Visiting Dad
We’re wrapping up the visit with my stepmom today, heading to Tampa to visit my dad. He is buried in the Florida National Cemetery there. It’s been a while since we have been there, last December for the Wreath’s Across America Event. My dad isn’t really there, just his human shell, I know that he…

Sweet Emily Rea
If you’ve been following this little blog for the past year you know that I’ve often asked for prayers for sweet Emily Rea. Emily is the niece of a dear friend of mine and she went missing on July 16th, 2024. She went to paddleboat at a Montana reservoir where she frequently did so. You…

Fit Them In
I’m spending the next few days with family in town. My stepmom is here for a visit. She’s making her way around the country to see family and friends on kind of a whirlwind tour so to speak. We haven’t seen each other in over a year, in person at least so this visit is…

But I Wanted
Recently I’ve been having conversations with friends about various events in their lives. One was in the middle of a deal to open her own business. Another was planning a lengthy trip.

Weekend of Thanks
This Memorial Day weekend is about remembering. It’s about honoring. It’s about saying thanks to those who gave everything for total strangers. Men and women gave their lives to protect the freedoms we all enjoy. This morning I was reading in our Book of Common Prayer and was drawn to this prayer of thanksgiving. Though…

A Psalm for Mom
A friend of mine is in need of prayer. She is in the process of helping her sweet mom make her way home with Jesus. No matter how old we are, we are never ready to lose our mothers. Even though it is not goodbye forever, it is still so painful and there is a…

Little Blog Memory Lane
If you’ve been reading this little blog for very long, you know that I began writing it in place of the book I was going to write, (and still plan to write one day). Five years ago, (yes the dreaded 2020), I began posting bible verses on social media, just once a day at first.…

If You Choose
I’ve been spending time with friends over the past few days. Last night, we wrapped up our time together with dinner and a sunset cruise. Our time together has been priceless, with memories shared and memories made. After dinner, we boarded the boat for the cruise and headed to the top deck. As we left…
