Good morning... As I walked to the beach hoping for a photo shoot with the rising sun, I thought, "It's so dark and there are so many thick clouds, I am not sure I will be able to see the sun rise on this day." As the first sliver of the sun peaked through the horizon, [...]
Good morning... Waking this morning at 3:24 am, I google "When is sunrise in Palm Beach, Florida?" The answer is "6:40 am." For three delightful hours, I will enjoy silence and solitude with God on this Sabbath morn before I walk out to the sand and do a photo shoot on my phone with the rising sun. Why [...]

Good morning... After a stormy night a few weeks back, I went into our back yard to survey the debris, the fallen limbs, the messy leaves. What caught my attention was a huge spider web delicately hanging mid-air. I walked over to observe more closely the spider constructing her web. Active. Intricate. Diligently working.

Good morning... On Veteran's Day each year, I enjoy browsing through videos created to honor the men and women who have served in our United States Armed Forces.

Good morning... "Good morning Sue," she wrote last week. "I want to highly recommend this book by Scott Sauls, The Gentle Answer. He writes: 'Jesus and Christianity do not discriminate between good people and bad people. Instead, Jesus and Christianity discriminate between humble people and proud people. God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble (James [...]
Good morning... On November 5th, Lauren Daigle, one of my favorite artists, released a new recording of her soulful song, "You Say." Reminding us all that we are loved, we are strong, and we are held, might this music video be our morning prayer? ...our many-ness becomes one-ness—Christ doesn’t become fragmented in us.

Good morning... Sipping our morning coffee, we taste our half and half. Half sad. Half happy. Half mad. Half relieved. Half scared. Half excited. Only our Three-in-One God can embrace each half and make us whole. Now may the Lord Jesus Christ and our Father God, who loved us and in his wonderful grace gave us eternal comfort [...]
Good morning... Every day I love the dog calendar my dear friend gifted me. I adore the cute photo from Election Day 2020, but even more I love the Will Rogers quote: "I love a dog.
