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. The resident was there and had recently been through a surgery. While my friend was going about his business and chatting […]
Finding True Wisdom
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 […]
Race Team Dream
I printed some photos of the wedding and put them in a little book to show them to people. I figured it was easier than passing my phone around. As I was showing them to some friends today, we talked about my grandchildren and what they were doing. I shared that my older grandson had […]
Teamwork
I had to have a basal cell skin cancer spot removed from above my eyebrow yesterday. Actually, while the dermatologist was performing the outpatient surgery, he found that it had grown into my eyebrow as well. I was glad that my son picked me up after the procedure, so I didn’t have to try driving […]
Encouraging Words
Today I read an article that quoted Arnold Schwarzenegger. There was a line that reminded of what I was thinking yesterday. “If you find yourself falling for the anger, go out in the real world and make yourself human again.” Then I saw an encouraging post by TobyMac that speaks to our spirituality. “Focus on […]
True Kindness
Before taking my road trip back in May, I took my car in for an oil change and to check things over. At that time, they said I would need new brakes when I returned. But, for the past few months, I have just been busy doing things and didn’t make the time to take […]
