Ian

As I sit here on Thursday afternoon in my driveway for a bit I’m not even sure where to begin. First and foremost we are safe and ok. Our power is out, cell service is down connecting with the “outside world” is sketchy and much of our beautiful sunshine state is changed forever. Ian has…

In This Together

Well, here we are, in the midst of the big bad boy Ian. It’s been a long night of waiting, listening, and peeking out windows, (not sure why, LOL you can’t see anything). But, over the past 12 hours, I’ve seen God at work. His children helping each other, working on generators, putting up storm…

A Simple Psalm

Happy Monday everyone. Today’s little blog is short and sweet. It’s going to be a busy week around here, Ian is still not sure where he wants to go and is shifting some as of 11pm last night. As I read this Psalm this morning I thought it quite appropriate for the week ahead. As…

Some Days

Do you ever have those days when you are just out of sorts? You can’t put your finger on it, but the day is just odd. Ya, well I had one of those yesterday. There are just a lot of things going on, juggling multiple projects, closing out a big event, reading up on a…

The Beauty of the Rain

We joke here in SW Florida, in the summertime you can always tell the time of day by when the rain comes through. Yep, it’s a daily occurrence during the summertime, usually about 2 o’clock the skies turn gray, and boom they open up with the rain. These past few weeks though, the daily shows…

Offer it Up

A good friend of mine would give me this advice whenever I would talk with her and share a challenge, or a situation that was happening. I’d be frustrated, or upset that things weren’t going as I felt they should. Yes, you guessed it, I couldn’t control the situation. She would look at me and…

Stop, Breathe…

It’s so easy to feel like you’re the main juggling act in a circus. You’re dealing with work, kids’ activities, perhaps you’re caring for parents, community activities, your short staffed at work, and the list goes on… What day is it? Where do I need to be, did I forget that appointment? The day to…

Impatience, OY

I’ve found myself many times asking for forgiveness for my impatience. Those days when I’m overwhelmed, (like planning a big event and I can’t find my desk), the smallest thing can trip the trigger. Right?! Time to come to Father who has an INCREDIBLE amount of patience with his children, (even though most days we…

Want to Make God Laugh?

A friend of mine once said, “Do you want to make God laugh? Tell him your plans.” True statement. How often do we go down a path thinking we have a plan all laid out, only to have it totally upended. Everything is going along so smoothly, then wham, the bottom falls out. Remember, our…

Trust in Me

This phrase, or similar wording appears more times in the bible than you might think, (go ahead, do some reading). We all have times of fear or anxiety. It’s at these very times that we must “Fear Not” and press in to our Lord even stronger. God will not leave us. That doesn’t mean there…
