Hearing God
A friend of mine shared a quote by Toby Mac that my parents and I found meaningful. “It’s hard to hear God’s voice when you’ve already decided what you want Him to say.” I Found God today in a meaning quote.
BBQ Now and Then
Today for 4th of July, we had a faux BBQ complete with beer bratwurst on toasted buns, corn on the cob, and all the sides. My dad was beyond thrilled that we were able to recreate the meal he would have when he celebrated the 4th of July as a child. That made it all […]
Remaining Faithful
I have been missing my friends, so I was grateful to have lunch with one today. I hadn’t talked with her in months. Both of us have had our own struggles and challenges which we talked about. But we also had a lot to laugh about. Before we left we encouraged each other, vowed to […]
The Race Around
We decided to go out for a walk after dinner tonight. My sister was here, so the 4 of us headed out. At the end of our sidewalk the familiar question arose – which way should we go? I suggested we start out going different directions and see who makes it around the circle first. […]
I Lava You
Tonight we watched a little TV on the Disney channel. We usually like to watch a “short” to kind of wrap it up. Tonight we came across “Lava”. It was just a little story of 2 volcanoes in love put to a catchy tune. My mom sang it and now it is in my head, […]
Photographing Fourteeners
Today my sister told us about a presentation that was going to be online this evening. It highlighted a book that featured the mountains in the state that are over 14,000 feet. The book tells stories about how the peaks got their names and it includes photographs and other artwork. We got online after dinner […]
Bishop’s Ordination
The bishop in our Diocese recently retired. The new bishop was announced a few weeks ago and we learned all about him. He came from a parish in Nebraska and is one of 10 children. He worked as a volunteer for Native American Missions before deciding to become a priest. His ordination was today and […]
EDM
I had a good opportunity today to listen to some music, so I put on my Pandora app. I listened to a couple of fun songs, but they were not the contemporary Christian that I was expecting and I wondered how they popped up. Then I realized I was still on the EDM channel that […]
Promised Peace
After our blessed time at church yesterday, we all slept peacefully and even slept in late. I can’t remember the last time that has happened. After breakfast, we decided to get outside before the forecasted rain storms arrived. My sister, parents, and I went to a local park that my parents hadn’t been to for […]
Back to Church Too
For a while now, my parents and I have been talking about getting them back to church. They haven’t attended in person for about a year and a half now. We have been waiting for them to feel comfortable in doing so. It has really been on my dad’s heart recently, and this afternoon was […]
