Don’t panic! It’s not Thanksgiving yet. Funny how we think of gratitude and giving thanks mainly around the holidays. However, it truly should be a year-round practice, with gratitude always being in our thoughts and expressed to those around us. As a child, I remember participating in lots of scavenger hunts in school and birthday… Continue reading Gratitude

Why follow From God's Lips?
In our busy world, our soul desires quiet time with God. His desire is that we spend time with him, focusing only our building our relationship with him. He wants to hear our words speaking to Him - our needs, concerns and definitely remembering to give Him thanks for everything - both in joy and sorrow. God is calling you to spend time with him through the positive words He has placed in my heart. I hope you will, along with me, share and grow in His love.
Rainbow
How many rainbows have you witnessed in your lifetime? I bet quite a few; and it never gets old does it? This time of the year, especially here in Florida, it’s hurricane season. Every year the predictions are plentiful, with the “experts” trying to estimate how many storms will get named, and everyone else praying… Continue reading Rainbow
Prayer
What does your prayer time look like? Do you have a special place or time of the day that you sit quietly with Jesus? I wonder if we did a survey, posing those same questions, if we wouldn’t be surprised by the results. I must admit that I have trouble with structured prayer. I admire… Continue reading Prayer
Carry
In the almost 49 years of marriage (officially September) my husband and I have called four different residences our home. With each move, we saw it as the beginning of a new and exciting chapter for us, while still holding onto the many fond memories of each that we still reminisce about today. In addition… Continue reading Carry
Fresh
During these warmer summer months, the cooling word of fresh brings so many images to my mind. I can picture the clothesline in our back yard that held freshly washed sheets and that wonderful fresh fragrance that now only comes in the form of dryer sheets or fabric softener. I think of summertime and the… Continue reading Fresh
Meet
I don’t know about you, but I am definitely a “people person.” Don’t get me wrong, there are many times that I prefer just to sit quietly with no noise, especially if it’s sitting quietly in prayer during my day or on the beach watching the waves crash to shore over and over again. Some… Continue reading Meet
Flavor
Let’s just say I was a difficult child when it came to eating. With a very limited menu of food items that I would consume, I’m sure it was frustrating for both my mother and father. Fortunately, (or maybe unfortunately) the today me is not as fussy. While my choices in the past were either… Continue reading Flavor
Grace
This is scary. So many times, this word comes to mind, but I’m never quite sure how to put something down on paper. Today, the word grace whispered to me, but I, again, chose to file the word for another time. Then, I went to do the scripture readings for the day. What was today’s… Continue reading Grace
Hands
How much do we take our hands for granted? One of the many parts that God created, when He created you and me. Did you ever contemplate what He also wanted us to do with those hands? Well, here’s a short list (possibly) that I think how He intended us to use them: Encouragement –… Continue reading Hands
Spread
I know we’re honoring all fathers today, but I couldn’t resist spreading this word now. Let me tell you, there is no one I knew who could put on a spread like my mother-in-law! Boy, could she cook and entertain, all seeming like no effort at all. It just came naturally, as my father-in-law used… Continue reading Spread
