Restricted Vision, Unburdened Sight
Sometimes the things you can't see help you see more clearly!
I mentioned going to lunch with my “very old friend“ yesterday. As we sat there, a number of people came in and out of the restaurant that I knew. But for the most part, we were surrounded by strangers that were unknown. We sat there catching up for probably two and a half hours. We … Continue reading Seeing God’s Table in a Different Light
What does your day and night look like? Can you tell them apart? Since I’ve been trying to get my schedule realigned from the past couple of years of just winging it, sometimes it is hard for me to see where the day ends and the night begins. To say my sleep schedule is out … Continue reading From the Light of Day to the Dark of Night
Do you have any idea how much water you can lose if you have a faucet that is dripping or a leaky toilet? It might actually amaze you. Last summer my water bill went up considerably from one month to the next, very considerably. I knew that I had not used a lot of extra … Continue reading Keep Your Eye on the Details
Good grief! Tax documents are coming in. That is actually not a really big deal for me, but it is the act of getting them done and in the mail that stresses me out a little bit. I don’t know why. It probably shouldn’t, because my taxes are very simple. I can use a 1040 … Continue reading Until I See “Forever and Ever…Amen!”

Do you have a home Church that you are part of? Our eternal home is not this world, so having a church community that we can call home here is so important. Being part of a Bible believing church that is filled with those that love and serve Christ is such an important aspect of … Continue reading Getting a Glimpse of Family
A bitter sweet memory popped up on my phone this morning. It was a blurry picture of a little girl being trailed by a dog. When we first moved to the little white house with the black shutters, there was a neighborhood dog that adopted us. The dog actually belonged to a family that lived a … Continue reading His Eye is Not Only on the Sparrow
Good grief Gracie! This is one crazy world we are living in! There does not seem to be a place to hide from the insanity. Truth seems like an extremely rare commodity. How did it change so much in, just, the past fifty-plus years? Fifty-plus years ago I was running around the mountainsides, swinging out over the ravine on … Continue reading Looking Toward My Place of Refuge
I was checking in with a friend today about how I could pray for them in the coming year. They said something that I didn’t get all the way the first time. It was the key to their message for me. Then as I looked at it again, I got it. They said, "I have … Continue reading What Does Your Fruit Look Like?
One of the most discouraging things about my vision difficulties is the loss of my driving privileges. I'm not whining, promise! There are just work-arounds that sometimes need to be done for normal, everyday things. Something I really miss is being able to jump in the car and run to the store. Within the past … Continue reading Sometimes Broken Eggs Look Beautiful
