Re-membering

Re-membering (I know my FB posts are longer than suggested, but I’m on purpose. I know most wouldn’t click the blogspot link, so I post in both places.) This post was written 5 years ago, and it bears repeating — especially for those who have lost a loved one and for those who just don’t…

Worry Less; Smile More Often

Worry Less; Smile More Often I’ve posted this photo before, but it is such a powerful reminder of the childlike faith and trust that we all need so much. I just had to share it again for you AND me. Don’t you just love watching a baby sleeping? His/Her adorable little smiles that just indicate…

Seed Time and Harvest

#TBT This is the Master’s Four Quartet in the early 70s. Check out those “matching” dresses on the girls and the matching suits, ties and shirts on the guys. And how about that trendy “bee hive” that I wore. Those curls you put on top of your head were the “in thing” back then, and…

Patience is a Virtue

Patience is a Virtue I saw this Instagram post and photo a few days ago and I was inspired — so much so that I’m posting about it here today. “It all started with one baby camel. Three years later, globe-trotting adventure photographer Allan Dixon continues to take selfies with wildlife, sometimes relaxing with them…

Faith Talk

Yesterday I posted “Keep your words soft and sweet….because tomorrow you might have to eat them”. That is so true, and to take it a step further…. keeping our words positive and encouraging is equally as important to us and to others. People often ask me “What’s the secret to all that energy and enthusiasm…

Keep Your Words Soft and Sweet

Last week I called an 800 number to get info on an online product. After a long wait in the queue, my conversation with the customer service rep was upbeat and informative, until I told the agent that I’d need to call back once I’ve made up my mind about ordering the product. That’s when…

GOD WITH US…..All the Time

God is always with us and we often take it for granted. The Creator of you and me, and everything that was and is and is to come — is with us. Have you had moments when you sensed Him so close? Maybe it was while you were praying or singing a song or holding…

Renewed: From the Inside Out

Renewed: From the Inside Out Okay….so I’m in that mature season where it seems I’m noticing a lot of those advertisements and labels that shout out “Renew your youth! Reduce those lines and wrinkles! Guaranteed success or your money back! Become a new you!” And, I’ll admit, I’ve yielded to their promises and purchased some…

Cleaning Up — Cleaning Out — Cleaning In

It’s TOTAL Clean-Up, Clean-Out, Clean-In Time! Last week I posted about “cleaning up” — closets, cabinets, clothes, etc. And, I’m quite pleased to say “I conquered!” Yesterday, however, I took it another step. I realized how much time I was spending going through my emails each day. Valuable time being consumed by advertisements, alerts, and…
