GO…’TILL HE SAYS STOP!

Hey friends, how are you today? Wow! Can you believe we are here! 2023!! How was your Christmas and how did you usher in the new year?  Happy, happy new year to you and yours.  I love this quote by Oswald Chambers “Faith is deliberate confidence in the character of the God whose ways you may not understand” and again this one by Chuck Swindoll “I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me…

LISTEN, CAN YOU SEE IT?

Hey friends, how are you today? How was your week? I had a great week; our weather has certainly been fabulous. It motivated me to spend time outside.  I love the outdoors. I look forward to the time spent in the Lord’s beautiful world, for surely, He has blessed us with wondrous beauty.  I love the scent of freshly cut lawns. I love the sounds the kids make as they play and squabble with each…

Hey friends, how are you today? How has been your week so far? First, I would like to say, ‘thank you’.  Thank you for your prayers and your encouragement throughout this time of bereavement.  You stood in the gap for me, and I appreciated this more than you can know. You took the time to remember me, and my family and we are very grateful. Thank you for your understanding, some of you have been…

TRADITIONS…. TRADITION!!

Hey friends, how are you today? How was your Easter weekend? Did you attend church service? What are a few of your Easter traditions? We do not have any in our household.  Easter egg hunting was not a ‘thing’ in the Caribbean when we were younger and somehow, we really never got into it, here.  This is one tradition that will probably not be passed on from one generation to the next.  In Guyana,…

WE ALL NEED THIS…

Hey friends, how are you doing today? Warm weather has finally come to our neighborhood, thank You, Lord after a few days of rain and clouds.  Sunshine has returned and brought warmth with it.  But with the joy of spring comes also the frustration of allergies. I suppose we must balance the scales, rgIt’s a  beautiful day, today, because each new day brings its own supply of grace and mercy. And…

THANK YOU FOR THE ‘NO’

Hey friends, how are you today? Unlike yesterday, which was a bright, beautiful, cloudless, sunny day, today is a dark, gloomy, cloudy, and sunless day.  The threat of snow is in the air, as a matter of fact, we are under a winter storm advisory.  Our meteorologist think it is a minor threat for those of us who live in the upstate of Upstate NY.  Although our snow levels are down, three to six…

Hey friends, how are you today? How was your week? Did you miss me? I missed you guys.  I missed the encouragements and the happenings in your life.  So, how are you? What’s been going on in your life? Have you or someone you know been affected by COVID’19?

We’ve made three trips to Ohio in just about a  two-week period. We picked up the girls for spring break, took them back to school, went…

ON THE WAY TO BECOMING…

Hey friends, how are you today? Really… how are you? Thankfully, spring is quickly approaching.  not only does the temperature give evidence of this beautiful phenomenon, but our environment, ever so slowly, agrees with this change.  Creation does not dictate its path, he (yeah, I think it’s male) does not do what he wants.  He obeys His Master, willingly without negotiation, humans are the only…
