Many Stories of Faith
Tonight I went to the Stations of the Cross at the church. When I got back home, I watched part of the docuseries “Jonathan and Jesus”. It was about Jonathan Roumie who plays Jesus in “The Chosen”. The show followed him during his break between seasons 3 and 4. He travelled to Rome where he […]
Intense Forgiveness
Today I heard an incredible story about forgiveness told by Jeanne Bishop. Many years ago, right before Easter, she saw her sister and husband who shared the good news that they were expecting their first child. Sadly, the couple went home to an intruder in the house who killed them all. A while later, they […]
Laughing With Children
Today I went over to a friend’s house while she was taking care of her 2 grandchildren. They are ages 2 1/2 and 1 years old. I had met them before, but the last time the younger one was crawling. Now he was walking and very proud of it. His face just beamed as he […]
A Slow Start
I had a hard time waking up this morning. But, I had no commitments, so I didn’t worry too much about it. I would wake up, then go back to sleep. When I woke back up again it was an hour later. This actually happened a couple of times. I figured I must have needed […]
Always Caring
This morning I brought Communion to the woman I have been visiting on Monday mornings. I learned today that she used to be a nurse. When she talks to me, it’s always about her distant past, when she was young and helping to care for the household and her younger siblings. She told me today […]
All the Weather
My son and his fiancee went to a wedding over the weekend. I told them I would pick them up from the airport tonight. The weather has been unsettled, so I checked the hourly forecast and radar. It showed there would be some rain showers probably on the way back. Still, I knew that may […]
Still Didn’t Understand
My sister and I have been watching The Chosen, getting caught up on Season 4. It was pretty somber, and neither of us were ready to watch it before. My heart ached, but I thought the messages were very well done with empathy and kindness. We unknowingly finished it just in time for episodes 1 […]
Climbing Rocks
My grandchildren are on school break this week and the weather has been amazing, so I wanted to take them out and about. Today we went to one of the nearby National parks. First we went into the visitor’s center and enjoyed the interactive displays that showed the history of the area and the wildlife […]
Amazing Reconnection
Today I was going through some of my dad’s military paperwork that he kept when my sister came upstairs and looked through some of them as well. She said she used to work with a woman who happened to be the daughter of a man who worked under our father. She asked if I had […]
Go Left
A friend of mine continues to struggle through a divorce and move. I went to help her get some final things out of her house today. Another friend was there as well. We loaded up all our vehicles and headed over to the new place. When we were there, I saw her friend taping a […]
