Love Packed In

If you’ve been reading this blog for a while, you know that my husband and I work in our church office. It’s a blast from the past because we actually met many years ago, when, wait for itβ¦we worked together π . Anyway, our church is in what they call Old Naples. It’s a very…

A Wee Prayer

One of the most wonderful outcomes of this little blog, Father’s little blog, is the incredible support that comes from all of you when I come here and ask for prayer. I know without a doubt that those prayers make such a difference. You’ve all heard me say so many times before, I believe, when…

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 π . So, how did I get to this topic today? Well, here in SW Florida, the “season” is picking up. The part-time residents who…

This morning, as I spent my usual quiet time with Father, I made a point to ask Him to truly guide my day. Yes, this is in my daily prayers, but this morning was a little different. You know, sometimes you can get into a pattern when you pray, to the point where it’s almost…

It’s On Me

Yesterday morning, I went to work early. I have a large project I’m working on, and I can accomplish a great deal before the office fills with the rest of the team and the day-to-day activities. I stopped by the local bagel shop on my way, and they had literally just opened, well, that’s what…

Prepared

Yesterday afternoon, I did the usual grocery store run. When I got home, I did something I haven’t in a while. I took the time to prep for the week. Made up a batch of the family salad dressing, restocked our homemade pickled jalapenos, and prepped for dinner all in one fell swoop. Following dinner,…

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…

A Hero

Over the past three years, since I started writing this little blog, Father’s little blog, I dubbed it this week, I’ve shared a story about a friend of mine, Tommy Gilbert. I’ve shared the story on this day each year. I share it on this particular day because it was on this day, 19 years…
