Hearing God

A friend of mine shared a quote by Toby Mac that my parents and I found meaningful. “It’s hard to hear God’s voice when you’ve already decided what you want Him to say.” I Found God today in a meaning quote.

Remaining Faithful

I have been missing my friends, so I was grateful to have lunch with one today. I hadn’t talked with her in months. Both of us have had our own struggles and challenges which we talked about. But we also had a lot to laugh about. Before we left we encouraged each other, vowed to […]

Back to Church Too

For a while now, my parents and I have been talking about getting them back to church. They haven’t attended in person for about a year and a half now. We have been waiting for them to feel comfortable in doing so. It has really been on my dad’s heart recently, and this afternoon was […]

Finally Seeing Better

In the Gospel reading, Jesus told His disciples “Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations,baptizing them in the name of the Father,and of the Son, […]

What’s Around the Bend

This morning as I was driving to pick up groceries, I came to the familiar blind corner. I have seen people fly around the corner without realizing there is a traffic light up ahead. As I cautiously entered the bend, the Christian music station that I was listening to played, “Forever On Your Side”, by […]

Hoping to See

My mom has been struggling to read her piano music for a while now. She got new glasses a couple years ago, but the prescription was not correct. We were able to visit the optometrist today who was super nice and got her set up for new glasses. We’re hoping she will be able to […]
