Perfect Puppy

This morning I got together with my friend with the puppies. I asked if they were at their new homes yet. They are going this weekend. One was placed immediately. The other was supposed to go to a certain home, but it didn’t work out. My friend called the next person on the list and […]

Answered Prayers

I’m happy to talk with my siblings on Zoom every week. For a long time now, my brother has been telling us about his neighbor who has been in and out of the hospital with C-dif. He was taking care of the dog and trying to keep it from getting too lonely, although it was […]

Treasured Friendship

This morning I read the scripture Sirach 6:5-17. It was all about the different kinds of friendships. This is what it said to me:  Speaking kindly to people will lead to many friendly relationships and can dissuade those who disagree with you. Having many acquaintances is good, but be careful of who you trust. Some […]

Go Outside

I have been going to physical therapy as my back has been not cooperating with me for some time now. For me, it is difficult not to just push through pain to do what I would like to do. But, I am trying to live in that balance between full speed ahead and not being […]

Kind to Myself

As I was listening to the radio today, I heard an introduction to the song, “Kind to Myself”, by Tenth Avenue North. The singer explained that we are so quick to put ourselves down and get frustrated with our own behavior. However, God sees through all that and loves us the way we are. This […]

Long Phone Call

I had some things on my mind today and felt I needed help making sense of it, so I reached out to a friend. She called me almost immediately and we talked for over an hour. We shared similar experiences and she did, in fact, help me to sort out the things in my mind. […]

Rest

I have been busy this week and pretty physically active. This morning I felt it. My body and back were aching and I was moving pretty slowly. With the many options of the day before me, I prayed and asked God what He would have me do. As I sat silently, I was aware of […]

Sharing Cells

Today I heard a fascinating presentation about the somewhat recent discovery of how the baby in the womb shares cells with his or her mother. It’s called microchimerism. It’s been known that mother and baby share cells through the placenta. However, recently scientists found that a woman who carried a male baby had the male […]

Long Distance Prayer

Today was the meeting day with my prayer group. However, it was super cold. Not only that, some members weren’t feeling well. One of the gentlemen set up a Zoom meeting and all but one of us was able to attend. It was especially important as one of the ladies had recently experienced a tragedy […]

Finished the Book

Today I finished the book “The Five People You Meet in Heaven” by Mitch Albom. It only took me 4 days, which is unbelievable to me. As I was talking with my sister about it, I think the last full book I finished reading for pleasure was a Nancy Drew in Jr. High School. From […]
