What Do You Want ?

Posted on January 5, 2023January 5, 2023 by adraganjac64

This morning, I woke up, and I said, “Lord!  I really want to lose weight.  I’m overweight and I have such a hard time with my eating habits.  Will you please help me?” God: “What do you want?” Me: “You know.  I want to be thinner.  I want my clothes to look and feel better. …

We shall be changed.

Hello beloved,              It’s been a minute.  I hope this finds you all trusting.  My initial thought is to say, I hope this finds you all “well.”   But I’m not even sure what that means anymore.  Does “well” mean…Not sick, happy.  Does it mean all your dreams are coming true and everything’s “comin’ up roses”? …

Watching and Waiting

Hello Beloved,                 My, oh my, oh my!  Yesterday was a doozy!  I think I’m cruising along, resting in God, everything is cool and joyous!  Then the Lord says, ok, let’s go deeper.  And in one day, I feel like I’ve forgotten everything I’ve every known of our Lord.  I doubt.  I don’t look to…

Hello, beautiful family.             One of my favorite musician/singer/songwriters is Rich Mullins.  He wrote “Our God is an Awesome God” and so many other great songs about Jesus and our lives in God.   Rich died in a car crash when he was still pretty young.  After his death, a couple of books were written about…

Hurricanes and Tornado warnings

Posted on November 10, 2022November 10, 2022 by adraganjac64

Hello beloved,             As I type, the winds of a minor hurricane are whipping around our home, sheets of rain pelting the sides.  You get used to these things when you live in Florida.  At 6 am I got an automated call from Flagler County Emergency Services telling us that there was a tornado warning…

Record Keeper

Posted on November 4, 2022November 4, 2022 by adraganjac64

Hello my family.              I am a record keeper.  This is a confession.  I tend to keep records of wrongs.  If someone is unkind to me, or just in a bad mood and snippy to me, I put an imaginary chalk mark in my imaginary column.  That’s a point for me in the “Who’s Better…

Hello beautiful family,             I was talking to a dear friend this morning, and we started discussing something wonderful that I want to share with all of you.  We spoke of the faithfulness of God, and how we can dwell in God’s rest.  Then he told me something so wonderful regarding Joshua and Jesus: At…

Hello Family,                 I have been listening to a wonderful song lately.  It’s called “Jireh” by Elevation Worship and Maverick City.   I often think of the first couple of lines to that song. I’ll never be more loved than I am right nowWasn’t holding You upSo there’s nothing I can do to let You down…

Hello, dear sisters and brothers, dear to my heart. It’s been a minute.  I have been thinking about this post for a while, and I haven’t quite gotten my lasso around it.  So, I thought I would just start typing and see what happens. I was sitting on the beach this past Saturday morning, and…

That Where I am….

Posted on October 12, 2022October 12, 2022 by adraganjac64

Hello glorious family! When I was young, I thought that when I died, I would go to a great mansion in the sky.  It would be my very own mansion with lots of rooms, and probably an in-ground pool, and a giant backyard full of trees, and all the other amenities that I could want.  …
