Friday Faves

This week's Friday Faves centers around relationships. Women especially need to connect with other women. We need to laugh together, to talk, to learn and grow from each other. A recent church ladies fellowship provided one of those special times, to listen, laugh and learn.


Our ladies meeting centered around the Titus 2 concept where the older women share godly wisdom from life experience and bring encouragement to the younger women. We learned every woman is 'an older woman' to someone! This is one of our church's Titus 2 women.  We had a wonderful time listening to her share from God's Word and from her life, how to trust the Lord at all times.


A workplace in-service day brought together ladies who serve and minister in 2 locations for a time of reflection, purpose and direction.  Of course lots of food and fellowship followed.  I'm so thankful to be a part of a workplace filled with godly women with true hearts to minister.  


My youngest son, now a teenage driver!  I'm getting used to being chauffeured around and the changes this age brings.  He has always been a country boy, boots, jeans, t-shirts and caps.  Since starting on the golf team, he is incorporating some shades, khaki shorts and visors.  I think it is just adorable!


Of course we are approaching my favorite time of the year - fall.  Finished up the decorations for my house and am loving being surrounded by vibrant colors, candles and pumpkins.

Sometimes We Score, Sometimes We Block

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play. During the last game, my son scored two goals, they were the only goals of the game. In today's game the team scored eight goals. My son came up afterwards to me and said, "I didn't score today, but I blocked". What a powerful truth those words can hold. In life, sometimes we score, sometimes we block. Sometimes we do great things, we excel, we achieve, we meet our goal - we score! There are also times we see the needs of others, sometimes they are sad or hurting, we block their hits. We look out for them so they can score. We

Word Filled Wednesday – Act Justly

He has shown you, O man, what is good;       And what does the LORD require of you                But to do justly, To love mercy,       And to walk humbly with your God?    Micah 6:8 Sometimes we struggle so hard with the question “What does God want us to do and be?”  This verse is a simple yet powerful reminder of some simple things that God requires of us.  Act and do justly, love mercy and walk humbly before God.  There are numerous opportunities each day to do justly, to do the right thing or to make the right choice.  We love mercy when we show kindness or mercy oftentimes to those who do not deserve it.  Walking humbly before God is acknowledging He alone is God.  He is the I AM – no one else is.  When we give Him the glory He is worthy of, it will humble our heart before Him.  Obeying God doesn’t have to be unattainable or impossible, but can be a joyful, beautiful journey as we go by step and follow Him.
