yes, five years ago, and I haven’t come close to finishing it. This is the year that I do. I encouraged…

Listen to the Happy
I’ve noticed that as I’ve grown older, and more importantly, as I’ve deepened my relationship with Father, my taste in music has changed. I find myself listening to more Christian music because the message resonates with me more. Don’t get me wrong, I still have the old playlists that I pull out occasionally. I love…

The Eve
Christmas Eve. Just saying the words stirs up emotions, doesn’t it? Go ahead, say it, “Christmas Eve”. The thoughts that come to mind for me range from thinking about the Baby Jesus to the memories of Christmas past with our children. Yes, Christmas Eve, it’s a powerful time, emotionally, I mean. As I look back…

A Child Was Born
This morning, I came across a poem while I was reading some prayers. It’s a beautiful message about that night so long ago when God delivered His son. It’s written by Susan Noyes Anderson, and she wonders, as I know I have, how different characters in the story felt that night so long ago. You’ll…

True Joy
Last night I was reading in my little red book, “The Practice of Religion”, which I’ve shared about before here in this little blog. It’s a wonderful book filled with prayers and small services to get you through all manner of life. I read evening prayer almost every night from it. Last night, though, I…

In the Midst of Advent
This is the third Sunday of Advent. It’s known as Rose Sunday. If you have an Advent wreath, this is the Sunday that we light the pink candle. Rose Sunday is when we take a little break from the somberness of Advent to enjoy the excitement of the coming of the Baby Jesus. I read…

Let Your Light Shine
For me, today is one of the most special days of the year. Today is National Wreaths Across America Day. This organization’s mission is to lay a wreath at the gravesite of every veteran, and they are making progress for sure. The act of taking time to personally lay a wreath at the grave of…

Dual Meaning
One of my favorite Christmas songs is Believe sung by Josh Groban. This is the title song for the movie Polar Express. I’m sure you are all familiar with the plot. A young boy has come to that sad point where he no longer believes in Santa, or at least he’s close to it. The…
