My heart was heavy today – full of sorrow – a heaviness was descending on me – so – I did the only thing that I could do – I went to my ‘quiet place’ and shared it all with the One Who has promised – not only to walk with me through these times – but…
‘The Fog Will Lift’
One thing I enjoy about early mornings at this time of year is the freshness in the air – bringing with it that sense of the beginning of a new season. The other morning really typified an Autumn morning for me – the thickened mist of the past few mornings – creating a fog that almost obliterated the…
‘Pruning -Timing Matters’
Looking out at the garden this morning I was conscious that so many of the plants are beginning to show signs of decay – tidying up needs doing – and the all important job of pruning may soon need to be tackled. As I pondered about the process of pruning I recalled basic information from years…
‘First Day’
Over this past week there have been so many ‘posts’ on social media about ‘first days’ – babies first day at nursery – young childrens first day at ‘proper school’ – young teens first day at secondary school – first days at college – university – etc. One grandson of ours – who is going…
‘Your Promise Still Stands’
I write this – on the day we celebrate our 53rd Wedding Anniversary – in thankfulness to my husband – who’s promise still stands today – after all these years. Thank you for standing with me – through thick and thin – and continuing to make true your promises to me – I’ve loved my life with you…

Congratulations are in order this week for many of our young people as they celebrate their exam success -I myself send congratulations – all the best for the future – and for their dreams to be realised. Many have worked hard and long and so deserve the results that they have gained – however – not…
‘Focus On The Good’
In no way do I intend to get into any political debate – but recently I was struck by the amount of ‘possible negative outcome’ that was spoken – in order to re-enforce the speakers own political view – instead of being willing to see where’ possible positive outcomes’ may occur. Of course we’re used to…
‘Take Time Out’
My blog is early this week – as I’m going to be taking ‘time out’ – we’re visiting one of my brothers – and then on to spend time with old friends. There is always a lot on social media at this time of year – about friends and families taking time out – it’s…
‘In The Cool Of The Morning’
During this time of extremely hot weather I’m enjoying the cool of the early morning – the suns rays – gentle and warm – breezes smoothly gliding past – the scent of roses in the air – the twitter of birdsong all around. The wonder of communicating with my creator – my Father –…
