What Will You See?
I spent the last week on the high seas, sailing to the Bahamas. We had great weather, especially for the New York area, in February, until our last sea day on the way back. We woke up to overcast weather, rain, and fog thick enough that I couldn’t decipher where the sea ended, and the […]
What are you Worrying About?
This week, within a 24 hour window, I had two things resolve themselves in the most unexpected ways. If you didn’t know, I’m someone who likes to plan. Planning works really well for me. Until I bump up against something that I just can’t plan my way out of and I just have to breathe […]
Going Above and Beyond
I’ve been working on a client issue for close to a year. Yup.. almost a year. There are some things that were beyond our control and we just had to wait. I had to call my back office for guidance and the first person who picked up, while professional, was quick to transfer me to […]
The Gifts of Waiting and Trusting
This has not happened a lot recently. Going to bed on a Saturday night, not knowing what my topic will be, and then waking up and still not knowing. As I woke up, knowing what time my blog needs to be posted (I work best with deadlines), I looked at the time and continued to ask […]
Using God’s Promises to Direct Us in 2023
How many of us are waiting for God to deliver on a promise He made us? What do you do in the time that the promise has been made and God’s deliverance? How do you wait? What do you do? I was curious to find out how many promises are in the bible. The highest […]
Mini Pancakes
Food decisions can be difficult in my home. Especially traditional breakfast foods. A couple weeks ago, while I pushed my daughter in the cart, through the aisles of Target, she saw a box of mini pancakes. My rule is: if you promise you’ll eat it, I’m ok buying it. Because of her vantage point, she […]
Living Your Life
Yesterday, I heard of the tragic and sudden passing of my church’s conference former president. I did not know him well, but somehow throughout the years, we had become Facebook friends. As I read through many of the beautiful tributes, this was a man who was deeply respected. I think of one of the few […]
Low Battery?
Starting a few weeks ago, whenever I turned on my car, the dashboard lit up, warning me that my car key had a low battery. Each time, I looked at it thinking ‘I’ll get to it soon’. As soon as I got out of the car, I forgot about it. Until the next time I […]
Do Not Despise Humble Beginnings
As the year comes to a close, this thought comes to mind, ‘do not despise humble beginnings’. A friend (now sister) from social media shared these words with me as I started my writing journey. I started writing a blog in 2016, and only by God’s grace, has continued, consistently, to the present. As I […]
A Christmas Miracle
A few weeks ago, I had an appointment scheduled with a client and due to illness, we ended up needing to cancel it. Fast forward to this week when the calendar worked and we decided to try to tackle the situation once more. It had been a long journey for the client and I wanted […]
