Father Weeps
I know how I feel as a parent and grandparent when my grown children and grandchildren have done things that go against what they know is right. I know how I feel when they make mistakes that could have been prevented. I feel sad, I feel hurt, and I wonder what I could have done…

I Choose You
I think I’ve mentioned here before that a friend of mine sends me an inspirational text each morning. He has been conducting a comprehensive study of the Anglican Catechism over the past few months. He’s broken it down piece by piece, in just short snippets. It really is perfect. Yesterday’s snippet was about prayer. I…

Trust in Prayer
Yesterday, I came here to this little blog to ask for prayer. You always come through when I need you. Over the years, we’ve prayed for babies, we’ve prayed for those about to go home to the Lord, we’ve prayed for victims of natural disasters, and we continue to pray for the return of sweet…

Father and Friendships
I’m spending this week with some old friends. We’re celebrating the 20th anniversary of the association I was a part of in many ways for more than 15 years. I’m looking forward to seeing old friends, hugging many necks, and celebrating a community that has grown so much over the years. As I look at…

For the Doers
Today is Labor Day. I don’t want to take up this little blog with the full history of Labor Day, but I did want to share this interesting summation of this last holiday of the summer, that I came across from Country Living magazine. “Simply put, Labor Day celebrates Americans who labor. It is a…

The Sunsets

He Gives
I was reading a post from a friend on social media yesterday. She’s been through a difficult few months, yet through it all, her faith has kept her strong. I talked to her a few weeks ago, and she mentioned that she wasn’t sure why the Lord felt she was so strong, but she was…

Don’t Underestimate
I was having a conversation with a friend yesterday. We were discussing our busy schedules, juggling the various things in our day. We were discussing the general craziness out there these days, I swear there is a full moon like 6 out of the 7 days a week 🙂 . What was interesting was we…

The Old Days
Yesterday, after church, we joined our friends at breakfast (as has become the routine). We went to one of our four places of choice. When we were seated and had our coffee, we started looking at the menu. We all noticed that it was different. It was considerably smaller; they had taken many things off…

My Heart, Your Heart
A few mornings ago, I was sitting on the lanai having my regular a.m. check-in with Father. I was asking for prayers for my “regulars,” I call them. Of course, family and friends, but also those who have specific needs, such as the return of sweet Emily Rea. As I talked with Him and prayed,…
