Slow and simple living

on 7 October 202020 January 2025 Leave a Comment on Slow and simple living

My focus this week is on simplicity and living a slow life. Maybe it’s the season – the cooler weather of Fall. Or perhaps it’s the sense that the earth is about to go to sleep, in a sense, that makes me want to change my pace as well. I just have this strong desire …

Just be yourself

When life doesn’t seem all that sweet

on 9 September 202020 January 2025 Leave a Comment on When life doesn’t seem all that sweet

The Fall always brings major change in my life. I was born in the fall. Two of my kids were also born in the Fall. I’ve moved several times, again, in the Fall. The past few weeks have been very overwhelming with lots of new things happening so I’m just not ready for anything more. …

Loving one another well

on 30 September 201920 January 2025 Leave a Comment on Loving one another well

Each month, for bible study, I like to focus on a specific topic and read what scripture says about it. For September, I went through a devotional scripture card set by Illustrated Faith called The One Anothers. It’s about loving others the way that Christ loves us. Here are few points that really resonated with …
