Walking with God
A Little Marriage Advice
I was recently asked if Tim and I ever fight. This young lady went on to say, “No, I mean fight! Like scream and yell and throw things.” She admitted that she and her ex used to have fights like the ones she was in question about. My first reply was that I feel that...
Motivational Monday: Stay Hydrated
Last week, I was working in the yard for three hours, 8:30 AM - 13:30 AM. Within that time period, I only drank one bottled water. I thought that I was doing okay, because I would go and drink some water. But...I truly wasn’t okay. I came inside, drank water,...
Our Birthday Girl!
For the past few weeks I’ve been watching a momma and daddy osprey take care of their baby, high up in the tree. Today was the day the baby was learning to fly. It was a precious sight to see the parents nurturing and teaching their baby bird. What an appropriate...
Good Morning, Sonshine.
I pray that you have a glorious day! This is the day that the Lord has made. Let us be glad and rejoice in it. Psalm 118:24 The sun obeys God...why shouldn’t we? Go be the light that shines bright for Christ. Someone needs to see some Sonshine today. May it be through...
“Udderly” Important Message
7F12E01E-EC38-4368-99A2-8BB84021FC2C (I hope you can view the above video, or this paragraph won’t make sense.) A couple of years ago, I downloaded the Snapchat app with my daughter and niece just so I could play around with those silly photo sharing capabilities. I...
Oregon Bound…Prayers Appreciated
Encourage each other and help each other grow stronger in faith, just as you are already doing. 1 Thessalonians 5:11 What an appropriate bible verse to wake up to this morning. Why? Because mine and Tim’s youngest is heading on a mission trip with twelve other...
Don’t Do Bad Stuff. Good Stuff is much better.
Today’s word is simple… “Don’t do bad stuff. Do good stuff. Good stuff is better. Man up.” That’s how simple the pastor put it this morning. In 2 Corinthians 13:7-9 Paul simply tells us to: Pray to God. Don’t pray to anything or anyone else. Go directly to God. Don’t...
Someone is Watching
Do you see this bracelet that has a tree on it? You may observe it can say it is an oak tree. Another will say, “That’s the Tree of Knowledge.” Well, call it what you want, but I saw it and bought with an almond tree on my mind. An almond tree? Yes. And here’s why…...
Promise-Reminders
Every day is not rainbows, butterflies, and sandcastles...but this morning started out that way. While going for my morning walk, it was as if God lifted my head and gazed my eyes on His promises. I looked up into the sky and saw a beautiful rainbow through the palm...
Happy Memorial Day…He will guard you wherever you go.
“Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.” Romans 12:15 Today is Memorial Day. I can’t help but think of those who have sacrificed their lives for our freedom. Recently, a friend lost her nephew (Capt. Mark Weber) while he was on a mission in the...
“Motivational Monday”: Storms of Life
Today's "Motivational Monday" video is below. I had barely reached the beach when my hat went flying off my head. The wind was whipping and whirling. My hand was reaching for the hat, when the wind carried it down the shoreline. I could have become frustrated or given...
Time for a Self-Evaluation
I’m sitting here listening to the howling of the wind, with gusts anywhere from 25 to 37 mph. The typical Florida summer thunderstorms are intermittent. I love to hear the rain patter the rooftop. Tropical Storm Alberto has provided some time for me to do some...
