  Keeping hope alive were the words that I pondered….many years ago when we were walking through some very difficult times as parents.   Ughh..how to do this? How to even begin… especially when I felt like something the truck ran over. What about you? Where have you, in the last year or more, wondered…

photot credit: lucas-peng-382189 God Is Good All The Time…all the time He is good.  Sometimes the path and sky can look inviting but then it gets dusty, the throat starts to feel a bit parched and the sun hides behind a cloud. What appeared to be so perfect turns out to be a bit much.…

When I was a child… I decided that I would not expect anything. At the time, I felt that if I expected something I would be setting myself up for disappointments. Little did I know that this mentality would spill over into my spiritual life. Going at this rate I eventually found myself in a…

Life has a bit of an ebb and flow to it. All be it many times more “ebb” and less “flow.” Today I’ve been informed that our winter sport wind up, curling, has been cancelled. This is due to the COVID-19 which has been showing up in Canada in the last week more and more.…

  Way back I had a hunch as you probably did that this was all connected. This thing we call life. I wasn’t born yesterday and neither were you. We’ve experienced the pain of heartbreak, loss, health issues, rejection. It’s not easy. You might remember as a youth or even later in life looking at people…
