Lasting Forever
I read a blog today about a woman named Annie Flack who recently passed away and had made a tremendous impact on a Christian community. She was quoted by something she said every day that can sum up our entire life: Only one life, will soon be past. Only what’s done for Christ will last. […]
Righteousness, Justice, Peace
Tonight in my Bible class, we continued our study of the prophet Isaiah. After the tumultuous week our country has experienced regarding the election, the words from the prophet rang true. Time and time again, Isaiah exhorts the people not to put their trust in men, nations, governments, but to place their trust in God. […]
What Do You See Nurses
I read a story today that really touched my heart, especially as I do the best I can to care for my parents: When an old man died in the geriatric ward of a nursing home in an Australian country town, it was believed that he had nothing left of any value. Later, when the […]
Green Pick-up Truck
When my dad and I were walking to the mailbox today, we came upon our neighbor with her 2 year old grandson. He was adorable. He showed us the pick up truck that he was carrying and playing with. It was green – my favorite color and his daddy’s too. His vocabulary was impressive. As […]

My dad turned on the election results last night for a while and it became apparent that there wasn’t going to be a clear cut winner for the presidency. He got up this morning and tuned in to find out there was really not much change. It was a gorgeous day here and everyone felt […]
Covid Scare
A few days ago, my son told me he was home sick with a fever and congestion. He seems to always get sick around this time of year with the same kind of thing, but to be safe and responsible he got a Covid-19 test that day. I had just been with him 2 days […]
Isaiah Has Foretold
Tonight in my Bible class, we studied parts of the book of Isaiah – the Oracles of the Nations. These passages are the prophet’s warning to all the nations of the know world at that time. He outlines the destruction of each country and the reasons. For the most part, the nations have been prideful. […]
Personal Relics
Today is All Saints Day. At Mass, the priest talked about some of the personal relics he had of the saints in his life. He showed a shirt that belonged to his father who died when he was a young child. He wore the shirt and remembered his father. The garment still hangs in his […]
