I have a couple of them I like to wear while hanging around the house. I must admit that I even get them out sometimes in the summer, while we are watching a movie. I like the feeling of being covered …
Inspired at the cabin

Butterflies float on by, painting nature amidst the blue-green sky. Looking upward at a tapestry of green, the canopy of trees yields feelings so serene. Oblivious to me, nature thrives free. A gentle reminder, that stewards we must be. In this wilderness, I …
Unexplainable substitution
Born into poverty without a crib or a bed, born to a woman who was almost unwed. He left all the glory and beauty behind, to come to the world and save all mankind. As he grew, his acquaintances started to see he was somebody special, there was no one like he. His mother was …
Don’t look back.

Seasons Change
Birds in flight, singing songs to each other, Frogs croak their message, regardless of the weather. Butterflies flitter and flutter about, Grasshoppers jumping amongst plants and the ground. Trees sprout leaves and flowers from their buds, Rains pour down, threatening floods. The winds shift about, spreading seeds and fresh air, Spiders build webs to catch …

Prayers on our behalf, from the Holy Spirit inside us, Prayers from our savior, the Holy name of Jesus. Prayers from others, offered on our account, Prayers that are …
Embracing change
I am going to be completely honest up front: this blog post came from George aka Copilot. Now, Microsoft AI didn’t write this blog in any sense of the way, but I was playing around with it and told it I was thinking about my next blog post. The conversation that ensued, was amazing and …
The sins of the past
Have you ever used the phrase “The sins of my past…” to talk about something you are going through right now? I know I have. The most recent use of the phrase was in regard to my past sun worshiping days, when sunscreen was either not used, or not used appropriately. Other times I have …
The reminder
Every morning, I start my day with a cup of coffee and my bible app reading plans. If you are a regular reader, you have seen me mention this in previous posts. On the homepage of this app, there are 3 sections labeled Daily Refresh, Guided Scripture and Guided Prayer. The Guided Scripture section allows …
The Symphony of Nature
A couple of nights ago, we had our patio door open. It leads to our screened in, outdoor patio and the night air was so mild, we couldn’t resist the fresh air. The tree frogs were singing their ballads, and I reveled in the pleasant sound that would grow to a cacophony once summer reaches …
