Find the sunsets, even on the darkest days…
Sat out on the porch this morning surveying my overgrown yard and looking at goats for sale on the internet. Wasn’t hungry for breakfast but my yard was full of songbirds singing for their breakfasts. The bird symphony was staccatoed with the harsh music of the neighborhood hawk calling his mate. As I perched and…

Don’t waste a moment on mosquito wings…
Father Sky stuck to his regular pastel sky sketches this morning, summer blue sky, fluffy white clouds, bright yellow sunshine. I love watching him sketch the clouds and run the colors together.

Gather your treasures in God’s mason jar…
Revised and rewritten from my archives… Today was a beautiful blue sky day. Warm sunshine and time for much porch pondering before I retreated inside to pack for a visit to the grandchildren. They’ve had so many adventures this summer. I can’t wait to hear about all Handley’s birthday travels with her mama and the…

Face the things that cloud your life with God and a smile…
Bluest of blue skies this morning, clouds the colors of blinding white snow and ripe grape clusters, resting in the beautiful azure bowl of the sky, like a crystal jar of colored cotton balls sitting on an antique oak mirrored dresser. Seems Father Sky can’t decide if it’s going to storm or the heavens just…
