Surprisingly Spiritual Day
This afternoon, a friend and I decided to go out and about. We had no plan at all – just wanted to get out and get away for a bit. We headed North for no real reason and ended up on the highway for a bit. After a while, we got off at a small […]
An Understanding Relationship
A very good friend came by somewhat unexpectedly this evening. She was upset from an event that had occurred a little earlier in the day. We were able to take some time and just talk things through. She was able to get out her concerns and I was too. We understand one another. By the […]
Uneventful Travel
Today I was up very early to bring my son to the airport. I never really look forward to that drive as there are always too many cars on the highway going way too fast and following way too close. It being the beginning of a holiday weekend, I figured it would be much worse. […]
Finally Football
My grandson has been a football fanatic for – – well, I guess his whole life. He has followed specific teams, players, and stats. A few years ago, when he was about 12, he set up a family football league. Of course, he is always in the top of the winner’s board. He has always […]
Hurricane Heroes
For days now since the hurricane pummeled Texas, there have been images and stories of heroism. People have come from other states to volunteer their time and skills. Fundraisers are popping up all over the country. Those who have resources are offering them to benefit others. “Regular” people are helping and even saving others. Even […]
Pair of Photographers
A friend of mine, along with her brother and sister, went to Wyoming last week to view the eclipse. A few days later, she shared some amazing pictures that her brother took using his telescope. I thought they were truly spectacular. I showed them to my dad who was equally as impressed and wondered what […]
Book Re-gifted
Today I read a beautiful story from a friend. Her grandparents gave her a book titled, “Dear God Kids – Our Family”, on her 7th birthday. As time went on, the book disappeared, and she thought it was gone forever. That wasn’t the case. Here is her story: “Yesterday for my birthday, I received a […]
Growing Faith
At church today, the priest talked about how faith is – should be – always growing. He talked about how we judge our own faith in different circumstances. Perhaps there are times in our lives when our faith is strong, we feel very connected to God. Then something may happen and we question that relationship. […]
Watching Bats
We made a trip up to the cabin this afternoon and it was beautiful as usual. As the sun disappeared behind the mountain, the few clouds that lingered seemed to be on fire. I put on my sweatshirt, grabbed a chair, and sat out on the deck to watch. The orange sky gradually grew darker […]
Broken Things
This morning when I was out driving, the song, “Broken Things” by Matthew West came on. It is one of my new favorite songs because it is about how God can work through each one of us – regardless of our condition. We only need to allow Him to. I often think of the saints […]
