Spring (in snippets)

Beautiful sunshine,

wonderful warmth,

beautiful blooms,

singing birds,

playing kids,

walking moms,

mowing dads

spontaneous smiles,

skipping children,

frolicking fillies,

playful pups,

motors revving,

breezes blowing,

blossoms scenting,

raindrops falling,

cleaned (maybe) windows,

neighborhood chatter,

coffee outside,

restless school kids,

excited graduates,

patios in use,

swimming pool sales,

seasonal shopping,

Easter reflecting,

cloudy days,

chilly days,

then once again...welcomed warmer days,

bustling greenhouses,

vacation planning,

lush green grass like a carpet,

nests being built,

baby bunnies,

robin eggs,

seeds germinating,

playgrounds busy,

parks being enjoyed,

umbrellas being used,

tractors pulling planters,

motivated, tired farmers,

summer clothes,

gardens growing,

burgers grilling,

excitement,

newness,

freshness,

hope,

seeing God,

sensing God,

loving God,

loving...

SPRING!

God Stories. What's yours?

I am marveling at God stories. What's yours?? Our daughter has a good friend. Her name is Stephanie. She is creative, talented, bubbly, sensitive and loves Jesus! And she wrote a book. For kids. About God. Called Always Remember . It is different then most kid's books. It has a poetic lilt which is beautiful, but atypical in its cadence. It's wording is unique; yet lovely. It is simple and it is deep. It's premise is pivotal, declaring Truth!

It should be read often as a way to reflect and then to live. The main theme is teaching kids (and adults alike) to... Stop. Ponder. Remember God. To see Him every day in everything. To align daily with who He is. It is beautifully illustrated, with large colorful pictures that engage, teach, enlighten and intrigue. She shared how the book was firs...

There once was a fly....

I am musing on a story that begins like this.... There once was a fly. There once was a fly. It lived in Salt Lake City. More specifically, in Kingsbury Hall on the campus of the University of Utah. Kingsbury Hall is the Performing Arts Center. So that fly had the opportunity to view many productions. Last night, that fly was viewing a televised production that likely millions were watching. As that fly buzzed around, it decided to land on a nice head of white hair. And stay there awhile. Little did he know, that he was sitting on the head of the Vice President of the United States. Little did he know how important the role of Vice President of the United States is. Little did he know how important the upcoming election which was being debated is. Little did he know how much of that country's future was at stake. Little did he know how many prayers were being offered for that man upon whose head he sat... and for those he works with Little did he know of the challenges that...

What I Saw Today

I am musing... ~11/2020 about what I saw today I stepped into the med room this morning. It is a little room off of the west side nurse's station. It was quiet back there. And what I saw made my heart sing with a sense of grateful comfort. There on the counter, someone had left an open Bible. It was sitting there, a testimony that someone had likely taken a moment to grab a deep breath and glean some divine words of encouragement. It was still open, inviting others to also partake from the comfort of it's living pages. Like for so many, this has been a really tough season for all of us. Nurses, aide...
