He Deserves

This morning, as I spent my usual quiet time with Father, I made a point to ask Him to truly guide my day. Yes, this is in my daily prayers, but this morning was a little different. You know, sometimes you can get into a pattern when you pray, to the point where it’s almost…

The Saints

Today is All Saints Day. A day to remember not only our loved ones who have joined the company of the Saints of Heaven, but it’s a day for us to look at our lives. How are we living? Are we living as the Saints did? My friend, who sends a devotional text to me…

Not a Fan

Well, friends, I had written this little blog this morning and then completely erased it, deciding on a different direction. I’m leaving my original title, though. You see, I had written about not being a fan of Halloween. I realized by the time it was finished, ya, it was a downer. Let’s just say, again,…

It’s On Me

Yesterday morning, I went to work early. I have a large project I’m working on, and I can accomplish a great deal before the office fills with the rest of the team and the day-to-day activities. I stopped by the local bagel shop on my way, and they had literally just opened, well, that’s what…

Powerless…No

Maybe it’s because the last few years here in FL, we’ve had to deal with major storms. I suppose that’s the reason I, like many others, am following Hurricane Melissa as she makes her way to Jamaica with incredible power. It is already breaking records, and not in a good way.

Prepared

Yesterday afternoon, I did the usual grocery store run. When I got home, I did something I haven’t in a while. I took the time to prep for the week. Made up a batch of the family salad dressing, restocked our homemade pickled jalapenos, and prepped for dinner all in one fell swoop. Following dinner,…

Prayers for Paradise

Living here in SW Florida, we’ve had our share of hurricanes over the past few years. So far it appears we will get through this season without a major event here in our little paradise. Unfortunately, it looks like another paradise island, Jamaica is going to get the brunt of Hurricane Melissa. This storm is…

A Hero

Over the past three years, since I started writing this little blog, Father’s little blog, I dubbed it this week, I’ve shared a story about a friend of mine, Tommy Gilbert. I’ve shared the story on this day each year. I share it on this particular day because it was on this day, 19 years…

Clinging

I mentioned yesterday that I have a friend, a priest, who sends me a daily devotional text. After reading the little blog yesterday morning, he sent me an additional text. If you recall, in this little blog I was sharing about how the happenings in this world lately have me feeling tired and just a…

Keep Digging

This morning, I was reading a devotional that a friend sends me each day. It is focusing on the Lord’s Prayer and discusses the meaning of each section. We’re at the part of “Lead us not into temptation”. One of the pieces of scripture focused on Job. We all know how faithful Job was to…
