It’s OK to Pray

It seems like a silly thing to say, the title of today’s little blog I mean, it’s OK to pray. I do think there are times though when people feel uncomfortable doing so. I’ve shared here before that our family says grace before every meal. Regardless of where we are, at home, in a restaurant,…

A Little of This and That

I’m finding myself running a little behind as I sit down to write this little blog this morning. Time has gotten away from me. The weather outside is cold and rainy and I’ve spent too much time trying to determine where my winterish clothes are 🙂 . So this morning I’m going to fall back…

He’s Never Failed Me Yet

I found this song this morning, why I’ve never heard it before I’m not sure. It’s been around for a long time I believe but for me it was the first time hearing it. I have to tell you, it just hit me this morning. What a great message and a beautiful song, and of…

Prayer Works

You know it really does. Prayer works. I think there are times when we feel our prayers are not being answered. We don’t see an instant response from Father so we assume He’s not listening or He’s choosing not to answer our prayer. Trust me, I’ve been there. What I’ve learned over time though, especially…

When the Heart Is Heavy

Even though we have a relationship with Christ, share everything with Him, and give ourselves fully to Him, that doesn’t mean there won’t be times when we are sad. We are human, and Father doesn’t expect us not to have emotions. Today friends, my heart is heavy. I have a friend, (I won’t share their…

Overwhelmed – It’s Ok

Do you ever have those days when you have so much to do you simply don’t know where to start? I’ve had a few of those lately. I’ve even mentioned in this little blog that just the other day I had to implore Father to help clear my mind before I could even pray. Now…

A Clear Mind

You all know that I sit on my lanai (Florida term for patio) each morning and evening and spend time with Father. We have a small lake behind us with a fountain that runs during waking hours, usually 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m. The fountain helps to lessen the volume of residents who may be…

Thoughts From the Pedicure Chair

It’s the weekend and you all know this little blog usually comes out later in the morning. I tend to sleep in a bit, grab coffee, and enjoy a little longer time with Father before sitting down to share thoughts. Well, this morning I had an early appointment for a little pampering. So, I was…

Reflections on 2024

I guess it’s pretty common to reflect on the year as it comes to a close. Or do we really reflect on what has happened? I think most of the time, we all just look forward to a new year ahead, a new beginning, and a chance for things to be different. Many times we,…

Birthday Prayer “Again”…

I think I’ve shared in this little blog before the story of the birthday prayer. We had a dear friend, one who became a father figure to me, later in my life, after my dad had passed away. John was a father figure to many in our group of friends. He was not only one…
