What is the first image that comes to mind when you hear that word? It’s an easy answer for me – the three wise men following the star. For many, once Christmas Day is over, that is the end of the season. Trees and decorations get taken down, music on the radio returns to “normal”… Continue reading Wise

Connection
Decorating for Christmas is not an easy, one day, event in our home, especially when it comes to opening the bins that were packed away containing all the extension cords for our holiday lights. I’ve tried many times to avoid this frustrating task by busying myself with other “chores” while my husband starts the process… Continue reading Connection
Arrival
I was sitting here waiting for the stain to dry on the project my husband and I were working on. Boom! Then suddenly Advent was on my mind, realizing it would be here before I knew it. What does this special time of the year mean? I looked up the definition which inspired me right… Continue reading Arrival
Calling
The word calling brings back an instant memory for me. As a child I loved to play outside. I am probably dating myself, but I loved playing hopscotch, roller skating, and other silly games with my friends. Of course, my mom would always call me to come inside for dinner. Many times, I knew she… Continue reading Calling
Baseball
Well, that word came out of left field. (Sorry - I couldn't resist that one.) It is that time of the year when the best teams are striving for that coveted title of world series champion.

Can you recall your first encounter with the ocean waves dancing over… Continue reading Oceans
Marathon
First, let’s get this straight with regards to whether I’ve ever run a marathon. These legs of mine don’t like to run, unless someone is chasing me, or my eye spots an ice cream establishment. However, I greatly admire and respect those that have met this challenge. If you and I put our heads together,… Continue reading Marathon

One – I was struck by lightning recently! Lightning in the sense that God can strike at moment’s notice, with no warning. One – it only takes one person to make a difference, and He reminded me of that again. With Jesus, was it important to Him to count the numbers of the followers He… Continue reading One
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
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
