Extraordinary Ordinary Life
Today’s meditation in the Hallow app and chapter in the book, “The Reed of God” by Caryll Houselander, focused on Mary’s Fiat – or her “yes” to God. She was a young girl of only 14 or so. When the angel came to her, the first thing he did was to comfort her and assure […]
Just Be Held
I saw a quote this evening that touched my heart. I Found God today reminded to just allow Him to hold me.
Beauty of Churches
Today when I went to Mass, I just chose a place to sit randomly. Typically, people seem to sit in the same place every week. We like consistency. But today I only thought about sitting in a place where the sun wouldn’t be shining in my face. After a little while I looked around and […]
Worth Pondering
I was going through social media today as I haven’t really been on too much – which is fine. I came across several thoughtful quotes from TobyMac that made me pause and think. “Please don’t settle for something you know isn’t God’s plan for you just because you’re tired of waiting.” “He calls each and […]
Compassionate Friend
A friend of mine works for a home rental company inspecting their properties to make sure they are being well maintained. He told me a story today about one of the homes he visited.

I listened to a meditation today that really struck a chord with me. The focus of the reflection was if and/or how we seek wisdom. The first question was are we trying to seek wisdom at all in our lives, or are we just happy to go about our way doing the easy things without […]
God Won’t Forget
Today I was talking with a young woman who is in college. At the end of the semester last Spring, she was having a very hard time trying to schedule the classes that she needed. At that time she was very upset and struggling. When I asked her about it today, it took her a […]
Faith or Fear
A friend of mine shared a quote that I thought was very profound, “Faith and fear both ask you to believe in something you can’t see. The one you choose writes your future”. I don’t know exactly who wrote or said the statement, but I find it to be absolutely true. I have personally been […]
Be Love
Today is the Memorial of St. Therese of Lisieux – the “Little Flower”. I watched a movie about her a couple of months ago and learned more about her today. She was only 15 years old when she convinced the authorities to allow her to enter the convent. She was incredibly humble and knew that […]
Be Kind
I saw a quote from one of my favorite Christian artists, TobyMac, that read “There’s a stranger out there who still thinks of you because you were kind to them when they really needed it. Never stop being that person.” I thought those were beautiful words to live by. It reminded me of a t-shirt […]
