It has been several years since I quit working.  It was a total change of schedule for me and, admittedly, I found myself with plenty of “free” time on my hands.  Sometimes, too much free time.  During those first weeks (maybe months) of being at home, I was not only…

Change is in the air.  Not quite time for autumn breezes…but soon.  But certainly changes.  In one of my Instagram posts last week, I hashtagged that change was coming.  There is simply a lot going on in my world lately.  All exciting and full of possibilities – but, nonetheless, change. …

Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation.  Selah.  Psalm 68:19 We are blessed people.  I am richly blessed.  We sing songs about all our blessings, memorize scripture verses (like the one above) and have quotes by the hundreds reminding us to…

We have finished six months in 2020.  I know, seriously, in many ways, it feels a lot longer than six months; but all the unusual (and completely unanticipated) events aside, we are half-way through the year.  The half-way mark seems like an appropriate time to rehearse – or take account…

Summer:)  There may be a few more days until it is official (on the calendar) and our temperatures lately have been rather spring-like, but in the yard (and in my mind!), it is summer.  Everything is blooming and oh so pretty!  Well,I am still waiting for the crape myrtle to really…

It is Tuesday afternoon.  I should have had a post written long before now – and had it posted as well. But I considered not posting.  What else could be said about the pandemic?  About our current situation?  I just could not think of anything else that needed to be…

The book of Leviticus.  How many times have you read through it?  (Just curious.)  Over the last several weeks, I have been reading this Old Testament book during my morning Bible time.  It has not been without its challenges.  If I am honest, more than a few mornings, I have…

Several weeks ago, I wrote a post regarding Christians and happiness.  I discussed a couple of ways, I believe, we drain – even sabotage – our happiness.  I ended that post saying I would follow-up with a couple of suggestions for encouraging our happiness.  And, then, Valentine’s posts as well…
