Clinging

I mentioned yesterday that I have a friend, a priest, who sends me a daily devotional text. After reading the little blog yesterday morning, he sent me an additional text. If you recall, in this little blog I was sharing about how the happenings in this world lately have me feeling tired and just a…

Keep Digging

This morning, I was reading a devotional that a friend sends me each day. It is focusing on the Lord’s Prayer and discusses the meaning of each section. We’re at the part of “Lead us not into temptation”. One of the pieces of scripture focused on Job. We all know how faithful Job was to…

Not Mine

I had an interesting slip of words this morning. Well, I don’t know whether it was a slip of words or if it was a correction. Let me explain. You have all heard me refer to this little blog, or the little blog. I really haven’t used the phrase my little blog. It’s funny because…

Prayer, Hope, Faith

Prayer can be a difficult thing sometimes. Wow, that’s a great way to start this little blog for the week ahead. Well, you all know me, I sometimes just blurt out what I’m thinking here. As I was talking with Father this morning, I added one of my usual petitions to my morning prayers (it’s…

The Things That Come Between

Have you noticed how easy it is to let “the things” come between you and Father? What do I mean by “the things”? Well, anything, all of it. The busy schedule, the work to-dos, the home life to-dos, this appointment, that ballgame, this meeting, you get the idea. Our everyday life presents “things” that get…

Today Is A Gift

Yes, yes it is. Of course, every day is a gift; we all know that. You all know that I love Saturday. It’s the one morning in the week when I catch a little more z’s and don’t have to rush out the door to work. We have a few things on our to-do list…

What If

About a month ago, in this little blog, I shared a conversation I had with my husband. He was telling me about how he prays for satan. Yes, you heard that right. It is such an interesting perspective, and over the past month, since writing that little blog, I’ve been thinking a lot about the…

Make the Date

A few nights ago, as my husband and I were making dinner, we chatted about how it was getting dark earlier 😦 . Ugh, I don’t like this time of year, not just because it gets dark early, but also because it’s harder to see the sunset from our windows now. At any rate, we…

Back to Personal

I’m fortunate to be of an age where many of my friends still write, yes handwrite, thank you notes. We all still send real birthday cards, not e-cards. We send hand-addressed and signed Christmas cards. Yes, I love that so many still hold to this practice. It’s personal, and it shows that you took the…

Wrote It Yesterday?

You all know that I speak with Father every morning, and part of our conversation is to discuss what message I can share here on this little blog. I usually ask if there is something in particular He wants me to share. Some mornings that message comes to me clearly, other mornings not so much.…
