A Weekend of Support

Today is a busy day and one that provides so many opportunities to help others. Our church is holding one of its big community sales. Our thrift store, just recently restored from hurricane Milton, has been feverishly collecting “gently used” items from parishioners and other donors over the past weeks. Baby cribs to jewelry, housewares…

Be Silent

A friend of mine posted something on social media yesterday that caught my attention. I have to admit, I don’t go there much. I post this little blog each morning, wish friends happy birthdays, and pop in later in the evening, usually looking for sunset pictures 🙂 . However, yesterday, her post made me stop…

Monday Wishes

Here we go, the start of a new week. I gave thanks this morning as I talked with Father. Of course, I give thanks every day, but I usually start my Mondays by giving thanks for a new week. It’s a chance to grow closer to Him through whatever may come. Mondays get a bad…

When Music Comes to Life

Last night, my husband and I had a date night. We went to see one of my favorite groups, Mercy Me, in concert. We’ve seen them before, many years ago, and I was just as excited to see them this time. We were supposed to see them last October, but Hurricane Milton forced them to…

Picture of Hope

Last night our oldest daughter sent us a text message. There was a picture of a young couple, looking as if they were posing for their engagement pictures. You could tell it was an older picture. As I looked at it trying to determine if I knew the couple, (which I didn’t), she went on…

Unknown Laughter

Yesterday during our weekly team meeting we had a little fun with our Rector. Yes, it was April Fool’s Day, and though I’m usually not a fan of jokes commemorating this day, one of my team members had put some thought into one that was harmless. For the approximately two minutes it took for the…

Weekend of Messages

I took some time off over the weekend from this little blog. I needed to let my mind rest a bit, and we had a busy few days at church. I mentioned on Friday that our Bishop was in town for his annual visit, so many events scheduled, including confirming many parishioners 🙂 . He…

He Brings Us Back

Yesterday morning I was bustling around trying to get out the door for my workout and then on to an appointment from there. Leaving the gym to work or other appointments has its challenges. I have to pack a bag to shower there, which means packing toiletries, towel, yada, yada, and invariably I forget something.…

A New Day

Funny about the Lord’s creation. “There was evening, and there was morning”. There is always a new day. There is an opportunity to do things differently. There is new hope as the sun rises, and things often look brighter as that sun rises. I’ve watched some unfortunate things play out over the past few days…

Saturday Afternoon

Yesterday in this little blog I talked about our lives belonging to Father, that this life is about Him not about me. This life is a gift and all the things we share while here, also…gifts from God. Those include family and friends. At the end of yesterday’s little blog, I encouraged everyone to get…
