I’ve learned the art of saying no – no to them and no to me. I am free to do nothing and go nowhere, if I so choose. Guilt is no longer my bedpartner when I choose me. There are no apologies for not wanting to. Where ever I show up, I am there 100%.Continue reading “I’m Free”

A Day Of Grace
Let’s be honest; many are not the dads we wanted. They don’t all show up like this. We don’t all have these treasured, unforgettable moments with them. The memories are often the ones we want to forget. Marred with coldness, disconnection, lies, hurt, abuse, rejection and abandonment. Some tried, but even at their best theyContinue reading “A Day Of Grace”
No – I Don’t…
Religion. The reason behind many atrocities in our world. We sit on opposite sides of a table and spew hate at each other while claiming that we are closer to God than the other. We twist scriptures to formulate doctrine that advance our selfish ambitions; while our hearts are void of love and concern forContinue reading “No – I Don’t…”
God’s Not Mad
A few days ago a young friend of mine and were I having a conversation about finding a spouse. I told her I’d pray for her, but she could ask God for direction too. She made a comment that has been playing over in my mind for a long minute. I could sense it cameContinue reading “God’s Not Mad”
May It Be Today
I find connections in the in-betweens – time away from both work and home. Work can be overwhelming and home life can be draining. Finding balance means I’m at my best in both places. Taking time to reset and refresh always brings out the best in me. It never hurts to do it with aContinue reading “May It Be Today”
On a Wing and a Prayer
No one prepared us. Like ocean waves they come crashing. Changing the landscape of our world. Life will never be the same. Life now comes with a different view. Hopes and dreams shifts – priorities change. We trade in the two door for a four door. God entrusted us with precious cargo. We pray weContinue reading “On a Wing and a Prayer”
That was Then
That was September 2024 during the hurricane season. The avocado tree in my back yard didn’t survive the winds that Helene brought. We had to have it chopped and removed. In falling, thankfully it missed my back porch and roof by just a few inches. It also snapped some service cables nearby. Sometimes when weContinue reading “That was Then”
In light Of…
I saw this plaque in a store in St. Augustine a few weeks ago. It reminded me how careful I had to be with my time and energy. To not allow myself to be ‘drawn out’ from my place of peace. To choose my battles wisely. In light of eternity, somethings are not worth theContinue reading “In light Of…”
Today’s Melody
I truly appreciate song writers who touch the soul with their lyrics. Words that often echo what you wanted to say but couldn’t. Songs that wake you up and remind you of your ‘why’. Those that redirect your thoughts to the greatness of the God we claim to worship. We are prone to forget whoContinue reading “Today’s Melody”
I Look To You – Again
“The God who made the world and everything in it…doesn’t live in custom-made shrines or need the human race to run errands for him, as if He couldn’t take care of himself. Starting from scratch, He made the entire human race and made the earth hospitable, with plenty of time and space for living soContinue reading “I Look To You – Again”
