Apartment Intervention
I met up with my prayer group and one of the ladies told us that she was moving. We were all surprised. We knew that the circumstances in her current apartment were not very good, but didn’t know she was looking for a new place. Evidently, she really wasn’t, but said that God planned the […]
Strength
Today I was talking with my brother about a friend’s mother who has been through a lot of medical issues and is still going strong, just turning 91 years old. I told him that if I were to get very ill, I don’t know if I would have the ability to make it to the […]
Gates of Hell
Yesterday my brother and I watched an episode of Expedition Unknown. It was about the search for the true location of Bethsaida. During the program, they stopped at an archaeological site at Caesarea Philippi where there was a large grotto with a stone in the middle. The archaeologists found evidence that it was a pagan […]
Medjugorje 45 Years
Today marked the 45th Anniversary of the apparitions of Our Lady of Medjugorje. It is hard to believe that the Virgin Mary has been appearing to the visionaries for such a long time. They were only children in 1981. Now, Our Lady appears to 3 of them daily, and the other 3 once a year. […]
John and Jesus
Today the church celebrates the birth of John the Baptist. I listened to a couple reflections, which gave me some interesting points to ponder. John the Baptist was approximately 6 months older than his cousin, Jesus. His mission was to announce the coming of Jesus Christ who would change everything. John was ushering in the […]
Passing the Cabin Along
A couple of months ago, my siblings and I agreed to sell the family cabin. It was a difficult decision to make but needed to be done. While I was on my road trip, we had a family come look at the place. Then they looked again. And again. Thankfully, my brother was up there […]
Consecrated Virgin
A friend of mine shared her faith story with me today. I knew some of it, but not how the whole thing came about. She was raised in a family that didn’t practice any faith, but also didn’t discourage her and her siblings to explore their options. The town she grew up in was heavily […]
False Alarm
My son and his wife are expecting their first child in a couple of months. The doctors have been concerned as the baby is measuring very small, so they have been doing an ultrasound every week. The other day at the ultrasound, the doctor noticed an irregularity in the cord blood flow. This made my […]
Changing Plans
I had planned on visiting another cousin today, then heading West. However, after watching the weather, I decided to hunker down at my aunt’s house a couple more days. It was a good thing, because the places I would have been going had tornado warnings as well as wind and hail damage. My aunt and […]
Positive Outlook
I continued my travels today and made it to my aunt’s house. We went to dinner with 2 of her sons and got caught up on the family news. I had not seen one of the cousins in many years. He has been through tragedies, family struggles, and health issues. But through it all he […]
