No Strings

This morning a daily reflection that I receive read simply, “God loves us, no strings attached.” It just really touched my heart. I Found God today in a reminder of His unconditional Love.

Praying Against Discrimination

We seem to be living in a world of chaos. When I watch the news, I can get discouraged, angry, or even fearful. Yet, I have an ordinary life to live – things must be done, people need to be taken care of. I do my best to nurture my spirituality and be persistent in […]

Woman in Distress

Today I took my dad to a doctor’s appointment. As we were waiting to be seen, an elderly woman came in who was distressed. She was almost in tears as she tried to explain why she was late. She said she had to walk over from a nearby convenience store as her car broke down. […]

New Aerobic Instructor?

Going Gluten Free

I have had a pretty sensitive stomach for quite a few years now and have realized that gluten plays a big factor in that. Typically, I will go a while staying away from gluten, then eating a little, then a little more, then having an upset stomach. It’s a vicious cycle. I have been doing […]

Attributed to Prayer

A woman who I’ve been praying for had surgery about two weeks ago due to a large mass in her abdomen. I received word that she was doing well and the doctor felt he had removed all of the cancerous tumor. She has been home now for about a week. Today I learned that she […]
