A few weeks ago, I found that I was locked out of my blog. Passwords didn’t work. Nothing worked. I had told the Lord that I would post as long as He gave me something to say. Suddenly, I had nowhere to say it. That was June 23. My first reaction was incredulous panic. How…

Seeing God in the Everyday
A Cry in the Night
In the Morning
Weeping may last through the night, but joy comes with the morning. Psalm 30:5b NLT Every morning I wake up and know that I am blessed. No matter how much drama is in my life or how much pain my body may be in, I know God watching over me. (unknown) How precious are your thoughts…
Self-Compassion
I’m in a rocky place right now. The cats, post-op, are not eating well and need a lot of lap time. The worry and stressing are causing a Chronic Fatigue flare – I get dizzy whenever I move my head. I want to be a fountain of tenderheartedness, but right now the cats are soaking…
7 Rules of Life
(A poster similar to this hangs in my kitchen.) 1. MAKE PEACE WITH YOUR PAST, SO IT DOESN’T SPOIL YOUR PRESENT. Your past does not define your future – your actions and beliefs do.So don’t look back. You aren’t going that way. 2. WHAT OTHERS THINK OF YOU IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. Your value…
Wait for It …

Hope and joy dance together and poets wax eloquent. In early June the world of leaf and blade and flowers explodes, and every sunset is different. John Steinbeck It was…
After the Storm
After the storm, the dark makes way for the light. (unknown) Our God, after the storms, will send the calm. St. Francis de Sales After winter comes the summer. After night comes the dawn. And after every storm, there comes clear, open skies. Samuel Rutherford I know God is with me not just because of…
Here and Now
There is only one time we have: it is called “now.” That is where the action is. That is where the lessons are learned. That is where we live. That is where God is with us – in “Now.” So are you, if you let yourself be. It is absolutely impossible to experience the goodness…
Looking Up
I woke that morning with a choice to make. After many days of cold, rainy weather, alternating with hot humid weather, a day finally dawned that was cool enough to work in the garden without freezing or sweating. Would I go out, or would I procrastinate? But the weeds were taking over, so I decided…
