Walking with Jesus as my friend and redeemer for many years, I found Him faithful in every circumstance. Yet, I must confess, sometimes when things get difficult I seem to forget His faithfulness and start worrying. Recently, thinking about this I thought my reaction really depends on where I stand in my relationship to Him. […]
Each Friday I have been posting about an old hymn or gospel song of the church. This week as the news have been so full of the coronavirus and all the disturbing news associated with that, I thought of an old gospel song I have not heard in years. There is so much misinformation out […]
In the continued exploring of our new state, Michigan, this week my husband and I headed to Grand Rapids to check out the Gerald Ford Presidential Museum. It was quite an impressive place. Beautiful grounds and building. Along with a reflecting pond with fountain there were beautiful flowers around the area where President Ford and […]

I’m having waffles in the morning made by my husband. I know that because our little granddaughter is spending the night with us and she always wants Papa’s waffles for breakfast. When we go to bed she gives Papa her “cutie” smile and in her “cutie” voice she asks: Papa, will you fix waffles in […]
As I wrote a few weeks ago, turning 70 was an emotional time for me. I’m “Officially” Old! In sharing with one of my good friends, who recently also turned 70, we came up with some quotes about being old. (Can’t claim these as originals.) You know you are getting old when: You used to […]
Almost two years ago my husband and I moved to Michigan. Situated close to the middle of the “mitten” we have spent the last two years exploring this beautiful state. We have fallen in love with the many small towns around the state that are full of arts and crafts, charming down towns that have […]

My husband and I hold services at two different assisted living facilities and I also give a piano concert twice a month at one of them. Today my husband shared with the residents the story in the Gospel of Luke about the ten lepers that came to Jesus asking to be healed. That story really […]
My youngest granddaughter spent Saturday night with us while Mom and Dad celebrated their anniversary. She always seems to have a hard time going to sleep. I’m not sure if her brain will just not shut down so she can sleep or if she keeps her brain going to avoid sleep. After reading books and […]
She has always been there. My “big” sister, Velma. I call her big, not because she is physically bigger than me. In fact, I think she is a little smaller. But she was my oldest sibling and calling her “big” sister is probably better than calling her my “old” sister. Me and my “big” sister, […]
Last year I shared how my youngest granddaughter uses her imagination and pulls me into her “make-believe” world as she plays with the toy animals my husband gave her a few years ago. Last week she stayed with us as her parents were out of town on work-related trips. I thought we had covered every […]
This week I took a short trip with my youngest daughter flying from Michigan to North Carolina to see a granddaughter graduate from college. What a great time I had not only seeing this granddaughter graduate, but also seeing my oldest daughter and all of her family. For my daughter and I it was a […]
