They Are the Future

I think for as long as we can probably all remember, at one time or another we’ve looked at our youth and said, “They are our future”. Admittedly that comment is not always said positively. We talk about millennials and how they are tied to electronic devices, would rather text than have a conversation, they…

The History

We’re working on a project at the office, well I should say there are several parishioners who are working on the project, I’m just making sure they have what they need. In the summer months, things are quieter in SW Florida, (insert sigh of relief here), so it’s a great time to work on projects…

Derby Day

I’m pretty sure that I shared this last year on this fun day, but hey it’s ok to share it again I think. My mom loved to watch the Derby. I think she would have loved to attend it and she would have been beautiful in one of those elegant hats and spring dresses. Oh…

Sit with Me

Each day I make time when I wake up and right before I go to bed to have a chat with Father. I thank him for the gifts of the day, ask him for guidance as I begin the day, and lift some prayers for others who are in need. It really is a regrounding…

Stop and Be a Photographer

I continue to be blessed with messages or comments from friends about this little blog. People look forward to reading it each morning, and many have commented on what an inspiration it is. Well, we can all thank Father for that as He helps the words flow into this little space each day. I like…

Begin with Him

Ahh, Monday again. Does anyone else think that time on the weekends goes by ten times faster than it does during the week? It’s ok, yes, it’s Monday but hey, we got this. I was reading some uplifting prayers for Monday this morning. I came across one that spoke to me, and thought I’d share…

Weekend Wanderings

If you’ve been reading this little blog for very long you know that Saturday is my favorite day of the week. Well, ya I know, it’s a favorite day of the week for most people, for many obvious reasons. It’s typically a slower day for me and a day to get out and enjoy the…

Every Day is a New Day

I’m wrapping up what has been a wonderful few days with the seniors golf group I work with. At dinner last night, it was fun to watch as people continued to be curious and learn more about each other. They learned about careers, families, and hobbies (other than golf, of course), and found connections to…

Cherish the Relationships

I’m spending a few days in the northern part of the state, horse country actually, in Ocala. I’ve mentioned before in this little blog that I’m the executive director of a golf group of 65 and older players. The group is actually celebrating their 60th year as a club. They get together twice a year…

When God Has Other Plans

Last week, a friend of mine got terrible news about her mother-in-law. She had a stroke and the outlook was not good. We all watched for updates as she was in ICU and unresponsive. The news the doctors gave was she probably would not recover. If you’ve ever lost a loved one, you dread those words, the admission that the doctors…
