Skills and Talents

I’ve shared in this little blog that we are having some remodeling done in our condo. As I’ve mentioned we chose to rent a place while the work is being done, and our last few trips through our place tell us, ya we made the right decision 🙂 . Yesterday, after work, we stopped by…

Walking His Walk

Lent begins today with Ash Wednesday. Over the years, I’ve participated by giving up various things, such as chocolate, alcohol, meat, etc. I admit that giving up some of my loves—or should I say vices—made me stop and think about what Jesus went through during those 40 days in the desert. I gave up giving…

Standing Strong

I’m not sure about you, but I find that the closer I get in my relationship with Father, the more satan tries to destroy it. His ultimate goal, after all, is to separate the Lord from His children. Knowing that Father does not demand that we follow Him, giving us the choice to choose the…

Odd, Sad, Human

Yesterday was an odd day. I’m sure you’ve had them too, days when you just feel out of sorts and you can’t put your finger on it. Admittedly, it started out on a bad note the minute I got to work and unfortunately I guess it just set the stage for me to be grumpy.…

Equipped

One of the benefits of this fitness journey that I began at the start of the year is that I notice I’m sleeping better. I’ve always been a light sleeper. It drives my husband crazy. He’ll come just to give me a kiss goodnight, thinking I’m asleep, only to startle me out of my light…

Mr. Rogers?

Last night our community had its monthly happy hour. Couples sign up monthly to host, (meaning they open our little clubhouse, set out plates, napkins, ice, etc., nothing major). Neighbors bring a nosh or dessert to share along with their beverage of choice. It’s a great time to catch up with everyone, especially in the…

Humbleness

I’ve found myself praying for this lately, the ability to be humble and to listen to how Father would like me to move through different situations. I guess I’ve grown in my relationship with Him because I sense my conversations with Him have changed. I find myself asking for Father to help me to have…

Separation

The word means “the act or process of separating: the state of being separated.” At least that’s how good ole Merriam-Webster lists the meaning. Sorry, I’ll keep going there for my definitions and not the latest ai tool 🙂 . Anyway, separation basically means to be apart from something or someone. This morning as I…

The Difference a Store Makes

Last week, I shared an experience my husband and I had at the grocery store in this little blog. It was about the service at the check-out line and the checker’s visible unhappiness. The title of that little blog was “It Made Me Sad.” It did make me sad, seeing how unhappy the young man…

Change Is Good

I’ve heard this tons of times, change is a good thing. I guess I believe that for the most part. I mean if we stayed stagnant and didn’t change, well we’d be pretty dull people 🙂 . When I think about change I understand that there may be times when it’s uncomfortable leaving us uncertain…
