It’s great to tell you what I love. But how do I show it? Spending time with… Continue reading Love God … Love Others

Not Alone
Our world is experiencing isolation. The disciples also experienced isolation after the Resurrection, along with confusion, fear, and doubt. Even before the cross, Jesus knew this would happen; and He promised peace, power, and especially His presence. Knowing those moments were coming, Jesus emphasized that they would never be alone. But still, they experienced the… Continue reading Not Alone

Lockdown. Hiding. Alone. Afraid. Isolated. Fear. Quiet. Rest. Alone. Solitude. Peace. Focus. These words may describe you. Some certainly describe me. We most likely experience each one at some point in our lives. During our current time of isolation, many welcome the less stressful environments, and many are afraid of being alone for an extended… Continue reading Creative Connections
Colors of the Cross
Welcome to Faith Connections Friday! Celebrate Easter with me as we imagine what may have been going through the disciples’ minds. Everything seems to be going smoothly.

Look for the Masterpiece
Have you ever noticed the variety of colors combined to form a thing of beauty? A rainbow, a stained glass window, a bouquet, a garden of spring flowers, the mountains in the fall, a sunrise, a sunset, a mixed fruit salad, even a roll of life savers.

Seize the Day!
Welcome to Connections2Excellence! Have an extraordinary day! When I was growing up, my mother would wake us up with her melodious singing. “Good morning! Time to rise and shine! Wake up!” (Don’t you love it when someone does that for you?—Not!) Of course, we would roll over, pull the covers over our heads, and try… Continue reading Seize the Day!
Focused Time
Welcome to Connections2Excellence! I appreciate you so much and thank you for connecting today! This past week was amazing! I started back to school—again. When school starts, I get so excited about learning something new. (Actually, I am like a child eager for the first day of school.)

Living for Each Today
Writing (for me) in any form is therapy. I love journaling because I don’t have to care about correct grammar, punctuation, or making any sense whatsoever. It’s simply personal random thoughts, however they come into my silly little brain. Journaling has been an enjoyable, therapeutic habit for decades (though entries over the past few years… Continue reading Living for Each Today
