Just Be Held
I saw a quote this evening that touched my heart. I Found God today reminded to just allow Him to hold me.
Difficulty of Priesthood
A friend of mine shared something he read that gave insight into the difficulties of being a priest. As I read it, I thought about how true these statements are. I was remembering when I worked in a parish and how so many times people expected the pastor to be a certain way or act […]
Christs’ Kingdom
Today is the Feast of Christ the King. I always feel a special sense of joy on this day as it is the name of my previous parish where there are many wonderful memories and still very faithful friends. At Mass today, the priest talked about our mission to share the Kingdom of God here […]
Good Samaritan
My sister and I were excited to go to a craft fair today at a local high school. It was a beautiful day so I didn’t even mind the walk from the crowded parking lot to the building. We had just crossed to the sidewalk to the school entrance when my sister noticed a commotion […]
Continued Birthday
Today may be the last day of my week long birthday celebration and I felt like I received so many gifts. This morning I talked to my aunt who turned 90 on our mutual birthday. I thanked her for the card and beautiful blouse she sent me from her favorite QVC. She told me about […]
Delighted to Give
I saw a quote today from CS Lewis that touched my heart: How God loves us; not because we are lovable but because He is love, not because He needs to receive but He delights to give. I Found God today reminded of God’s generous love.
Preparing the Turkey
I went to the Newman Center today and enjoyed visiting with the young adults. I love to hear their outlook on life in their current state of being. Some have a deep faith, others are searching. Today I was especially enthralled watching one of the young men preparing the turkey for tomorrow’s Friendsgiving dinner. He […]
Long Distance DWTS
I have been watching Dancing With the Stars fairly regularly. Last year when I was helping my daughter in law after surgery, we would watch it together with my grandson too. He moved out of state last month. My daughter in law has been missing the things that they would do together. Tonight as I […]
The Drones
A couple of weeks ago, my sons asked if I was free last night. I said I was. They said that they would pick me up and planned something for my birthday. I had no idea what it was. My siblings and I tried to guess in our weekly Zoom session before they arrived. I […]
New Priest
We recently got a new pastor at our parish. I had seen him before in other churches and appreciated his down to earth attitude, which comes through in his homilies. He gave the parishioners an opportunity to sign up to share a meal with him. My prayer group and I signed up and met him […]
