He Brings Me Here

I’ve said it many times before in writing this little blog, I’m truly blessed to have so many reach out to me to say thank you. I get text messages and emails from people just saying thank you for the words or the message of a particular little blog post. I never know when my…

His Presence

As you all know, I have a pretty solid routine of sitting with Father each morning and evening. I sit out on our lanai regardless of the temperature and humidity and just enjoy being there with Him. Early in the morning, the birds are just starting to stir and I feel His presence through them.…

Some Gave All

Today we remember those who have dedicated their lives to protecting this nation and the freedoms we all enjoy. In the beginning, many had no choice, however, most did it willingly, and some paid the ultimate price in doing so. I offer this prayer that we lifted yesterday at church to all those who have…

Mopping…ugh – Or was It?

I’m guessing I’m not unlike many people in that housework is one of my least favorite things to do. Now granted, it’s just my husband and I, so admittedly our house is pretty tidy most of the time.

Last year was our first in making the shortcakes by hand and serving this classic treat during our coffee hours following each service. It was a hit and we’re back…

Midweek Ho-Hums

Fun title for this little blog this morning don’t ya think? Isn’t it true though, we get to the middle of the week and if you’re like me, it’s easy for fatigue to set in. I’m dragging a bit this morning and there are still several days left in this work week. I have to…

A Day in the Glades

My husband and I have been trying to spend a little more time discovering the scenic spots around us. Yesterday we took a road trip to the Everglades. Just a little over an hour away is a bounty of beauty found in several Florida National Parks. We took the 27-mile ride on Loop Road in…

Mom

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the moms out there! There is a song by Jim Brickman that pretty much says it all when it comes to being a mom. As mothers, I think we want to know that our children are safe and loved and that they grow up being the best they can…
