Advent Boost
With Thanksgiving falling late this year, there really isn’t time to breathe before we move right into Advent. Well, that’s what we did, we moved right into Advent. It’s hard to believe that Christmas is just three weeks away. Today, I’m feeling rushed, still catching up from being out of the office last week, still…

You Make a Difference
Yes, you do. We all make a difference in this world. Gosh, I guess I can end this little blog with a prayer and call it done for the day 🙂 . So, how did I get to this topic today? Well, here in SW Florida, the “season” is picking up. The part-time residents who…

Prayers for Paradise
Living here in SW Florida, we’ve had our share of hurricanes over the past few years. So far it appears we will get through this season without a major event here in our little paradise. Unfortunately, it looks like another paradise island, Jamaica is going to get the brunt of Hurricane Melissa. This storm is…

Through the Storm
I’ve been following the nasty storms that have made their way through the Midwest and Southeast these past few days. Many friends were awakened by tornado sirens in the wee hours of Saturday morning, taking shelter in basements and interior rooms of their homes. Thankfully family and friends are safe.

Share Me
This morning I noticed something that I don’t normally see and I’m not sure why. I looked up from the lanai and noticed an incredible amount of stars. They were twinkling off in the distance and the more I looked the brighter they seemed to get. I couldn’t help but think of the verses from…

Turn Into It
I got up in the middle of the night last night, too much water drank before I went to bed, you get the idea, 🙂 . Anyway, yes I padded off to the bathroom, and just as I stepped onto our tile floor from the carpet a major cramp grabbed hold of my foot. You…

Taking Care of Things
This past week has been a week of just that, taking care of things. You know those tasks or chores that you kind of put off and don’t want to deal with? We’ve been slowly getting our Sunday school rooms back in order following Hurricane Milton. It’s been a longer process because we’ve decided not…

The Transformation
We are fortunate at our church to work with a local florist. He has been with us forever and supplies the flowers for the altar each Sunday. He also provides the decorations for the Christmas and Easter celebrations. Yesterday was the day that we transformed the church from Advent Season to Christmas and it was…
