The Unexpected

Well, we never encounter it, the unexpected, I mean. Silly question, I know. It happens every day, and to some of us, probably multiple times a day. The unexpected happens, and we’re challenged (sometimes more intensely than others) to deal with what has happened. Here’s a good example: Pensacola, Florida, saw over 6″ of snowfall…

It’s All In How You Start

The beginning of a new week. Yes, I think Sunday’s begin a new week. Think about it, if we start the week on Sunday, then that dreaded Monday doesn’t seem so bad does it? It’s all in how you choose to start the week that makes the difference. What better way to start the week…

Through the Years

Wasn’t that the title of a song many years ago? Yeah, I think it was. I can even hear Kenny Rogers singing it 🙂 . Well, it wasn’t the handsome country singer who inspired the title of this little blog; it was the realization of how strong true friendship is. A few years ago, I…

You Remember

Children are the greatest and most precious gift that Father gives to us. They are to be cherished, loved, and protected above all else. If you are a parent, especially a mom like me, you remember pretty much every detail of when you gave birth to your children. It’s funny, I can’t remember some things…

Trust and Simplicity

I’ve shared with you all that there are days when I sit down at this little blog and I’m not quite sure what to share or write. I find that if I’m patient and truly turn it over to Father, then something will settle in. This morning was one of those times when I wasn’t…

Tulips in Winter

Now there’s an interesting title for this little blog. Yesterday while grocery shopping I stopped in the floral section. It’s right inside the front door and it’s fun to look for things that might brighten up the home, especially in winter. I love to have fresh flowers around the house, it just makes things “homier”.…

Prayer Works

You know it really does. Prayer works. I think there are times when we feel our prayers are not being answered. We don’t see an instant response from Father so we assume He’s not listening or He’s choosing not to answer our prayer. Trust me, I’ve been there. What I’ve learned over time though, especially…

When the Heart Is Heavy

Even though we have a relationship with Christ, share everything with Him, and give ourselves fully to Him, that doesn’t mean there won’t be times when we are sad. We are human, and Father doesn’t expect us not to have emotions. Today friends, my heart is heavy. I have a friend, (I won’t share their…

Tough Love

We’re beginning the first full week of the new year. So I guess you could say we are officially in 2025. Last week in this little blog I talked about New Year resolutions versus commitments. I mentioned that I wasn’t making any resolutions, but instead, I’m making commitments as they are more binding in my…

A Classic for a Sunday

If you’ve read this little blog for very long you know that occasionally I like to toss in a tune here and there. It’s funny because I can listen to what some would call “praise music”, or the classic hymns from beautiful choirs, or country, or a little old time rock and roll, ya, I…
