We are getting ready to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary this summer. T h i r t y – f i v e years. It seems like yesterday when we first met. How has time slipped by so quickly? Maybe it has something to do with life. You know – those things that fill our […]
Don’t let the forecast ruin your day

It’s been a very rainy weekend. The first question that popped into my head yesterday afternoon is why do we often lose interest in doing anything – even inside – when it’s raining? Our day instantly became a read- a- book or binge watch tv kind of day. The second question that came out of […]
Still Climbing…
I’ve read where people have climbed a mountain alone. I can’t begin to imagine how scary that would be. If you need help, where do you turn? Is it really that big of a deal to tackle a mountain alone? Just like life – we need people. We need God. The mountain I’ve been climbing […]
How to Climb a Mountain
I started 2019 with a bang! No, I didn’t go mountain climbing. I had to get a filling and a new crown. I mean, it just doesn’t get more exciting than that. Last year wasn’t a fun year for me. I had to go to the ER TWO times. I had to go to TWO […]
When Life Takes A Turn Into An Unknown Future

Our life has been up and down like a rollercoaster the last 3 years, and now it has my head spinning in circles. What. A. Ride. We’ve lived in Florida for three years. While most people our age choose to come down here to retire or stay during the winter months, we moved south because […]
Relationships
Once again, I heard a story about a family that doesn’t talk to one another any more. They don’t get together for birthdays, holidays, or any other day. Sisters, brothers, and parents live near one another, but apparently have chosen not to speak. Whether the door was closed on you, or you severed the ties with […]
Why do we worship?

When you think about heaven, what’s the first thing that comes to your mind? Maybe you think about angels, clouds, or streets of gold. Hopefully, you think about seeing and worshiping God. I mean, He IS the one who created you, pursued you, and has been waiting on you to join Him for eternity. I’m […]
LOVE IS NOT BLIND

We are here to love others. How are you doing that today? I recently met a very sweet woman who lives in a nursing home. I really don’t know a lot about her other than the few things she shared with me when I visited with her. I was careful not to ask a […]
The End is Only the Beginning

Fall. Some people love it, while others dread it. I guess it depends on where you live. It was always one of my favorite seasons when I lived in Indiana. Humidity was gone. Leaves were stunning. The change in weather (cooler temps) meant you could wear different clothes, and enjoy different activities. Even your menu […]
Lessons from a toddler

Have you ever been caught off guard and discovered that someone was either hurt, influenced, or inspired by something you did or said? God certainly has a way of revealing lessons in the most subtle way. I just got back to Florida after spending a few days in Minnesota. I went from 89 degree weather […]
