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…

Comfort in a Psalm

Over the last few days, like most everyone, I’ve been seeing the news reports about the fires in California. When I heard that the winds were hurricane force and the fires are 0% uncontained, my heart was heavy. We know hurricane force winds here in Florida, but ours usually come with lots of water, I…

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…

The Quiet Work

We’re beginning the first full week of the new year. So I guess you could say we are officially in 2025. Last week in this little blog I talked about New Year resolutions versus commitments.

Resolution or Commitment

It’s a new year and with that comes all those New Year’s resolutions. You know those decisions we make to do or not do something for the year. The start of the new year brings new hope, a chance for a fresh start, an opportunity to do things differently. If you are like me, you’ve…

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,…

The Recipes & Memories

I’ve gotten into a little routine with our youngest daughter. We text each other pretty regularly around dinner time, sharing what we’re making for dinner. I’ll also ask her opinion on a particular spice she might use or how she would doctor up a certain dish. Last night my husband and I realized we hadn’t…

The Power of One – Not

If you’re like me it’s not really in your dna to ask for assistance. I’m a pretty resourceful person, I always say, I have an ops brain, meaning I like to solve problems. I can look at a situation, analyze it pretty quickly and my brain kicks in to how to best handle things. I’m…
