Finding Barley

Today I needed to get some shopping done for my sister to help her get some meals prepared. It is always hard going to different stores, but since I have stayed with her for the past couple of weeks as her broken leg continues to heal, I have been getting to know where to find […]

God’s Care

My dad called early this morning with the great news that he was being released from the hospital. When my mom and I arrived, we passed by the chapel. My mom had not been there before, so we went in and spent a few minutes. We included intercessions to St. Therese of Lisieux, as it […]

Affirming and Encouraging

Today I watched the final day of the coverage of Pope Francis in our country. I was very moved seeing him meet with some inmates in a prison. He told them that the path of life makes us dirty. He said that Jesus does not ask what we have done in the past, but wants to cleanse […]

Healed Thumb

My dad has been wearing a splint on his broken thumb for weeks. It kept his thumb straight and he laughed about his permanent “thumb’s up”. Of course, it has been tedious trying to do things with only 1 working thumb – and that one being his left one when he is right-handed. But he […]

Clarity and Wisdom

Last weekend, my dad started having issues with his heart. As he was monitoring his blood pressure, the pulse indicator showed an irregular heartbeat. He continued to check his pulse and it would go up to the 80’s then down to the 40’s, then back up again. My brother took him to the doctor on […]

Improvement in Craziness

Yesterday afternoon I made it back to my home state safe and sound after a wonderful trip to spend time with family and meet my new grand daughter. My sister picked me up at the airport and I called my mom from her house. The adventures there just seem to go on and on. My […]

The Newest Teacher

A young woman I know graduated from college a few years ago and has wanted to be a teacher. She has been working at a pre-school and the pictures I see of her with the kids there are precious. I feel she is truly gifted to work with them. The test required for teachers in […]

Invitation to Serve

A while ago, the church had a ministry fair of sorts. Some of the ministries were represented by tables of information and sign up sheets. I restrained myself from the youth ministry and religious education section because I knew the commitment would be more than I can give at this time. I came across the […]

Patience and Computers

My dad has some very old computers that have files, pictures, and information on them. He has been wondering how he would be able to get the information off and into an updated computer format. My brother was at the house and spent most of yesterday and today working on the challenge. He is a computer programmer, […]
