The Call to Be a Blessing
Last Saturday was my son’s birthday. I got up that morning and had breakfast and a cup of coffee and ran out to the grocery store to get him a chocolate chip cookie cake. That’s what he always requests for his birthday and I wanted to be sure his cookie cake was waiting for him … Continue reading
Seeking God’s Water
I was recently talking with my Daddy on the telephone and as Southerners tend to do, we ended up talking about the weather. We have had a dry spell over the past few weeks and we finally had a few much needed days of rain. I told him that I am always amazed at the … Continue reading
The Gift of the Pause
I was walking through campus on the way to my office one day last week, when I saw a man cutting the grass. It was early and he was up on a hill, a safe distance from me, but there was still some grass and dust flying around. As I got closer, he stopped his … Continue reading
Finding Joy in the Journey
I work at a large university and like all universities, parking is an issue. There’s just not enough of it. I recently changed jobs at the university. My last position was downtown.

Trusting the Process
My hubby and I are in the process of getting our house painted. It’s way past time and we have been putting it off. Who wants to spend money on paint? But, there are some window sills that have become bare over the years and they need protection, not to mention it’s just time for … Continue reading

My hubby and I are empty nesters and we have been talking about our next chapter, the possibility of downsizing and the possibility of a move closer to family among other various details. I have prayed a lot about our plans which feel like really … Continue reading
