Power of Music
A friend reminded me today of the difference that music can make in our lives. The lyrics to a song, such as I wrote yesterday, can touch our hearts. Combine the words with the movements of the melody and we can be swept away with thoughts, memories, and emotions – both good and bad. I […]
Thank God I Do
Today I heard a song on the radio that tugged at my heart – Thank God I Do by Lauren Daigle. It described how I have felt over the past year – even though the song is about different circumstances. It has been a particularly meaningful Lent for me, of which I am grateful. I […]
Looking Good
My friend’s mom has been undergoing chemotherapy for a couple of months, but doing fairly well. She came out to dinner tonight with a group of friends. It was good to see her functioning and visiting. It was tiring for her, but she did great. I Found God today seeing my friend’s mom who is […]
The Man Under the Shroud
The famous Shroud of Turin has always amazed me. It has long been believed to be the burial cloth of Jesus Christ. Tonight I saw a video that introduced a new “hyper realistic” model of the man who was wrapped in the Shroud. The figure was made in great detail and awesome to see. The […]

We talked about several reasons why this might be – a […]
Giving Up
There are things I do and think that are not at all positive or life-giving. I feel like I try so hard to change them to no avail. I pray and pray that God would change them. I’m sure He wants me to be a better person, so why doesn’t He just fix me? The […]
Good Samaritan
I stopped at a store while I was out today, and in the parking lot at the entrance was a car with a flat tire. The older man who owned it had pulled out the spare and tools and such. He looked a little distressed. I went on into the store and as the guys […]
Pulling Back the Curtain
It is easy for me to get caught up in the things that aren’t going well in my life and the lives of my loved ones. Not to mention the seemingly degradation of the world. In this morning’s meditation, Jeff Cavins said if we were to pull back the curtain between us and the spiritual […]
Importance of Prayer Time
I listened to a reflection this morning on the importance of prayer time. They said that the more we pray, the more we know God and His love for us. The more we know God, the less we are distracted by the happenings around us. We chase the things that we think will make us […]
