Some days the lift is really hard. Some days you feel really weak.
Today is some day.
I have learned that if I show up tomorrow, I will feel stronger than today. #Discipline2025

The Pastor Next Door
Good morning! May you not despise the day of small things. #Discipline2025 

For a while I have been wrestling with what to write about. I have been wondering if I should just focus on keeping up with the brief daily devotionals or perhaps offering commentary on the news of the day from a pastor’s perspective. As I wandered around the internet, there’s a lot of that going on already. Sure, my “unique” voice would be different, but in so many ways, it feels like I would just be adding to the noise.

I love this little coffee shop in Flushing, MI. It’s called The Station. It is in a renovated service station. The coffee is good, the people are fantastic, and the playlist is always on point.

A five for me. A five for the #OldGal. I have seen fours already for the #YoungPups. Woot!
Good morning! May you find joy in the small things today. #Discipline2025 

Not much better than a game Crisler Arena with good friends!


For those of you who blog long form pieces on micro.blog where do you compose?
So glad I get to exercise at a leisurely pace on Mondays. Monday, for me, is a day to reflect. I am finding that doing so at the gym is best way. #Discipline2025

Feast or famine, I suppose! The #OldGirl scored a 3. And my streak lives.
