When we don't get what we deserve
That's a real good thing, a real good thing

That's a real good thing, a real good thing

My best friend has three children who have become our nephew and nieces. We love them. Just by happenstance we've had more one-on-one time with the boy, so this weekend was the chance to just hang out with the girls. ...continue reading "Lent 2016: February 26, Day 17 -Little Girls"

Well, I got behind the eight ball today and ran out of time. It's gonna be a short post!

I set today aside to push to get caught up and when I wasn't able to, I felt pretty frustrated and a little overwhelmed.

My husband came home, listen to me complain and then he hugged me and let me know that everything was going to be alright. ...continue reading "Lent 2016: February 25, Day 16 -Husband Hugs"

There are so many things in the world one could get riled up about, so many injustices. One could spend every minute of every day outraged about very legitimate causes. You have to pick your battles or you'll go crazy...

Case in point, for some reason, I have become genuinely outraged at the Apple vs. FBI issue regarding the iPhone owed by the terrorist who shot up San Bernadino, Ca. ...continue reading "Lent 2016: February 24, Day 15 -Apple’s New Time Machine"

It looks like it will be one more day of random Lent blogging before I return to the sub-topic of forgiveness.

Tuesdays are one of our longer days, so often times we get a lot less of our normal routine done.

One interesting thing to note, we have joined the millennial trend of cord cutting. We shut off our satellite tv service and now we only have Netflix and whatever streaming services we decide to use. ...continue reading "Lent 2016: February 23, Day 14 -Cord Cutters"

Things have been a bit heavy around the blog lately, so I thought I take a little break tonight and then continue with the other half of the forgiveness equation soon.

For tonight, I am amazed by the depth of God's love for me ...continue reading "Lent 2016: February 22, Day 13 -Palette Cleanser"

In recent posts, I've been exploring the Lord's Prayer as a template for daily prayer. I've procrastinating on today's topic because I feel very humble to even try to comment on the topic, forgiveness. ...continue reading "Lent 2016: February 21, Day 12 -Foundational Forgiveness"

Published on 1 Comment on Lent 2016: February 20, Day 11 -Daily Bread

In the last few posts, I've been describing how I use the Lord's Prayer as a template for my daily prayer. So far I've talked about reaching out to my Heavenly Father, acknowledging Him by His names, acknowledging His holiness and perfection, and asking that His will be done. Now we get to ask for the stuff that probably brought us to our knees in the first place... 🙂
