The Connection

My life is about to change. Disconnection is about to enter my life for approximately 8 days. We are changing our internet service provider and there will be a gap in service. Oh my, I wonder how I will survive?

I feel the need to be connected. I am told that we need telephone jacks in order to be wired correctly. We have two jacks, but they are not working at all. So, the technician will have to be paid to come and connect it. One wrong tug, move, or incorrect wiring would destroy the connection or keep it from happening! It will need to be done correctly, or the connection will not take place. Continue reading The Connection →

~We looked outside to see if a transformer had blown.
It was good.
~The breeze was a bit strong, so maybe a large tree limb
had fallen. Nope, no limbs. Continue reading THUMP!!!! →

Face to Face with the Younger Me

I like the CCM group, For King and Country so much. They have a song which I like for a lot of reasons…but “Fix My Eyes” is such a good message to my younger self.

I turned 54 the other day. This was the age in which my dad died of a sudden heart attack. A rather sobering thought..and he seemed so young to me then. It seems really young to me now.

My body tells me that this ‘ole earth suit has aged..but the brain doesn’t feel the same.

But with age there has come some wisdom. Wisdom on what is important in life, and wisdom to know that I myself am not wise at all, that all I am is because of Jesus Christ.

So I decided to come “face to face with the younger me.” Continue reading Face to Face with the Younger Me →
