Follow His Promptings

Another fact people may not know about me: I am habitual, I love a schedule and a plan. This morning my plan was to get the boys off to school and then walk. But aaron missed his bus, so off we went to HCHS. Needless to say, I was miffed and we "discussed" being responsible…

Life’s Journey

So because I am working on being more obedient, when I heard last night, "Go walking", I knew I was supposed to go walking this morning. I woke up, stretched, got dressed and went walking. And I am walking along and thinking about my life (as I often do) and I begin to thank God…

Pursue God

So after quite a hiatus, I set out to walk this morning, anxious to hear from God....it's not that I don't hear from Him at other times, it just seems that these walks/jogs/workouts seem to be the best time for me to be open to hear from Him....and my roller coaster life has been yearning…

My Highwater Pants

So this morning I pull out my walking pants, you know, because it's chilly in the morning now. And when I went to put them on, I shot right through them, I mean they had now become capris!!! So I thought about what to do....and I decided, who cares? I'm just walking. At the end…

Back On Track

After weeks and weeks of neglect, I decided to get back in those flowerbeds again. I looked for my supplies: my gloves, rake, and hand trimmers. I couldn't find any gloves, but I headed out anyway. I decided to tackle the front beds first, because that's the part that is most visible. So I pulled…

The Omelet

This morning I was trying to figure out what I wanted for breakfast. Then a great idea hit me- why don't I make an omelet? Well, I could think of a reason why that wasn't such a great thing to do. The last time I attempted an omelet, it didn't turn out so well. And…

Belief Brings Peace

I'm telling you, my mind knows when school is about to begin. Around this time of year, I awaken with my mind racing with a seemingly never ending "To Do" List...and then I write it down...and then I check tasks off as I complete them lol. Anyway, as things have been changing so much in…

Let It All Go

I did it again!!!! I am convinced that my body is conspiring to keep me in bed! My body was not the only thing that was conspiring against me this morning. My mind was in on it too. Have you ever awakened and a gazillion thoughts hit you at once? Well, that happened to me…

The Screen Porch

I overslept this morning!!! I think my body knows that Fall is coming and is starting to rebel. Anyway, I only argued with myself a couple of seconds and jumped up and called out to Moo so we could get some kind of walking in before work. I explained to him that because it was…

Stop, Look, and Listen

As is my custom on Sunday, I was ironing the boy's clothes this morning, in the quiet of the day. I began to think about this time that I spend of Sunday and how it has become special to me. It is a time when there is no sound, nobody calling my name, or looking…
