Going Back

I haven’t had the chance to capture a nice sunrise or sunset recently. It’s been cold and windy most nights when we’ve left the office, and stepping out on the beach only increases the cold and wind. Ya, I know, I’ve gotten pretty whimpy lately. So, I’ve been going back through my hundreds of sunrise…

Tuesday Pick Me Up

I don’t know about you, but sometimes for me Tuesday is a more difficult day of the week to get going than Monday. Maybe it’s because over the years of working, we expect Mondays to be a challenge. I mean, we’re coming off a weekend and all. Tuesday, on the other hand, well, it’s that…

Comfortable

Take a moment to think about the relationships in your life. The relationship you have with your spouse, family, and close friends. Are you comfortable in those relationships? I’ve mentioned here before that we go to breakfast on Sunday mornings following church, with some good friends of ours. It’s kind of a joke now about…

Always With Me

Over the last few weeks, I’ve noticed something during the night. I think I’ve mentioned before that I’m a pretty light sleeper, although that has improved, thank goodness. Anyway, recently, when I wake up in the evening, maybe a bathroom trip, for instance, I find I have a song playing in my head. It’s not…

Raising

Last night we had our annual meeting at church. It’s a time when we come together to review the past year, discuss, and plan for the year ahead. This year will be different for our church. You see, we are embarking on a large project. A project that carries with it much emotion. Over the…

Orderly

There is something to be said for having things neat and orderly in our lives. I guess the new year brings the opportunity to do things a little differently. This morning, as I’m getting ready to head out for some errands, I took a moment to tidy up my desk. I put away things that…

Trust Him to Guide

Do you believe that Father brings people into our lives for a reason? I certainly do. I don’t believe there are coincidences; I believe that the Lord has a plan for all of us and uses all things for good. I know there are times when we face challenges and definitely don’t feel like anything…

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,…

Give Up Giving Up

Many years ago, when we still lived up north, the Priest at our church had an answer to “Father, what are you giving up for Lent?”. He would always say, “I’m giving up giving up”. I used to think that was his polite way of saying that he wasn’t giving up anything for Lent. Well,…

One of Ten

I’ve shared here before that I receive a daily devotional text from a friend of mine who is a priest. He is taking us through the Ten Commandments right now, and I’ve been learning a great deal from his messages. Yes, I know these ten simple rules that Father asked us to follow. However, digging…
