The Tea Ring

I started a new tradition this year, well let’s say I’m trying to start a new tradition this year. Actually, you could say I’m sort of picking up a past tradition and tweaking it. Years ago, when our kids were younger, we had a tradition of enjoying a Swedish Tea Ring on Christmas morning. A…

Get Through it Together

This morning I just want to share a song, I’ve shared before. It’s one of strength and a reminder to just keep putting one foot in front of the other. It’s a reminder that we are stronger than we think sometimes. And, it’s a reminder that together, with Father, we can get through just about…

Message to Father

Well, we’re prepping again for another storm here in Florida. This one is different, and actually quite rare in that it’s not coming up through the Yucatan as they normally do. This storm is coming from the Pacific and headed straight at the state. There is simply no question of whether it will “turn” and…

Dawn of a New Day

It is indeed the dawn of a new day. Yesterday was another day filled with emotion as we come together to help those in need in the states affected by Helene. What was so wonderful though, the connections that have been made to share with others. This person has that friend, who knows someone there,…

Be Prepared – Live Each Day

This morning, I was looking back on some of my previous little blogs. We’re coming up on the second anniversary of Hurricane Ian, and I read the post that I wrote just a few days before that historic storm. Two years later, some people are still rebuilding and not back in their original homes. I…

The community has rallied in an incredible way. Distributing…

Simple Notes

My granddaughter has always been a note-leaver. What does that mean you ask? Well, whenever she would come to our house my husband and I would find these little notes that she would leave for us. Usually, we’d find them on the desks in our offices. Just short little notes that were so special. When…

Do You Hear It?

So, you all know that I spend a little time each morning and evening on my lanai, (Florida’s term for patio), talking with Father. I love beginning and ending my day this way, the time is special to me of course. More importantly, these are the times when I hear Father when I feel Him…

Finding God’s Promise

When I started this little blog a few years ago I came up with the name Inspirasuns. The tagline is “Finding God’s Promise through sunrises & sunsets”. I’ve been taking pictures of sunrises and sunsets forever, and I’m fortunate to have tons of friends who send them to me now. I’ve even started sharing many…

Changing the Sheets

One of my least favorite chores at home is to change the sheets on the bed. I don’t have a good reason really, I mean it’s not difficult. I just dread pulling off our heavy comforter, then the back and forth from one side to the other, making sure I don’t have more blanket than…
