Never a dull moment – I think that about sums up life these days, right? I for one am a bit weary and long for a break, a quiet, a sense it’s all okay. Recently we flew to see our out-of-state son and his… Continue Reading “What we need to: see”

Ever ask this: ‘do you want the good news first or the bad news’? Then there’s always the line: ‘I saved the best news for last’. Pretty much our days are like that – good mixed with the bad, and some that are the… Continue Reading “More GOOD News”

Quiet, very few days are quiet around here (especially lately with some major tree trimming). The sky is clear blue and a soft breeze tickles limbs with green shoots appearing. In Florida, spring is underway. A theme I find in various places throughout the… Continue Reading “Be Quiet”

I have a best friend – thirty-four years of best. We don’t see each other often but long ago she started saying she couldn’t wait for our next adventure. I wonder if Jesus’ disciples thought the same way. With Jesus, life was anything but… Continue Reading “Adventure”

I don’t like surprises. (Weird, I know.) In the many years I’ve been married, my husband has maybe been able to surprise me once or twice. I’m just one of those people who likes knowing what’s next. Our sweet group of Jesus lovers is… Continue Reading “Surprise!”
