Walking with God
Watch your “not-enough” become “more-than-enough”

Open Seashells…Open Hands
Scattered along the shore were these clam-type of seashells. As I was listening to my praise music, while walking down the beach, I continued noticing a multitude of these shells. Each time I would see either a single open shell or a collective amount washed ashore...
Encouragement: He promises are true…just as this water is so blue.
When I called to you for help, you answered me and gave me strength. If I am in trouble, you keep me alive. If my enemies are angry, you save me from them. Lord, I know you will do what you have promised. Lord , your faithful love will last forever. You are the one...

Navigation 101 with Cole

Footprints in the sand. No, not the beautiful poem about Jesus carrying you, but literally a collection of footprints of all shapes and sizes were imprinted in the sand. Then, this little handprint caught my attention. The handprint belonged to a small child. ...
Do you need to hurry up and wait?
Random thoughts while walking: There was a little boy, looked to be about four years of age, standing on a boogie board. There was barely any water beneath him. He kept moving his legs as if he was trying to make it go. This child was smiling and yet appeared...
Being Strong in COVID times:
Our daughter, Holly, received an unwanted and not-so-nice birthday present. . . . The morning skies were brilliantly blue. The waters were clear, calm, and refreshing. While Tim and Cole fished for snook along the shore, I decided to disembark the boat and walk...
Who is in control?
I look at the variety of shells in my hand and think about how God has us in His hands. No matter our shape, color of our skin, or socioeconomic...He loves us all and desires for all to do right, turn to Him, believe in His Son Jesus Christ, love others and follow...
Where to look in unsettling times:
LOOK UP. Trust in the Lord and wait quietly for his help. Don’t be angry when people make evil plans and succeed. Psalm 37:7 Life gets/is crazy and confusing, so look up to The One who knows all and see all and can/will calm you. When you’re outside, wherever you...
