Future Love
As I was listening to the radio today, I heard a beautiful statement, “God doesn’t love your future self more than your current self.” In other words, God loves us individually, perfectly, at all times, in all circumstances of life. That gave me comfort and hope. I Found God today reminded that He loves me […]
God Picked Reading
This afternoon as my mom and I were sitting at the table, I picked up the friendship book that was there. I told her I would just open it and read whatever page I landed upon. Our caregiver noted that she loved to do that and let God choose what she should read. I opened […]
She Did Remember
This is typically celebration season in our household. During about a 2 week period is my parents’ anniversary and both of their birthdays. My mom’s is coming up in a couple of days and everyone has been making a big deal about it. This morning when she got up, she thought we were going to […]
Shopping Online
There are several things that I have been wanting/needing to get to help make things a little easier for my mom. I shopped several stores here in the city with no luck. Finally, I gave in and shopped online. It was a long, tedious process, but I hopefully found what I was looking for. Even […]
Like a Ballerina
Today we read yesterday’s reflection in “Jesus Calling”. It described a beautiful image of a ballerina spinning around and around. In order to keep her balanced, she must have a focal point. I suppose the same is true for other dancers and ice skaters as well. This concept tied in with our faith life. In […]
Steadfast in Faith
I listened to a podcast today that talked about how to resist the devil. First and foremost was to remain steadfast in faith. 1Peter 1:6-7 was quoted, “In this you rejoice, although now for a little while you may have to suffer through various trials, so that the genuineness of your faith, more precious than gold […]
Wait or Abide
I was happy to meet with my prayer group tonight. We talk about scripture and life and prayer for each other’s needs and intercessions. I always leave appreciating the wisdom, faith, and friendship of the group. Tonight one of the ladies talked about the difference between waiting and abiding. Waiting gives the visual image of […]
New Haircut
It was already time for my mom to get a haircut. Her hairstylist said she was busy the next couple weeks and not sure when she would be able to make it over. She called this afternoon and said she was available. My mom was just finishing her nap, but didn’t want to get up. […]
New Fridge
Our old refrigerator has been slowly getting noisier. It has actually been keeping us awake during the night. One of the shelves broke and the door drops down a bit with a clunk when it is opened. Almost a year ago, my mom and I looked at refrigerators online at their favorite appliance store. She […]
New Christians
Today at Mass, two men were fully initiated into the Catholic Church. One was a young adult who was an exchange student from Brazil. During his time here, he went to church with his host family. He was intrigued and soon converted. He will return back to his home as a new Christian. The other […]
