Blog postFree.
This is my word for this year. And this verse goes along with it:
At last we have freedom, for Christ has set us free! We must always cherish this truth[a] and firmly refuse to go back into the bondage of our past. – Galatians 5:1 (The Passion Translation)
And this song – I heard it on Heartland a while back and it stuck with me:
I love how the verse talks about freedom coming from Christ – like if we always take it back to Him, just Him, just His me -
Blog postI’ve just been doing life, ya know? There seem to be seasons of blogging and seasons of silence. But I always miss the blogging and I always come back to it. There’s been so much this year, but I think I say that every year Instead of recapping, I’ll just start from here and look ahead. Because I’ve realized it’s no good to keep your heart focused on what was. Gotta keep moving on. I like to focus on one word every year, like a theme that overarches everything. I pray and I ask for the wo

Blog postA dream come true…
And the perfect time to live the dream…
With all the resources saved up…
And we’re off
2019 will be a banner year for Team Sklar.
20 years of marriage + 1 grade twelve graduate + 1 grade eight graduate = major milestones to celebrate!
We’ve been saving our Aeroplan miles and our extra dollars earned for just such an occasion.
The timing worked for all of us, so we narrowed down the search for a place that could be fun -

Blog postIt was time to finish the trail
In one shot – almost 60 kms to go…
We decided to challenge ourselves, see if we could do it, giving each other allowance to stop if needed while the other continued. We both knew I’d keep going until I fell off my bike – I’m a little stubborn sometimes
It was the first bike ride of the season, and it wasn’t a particularly smart idea to start with a 60km haul, and there are always going to be so many reasons NOT to try something, and some -
Blog postIt was 3 weeks after Walk #2 when we finally had time for another Rail Trail walk. Much happened in those 3 weeks, including Elijah’s 14th birthday and a trip to Sudbury to sell our rental house. We were happy to hit the trails again and see where they would take us.
Early into this walk something became very clear… as Josh dropped me off on the side of Highway 52 and I walked off into the unknown… seeing no one else in sight for quite some time… and much rustling in the forest on eit -
Blog postI don’t know what the day will bring.
I don’t know what the month will bring.
I don’t know what the year will bring.
And most days now, that’s OK.
You’d be so grown up by now, Caleb.
You’d be learning to drive.
You’d be halfway through high school.
If you were anything like your brothers you’d be playing at least one sport.
Maybe you’d be dating?
You’d have seen at least a few places in the world.
You’d have met s -
Blog postTwo days after Walk #1 we set out on the second portion of the Rail Trail walk.
Here’s the brochure that led to the idea of a very long walk
My hope is that as I write about it and share it with you, it may encourage and inspire you too…
Josh dropped me off at the Dundas Valley Conservation Area parking lot, and a 5-minute walk brought me back to the Sulfur Springs railroad station – aka Dundas Valley Trail Centre.
A replica of a Victorian train station,& -
Blog postI’ve been looking for a challenge to get myself moving… to just get started… point me in a direction… head towards a destination! And accomplish something along the way. See what happens along the way. Discover new sights along the way.
My hope is that as I write about it and share it with you, it may encourage and inspire you too…
In my search I found many local trails for biking and walking (my two favourite exercises ) and I chose to start with walking. One trail grabbed my -
Blog postThis photo shows most of my Bibles through the years…
The orange-covered Bible is my childhood Bible (my mum made the cover for me ) – it’s one of those white, KJV, red-letter Bibles that were standard in the 1980s. I remember carrying it to church holding the green floral handles, tucking word treasures into the pockets on the inside of the cover. The red Bible was mine for the teen years – a standard Bible for the 1990s. It was NIV(!) which was modern at the time It came with me to yout -
Blog postYou can get stuck looking at things a certain way.
And you can look at things for so long, with a perspective that may or may not be right, that eventually it becomes truth.
Might just be THE truth. Might just be YOUR truth.
There’s a difference. A big difference.
One will cause unity. The other will cause conflict.
And in a world where truth is relative, a personal choice, unique for each individual – it gets harder to put things in perspective.
