Friends
Rest and Reflection
I have been super tired the last couple days, so I was very happy that our friend came over today to stay with my mom for a couple of hours. I visited my son and his wife who are celebrating their 20th wedding anniversary today. Then I spent some quiet time in church as I […]
Ice Cream Visit
One of our neighbors came over for a little while today while I ran to the grocery store. Before she came, my mom was talking about what to offer her out of hospitality. Just at that time, I got a text from the neighbor saying that she was going to bring over some ice cream. […]
Making an Entrance
When my sister arrived this morning, we all said hello and how are you and such. However, my brother’s dog was super excited and ran to her and wagged her tail and tried her best not to jump up. My sister petted her and told her what a good girl she was. It reminded me […]
Roller Skates
Last night my mom and I sat out on the porch for a while before bed. There was a young boy across in the street wearing rollerblades. He was going around and around and around the block. My mom counted that he went around 8 times. It could have been more. My mom commented that […]
Computer Fixer
My mom’s friend got a new computer a while ago and had not been able to figure out where all her files were, or how to get them transferred from the old computer. Today my brother went to her house and got it all fixed up for her. She found some files that she thought […]
Hug With Prayers
After thinking about far away friends, I had conversations with a few today. It was so nice to catch up. However, even when I don’t talk with people for a long time for whatever reason, I still think about and pray for them. I saw a post from a friend that said, “When my arms […]
Returning To Support
I talked with a friend today. We both moved away within about a year of each other. She moved to a place with family and long time friends. Unfortunately, it didn’t work out as well as she had hoped. She told me that she recently moved back. She explained about the area she was living […]
Passing Through
I heard a story today that I loved. A young woman was in the airport with some friends having dinner before their flight. The gentleman who waited on them said he had been working there for 11 years. He loved his job now, but that wasn’t always the case. One day, the man realized that […]
Airport Blessings
I talked with a far away friend today who traveled over the weekend. She was a little nervous after not flying for over 27 years. She told me how she was struggling to figure out how to get from the airport to the hotel. She prayed right then and there and God helped her through […]
St. Neighbor
We quickly became friends with our neighbors when they moved in several years ago. They are kind, generous, faithful, and have lots of great stories to tell. Recently, I have been asking the husband to take care of some things that I just can’t do. My mom and I were talking about him at dinner. […]
