He’s the God of Time & the God of Timing
My two mini-me’s and I planned all week for this day. It is girls-day-out. The husband/dad is out of town, so it is a perfect set-up. But, first order of the day is taking Emma (their Yorkie) to the vet to see after a little health issue. That sets us back on getting to Neiman’s…
Soaring Above It All
I saw this photo on a friend’s FB post about her recent vacation. Right away a blog started forming in my head. Her FB comment was: “Oh, today, let’s be adventurers! Feel the wind and fly.” Obviously, she and her husband took her words to action. I commented on her post: “I love that! I…
At Least He Got Out of the Boat!
I was inspired by my “anchor” blog yesterday enough to give me “meat” for my blog today. Here comes Jesus walking on the water. He calls Peter to come to Him, so in a bold, audacious step of faith, Peter got out of the boat and started walking on water. He didn’t hesitate. He took…
My Anchor Has Holding Power

MY Mercies are New Every Morning
I wish that those words were my words. I mean MY mercies. I read this scripture: “The faithful love of the LORD never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is His faithfulness; His mercies are new every morning.” Lamentations 3:22-23. I know those words are so true. I know His faithful love, His fresh mercy…
The Darker the Night, the More Crucial Our Light
At church on Sunday, during our public prayer petitions, we heard: “For those whose lives were lost in the El Paso and Dayton, Ohio shootings, and for their families, we pray to the Lord”. I had not heard the news. I think: “Dear Lord, have mercy. More tragedy? More crazies with guns?” I didn’t watch…
A Rainy Morning Lesson on Vanity
It’s Sunday morning. Last night I laid the clothes out that I’m wearing to church this morning. It’s an early one. I must be there to sign in by 7:30 am. I’m doing my best to give away clothes that I haven’t worn in a year, so I pull out an outfit I haven’t worn…
