The Day that Followed

Today we remember 2977 of our fellow citizens who perished on this day 25 years ago. It’s hard to believe it’s been that long. If you are like me, you remember exactly where you were on 9/11/01. I remember the day like it was yesterday. The images of that day, though hardly ever shown, are…

Live Today

This morning I debated whether to write this little blog, well, whether to share this particular message, I mean. It’s a message that isn’t easy, but yet it is what our lives are about. A friend passed away last evening. He has not been well for quite some time. You could say, I guess, that…

A Frequent Visitor

This week, a parishioner has come into the office several times. He doesn’t really have anything in particular that he wants. One day he asked me if I could recommend a place where he could get business cards printed. The next day, we talked about our services and how beautiful they are. He shared about…

The Undone

You all know that each morning and evening I spend time on our lanai with Father. My time with Him in the morning is my favorite because it’s much quieter, and I feel more connected. During my prayer time with Him, I have several petitions that I say each time. I pray for my family,…

A Little Thought or Was It?

My daughter called me yesterday afternoon to chat. She’d had a rough day at work and just needed to let it out. Actually, I’d had a pretty weird day as well, so it was nice to talk. I tried to lend support where I could, and she did the same. By the end of the…

Saturday Peace

This morning I enjoyed a very peaceful time with Father on my lanai. I’ve shared here many times that Saturday mornings are different for me. A little later rise time and the quiet of the lanai are wonderful. The usual morning traffic that I can hear in the distance during the week is not there…

The Family Within

This morning, I find myself sitting here at this little blog, just giving thanks. Well, that’s a pretty wide-open statement, isn’t it? There are many, many things in this world to give thanks for, I know. What’s so different about this today? Last night we had our final Summer Soiree. I’ve mentioned them before. During…

Humbleness and Humility

This morning, right on schedule, I received my daily scripture reading and reflection from my Priest friend. I’ve mentioned him before here in this little blog. Like this little blog, there are days when his text just hits home. I find myself saying, “I needed this today”, after reading it. Today was one of those…

The 39th

Today is a special day. My husband and I celebrate our 39th anniversary. I’m typing this from one of my favorite places, sitting by the sea. We got up early to watch the sun rise over the Atlantic with a cup of coffee. I have to say, I’ve never seen the sea so calm. As…

Knowing What We Need

Wow, I slept in a little later than usual this morning; I mean, even for a Saturday. I guess sometimes your body knows what you need, and you just have to listen. As I thought about that this morning, something else came to mind. I’m guessing you know what I’m going to say. Sometimes Father…
