Spirit in Your Heart
Today I read a quote from St. Anthony Zaccaria. It is his feast day in the church. He was a very spiritual man who incited a movement to understand the Gospel simply and clearly. Pope Benedict XVI, in a preface written about Saint Anthony wrote he was, “an authentic man of God… a true leader, […]
Fun Family Fourth
This afternoon we got together with much of the family for lunch. I don’t have a grill, but my son does, so he cooked up some burgers and hot dogs and brought them over to add to the rest of the food that everyone prepared. My daughter in law made a beautiful and delicious cake. […]
Wonderful Childhood
My sister, my mom and I were talking about our childhood today. My sister and I reminisced about going outside to play all the time. Most of the time we didn’t have a specific time or purpose, we would just go outside and play with whoever was there. And the other kids did the same […]
Baby Hawk
We have been keeping a close eye on the hawk’s nest in the tallest pine tree in our yard, but are unable to see directly into the nest. They have it tucked away and hidden pretty well. The other day, I talked with one of the neighbors who said she had a clear view of […]
Morning Rosary
I have a fairly regular prayer routine. However, to me sometimes that can become monotonous or rote. I recently got the “Hallow” app that has lots of prayer options. So I started this morning with a scriptural rosary. It was led by Jonathan Roumie who plays Jesus in “The Chosen”. He speaks with a lot […]
Rain Tranquility
This afternoon we finally got a nice thunderstorm. The first ones of the season are always a little bit of a surprise. It lightninged and thundered and rained. After dinner when it quieted down, my mom and I decided to go for a walk. Just as I was about to bring her walker down the […]
Impromptu is Best
Yesterday my mom and I hoped to go to a concert, but my mom’s back was hurting so much, we weren’t able to. Today she had an appointment first thing this morning, then the rest of the day was free. Thankfully, she was feeling much better and even had some energy after her appointment. So, […]
That Shoulder
My mom woke up this morning with terrible backache. After a little investigating, I found out it was her upper back in her shoulder blade, not in the usual spot on her lower back. It was so bad that it hurt her to walk. We got after it right away with Tylenol, lidocaine patch, and […]
Prolove
I saw this today and thought it was the only “opinion” I have seen this far that makes sense. Just because I feel like no one has said it…. To the woman who is pro-life, You are loved beyond measure To the woman who is pro-choice, You are loved beyond measure. To the woman who […]
Called for Freedom
There were a couple of lines in the scripture reading this morning that really stood out to me. “For you were called for freedom, brothers and sisters. But do not use this freedom as an opportunity for the flesh; rather, serve one another through love. For the whole law is fulfilled in one statement, namely, […]
