Gone are the lines at the telephone booth (picking up the white pages or dialing 0 to ask the operator for the phone number you wanted to call), paying for your call by inserting a pocketful of coins (not an easy app!) and then the navigation of the rotary dial (yes, touching the very publicContinue reading “Call Me!”

Can you see it?  Can you smell it?  Can you taste it?  The crisp, warm, buttery, toasty crunch oozing with cheesy flavored goodness?  Smashed together and heated up – the results are divine! But what if the ingredients weren’t combined?  What if they weren’t heated up?  Just imagine the cold slices of lunch meat sittingContinue reading “The Panini”

Long lines and long names sometimes make ordering a coffee a chore…..even if the sweet treat at the end is worth it! But then I consider a good cup of tea.  The slow boil, the flavor selection, the special cup and thennnnnn the peaceful sip.  Totally different than coffee, tea has its own special role to play.Continue reading “Time for Tea”

I was trying to get settled in church on Sunday….my coffee cup in one hand, my phone appropriately silenced (but let me check a few more times juuuuuust to be 100% sure), my purse filled with a million “just in case” comforts and my notebook and pen….now to find my husband who was already seated.  IContinue reading “Prepare for the Journey!”

Consider trying on a bathing suit cover up in January….The tag says, ‘One Size Fits All’, but we ALL know that one size NEVER fits all! So why do we do it?  Why do we judge?  Why do we push our expectations and preferences on others? God made one of you.  And one of yourContinue reading “One Size”

Has your New Year been smooth and easy?  Everything going your way?  Ummmm….probably not.  Some people are suffering….other people are realllllly suffering.  How are we supposed to navigate these days of sickness and tragedy and trauma? When life doesn’t make sense it’s a natural reaction to dig deeper.  Try harder.  Find answers.  What else canContinue reading “What Are We Supposed to Do?”

I read recently that yesterday, Monday, January 6, 2025, was called the New York New Year!?  It is the beginning of the first full week of the new year.  (I don’t know what that has to do with New York, but that’s beside the point!)  Isn’t it funny that God would send a snowstorm on thatContinue reading “NY NY”

Ready or not here it comes!  Not 2025 – but every next year, month, day, hour, minute, second. How will you spend each moment?  Growing closer to Jesus or growing away from Him? Positive growth IS possible – even the Grinch’s heart grew 3 sizes! “growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power accordingContinue reading “Growth”

What were Joseph and Mary doing one week before Jesus was born? They were doing what God created them to do.  And they were expecting and seeking the Messiah. What are you doing one week before Christmas? What has God created you to do? Are you seeking and expecting the Messiah? Let’s get the right things on ourContinue reading “One Week to Go!”

We all know people who are going through challenges.  What can one little person do to make things better for them?  How can we erase the pain and answer all the questions?  We can’t!  And even though we know the One Who CAN supply all their needs (Philippians 4:19), there is still something WE CAN do.  WeContinue reading “Take a Stand!”
