...a few thoughts on peonies...
This bloomed today. Motherās Day 2026. The delicate beauty stopped me in my tracks as I walked out the door. I had to step off the sidewalk into the mulched area and take a minute to breathe in the fragranceā¦and it was beautiful! Itās been a long time coming, this sweet blooming peony. It starts out as quite a rootā not becoming to the eye at all. Sits underground for a good long while. Then itā¦

Saying Grace
I sat on the deck this afternoon after church with a plate of leftovers. I started to eat, and then remembered to thank God, to āsay graceā for the meal. Sometimes āsaying graceā is perfunctory. Sometimes itās seen as a duty. Todayā it just flowed out of what was flowing in. And out came the poem between bites of spaghetti. Blessings to you and yours this day! āSaying Graceā¦ā For the freshā¦

reminders of hope
This sweet little bouquet of buds was a gentle reminder of hope for me today. I didnāt expect to see it on the old, neglected apple tree that has appeared lifeless since well before last Winter. As you can see, these tree branches have seen better days. But these branches are from the same tree with the bud bouquet and the photo is taken on the same day that I took the first photo. What is seenā¦
Before they come
The table is set, thereās a place for each one The oven is full and the preps are all done Thereās a quiet here now, but it soon will be gone As the house fills with family, from near and from far Oh Lord in this moment, I pray that weād see Your grace, your redemption on this ThanksGiving For who do we thank for the gifts big and small? Oh God you have Given, youāve given it ALL! Help usā¦
done
Sometimes ādoneā means ātoastā, fini, over it, give up, surrender. Sometimes ādoneā means finished, completed, accomplished. Sometimes it might mean both. For me anyway. Maybe sometimes God waits for me to say,āIām done. I canāt. Itās too big. I release it to you. And thenā¦(sometimes only thenā¦) He steps in to complete the work He had begunā¦and then the beautiful work is truly done, fini,ā¦

the road
Iāve heard of āthe road less traveledā Iāve walked it a mile or two Iāve seen my own road unravel Horizon so not blue but oh the grace thatās met me On this unchartered course My Savior never leaves me Hope overrides remorse For there have been such blessings some in disguise, some clearly seenā¦.. I know that He is with me- what peace that brings to me Peace comes amidst theā¦

...a few thoughts on forgiveness...
āTo forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you.ā ~ Lewis Smedes Question: Seriously? Even when the offense is so deep and horrific and impactful? Thought: Forgiveness is only necessary when there has been an offense. Sometimes that offense has been incredibly great. Question: But doesnāt forgiveness mean youāre making light of what is done? Youāre allowing theā¦

amen.
Thereās a stretch of trees between where I live and where I used to live. If youāre driving in the late afternoon, early evening, youāll see a beautiful show of shadowsā darkness and light all over the field. Itās such a visual for me of light shining through the dark. The silhouettes of the trees only add to the beauty of this scene, and they can even make the light seem brighter when comparedā¦

a hallelujah
So a few days ago I told my husband I was tired of being brave. Yep. Tired of it. I wanted a nap, a respite, and chocolate. I wanted to yell a bit too. And cry. And maybe even tantrum. I did eat chocolate. And I drove pretty fast with the windows down. And I lifted my voice and sang pretty loud and didnāt care who heard. And the cool thing is, I know who heard. He always does. And He tells usā¦

Southern Snow
The winter is coming to a close. Itās the first day of March, and boots gave way to sandals today. Itās been unseasonably warm in North Carolina and the warmth is slowly melting away any hopes I have had of a good long snow this winter. I always love a good snow. It white washes the world a bit and helps things come to a halt around here. As a teacher, well, I so look forward to having anā¦

Bend
āA bruised reed He will not breakā Oh but a bruised reed will bend And when the waters rush and the earth gives wayĀ Lord let your mercy move and mend Move like water in shallow shores Where the current ebbs and flows May the woundedness and desperate need Be mended in this reed I know My knees they bend My heart does break I know that only You can save!

what remains
When realities blow chaff in the wind When real life burns dross away When the depths of grief are surfacing oh God help us seek your face When the fire burns so deep within And fear rises to the heights Oh God let your Word ring loud and clear You are with us in darkest of nights When the Voids within are hollow coves Fill us with your Words of Life You can use the heights and lows Toā¦

Enough
I love the cover of the journal I have right now. It says āGratitude turns what we have into enough.ā Yep. And Iām not talking just about stuff, material things. Nope, itās about so much more than that. Am thinking gratitude does change things in big ways. The cool thing is that oftentimes it doesnāt take big steps to make big changes. Nope. It just takes little noticings (my new word) ālittleā¦
