Reflecting

I joined in on an online caregiving group today. I realized it has been 2 months since I had participated. The last time I talked with them, we were in the midst of trying to find a good place with good people who would take good care of my dad. As I caught them up […]

Simple Compliment

My mom joined her online exercise class this morning. One of the ladies complimented my mom on her outfit and said how sharp she looked. This meant so much to my mom that she brought it up at dinner. She wasn’t really thinking that she looked particularly stunning, but she felt good that the woman […]

Favorite Psalm

As we finished the book of Psalms in my Bible class, the last homework question was, “What is your favorite Psalm?” This was a tough question as I found so many of them meaningful. I recognized quite a few from my days in the church choir. Then, I recognized even more in the contemporary Christian […]

Catching Up Double

Today I was surprised and overjoyed to get a phone call from not one, but two long time far away friends. I was able to catch up with both. We listened to each others’ stories and promised to continue to pray for one another. I felt very blessed. I Found God today catching up with […]

Busy Brother

I kept my brother very busy while he was here for a visit. He said to make a list of things that needed to be done, so I did. He did lots of projects for my mom, my dad, and me. We also made daily trips to see my dad. I was glad for another […]

Baby Prayers

When we arrived to visit my dad today, the young woman who greets us at the door couldn’t wait to tell us her good news. She said she just found out she was pregnant. She said her friends there at work will throw a gender reveal party when the baby is old enough to find […]

Safe Travels For All

My brother had intended on making a trip here last month, but then we had the big COVID scare. So he made arrangements to come for a few days this week. He started out his 2 day drive yesterday. He came upon a winter storm, but it was just a little snow. Today, however, there […]

Back to God

Tonight in my Bible class, a student shared a touching story. A family member was pregnant and found that the baby would not live long after birth due to extreme medical problems. She continued the pregnancy until the baby was born. The family had a priest waiting in the wings. When the little one came […]

Bye Jesus

Today in church, a very young couple sat in front of us with 2 little boys. When they arrived, the dad pointed out Jesus on the crucifix to both children, even though the younger was still too young even to walk. Mom and dad had their hands full, but the boys were so cute and […]
