Connected
God In Me and You
Tonight I was excited to video chat with my prayer group who live so far away. To prepare for this night, we read the scripture John 14:15-21. One of the verses that we talked about quite a bit was verse 20, “On that day you will realize that I am in my Father and you […]
Earth Day, Birthday
My younger grandson LOVES my dog – so much so that one time he said she was his best friend. A few years ago, my grandsons were spending the night at my house on Earth Day. At one point they asked me when my dog’s birthday was. Since no one knows her true birthday, we decided we would […]
Divine Mercy Wisdom
The week after Easter is “Divine Mercy Sunday” in the Catholic Church. The purpose is to help people connect with the infinite grace and mercy that is available to us through Jesus Christ. St. Maria Faustina Kowalska was a woman who always felt an incredibly close relationship with Christ. As she grew to a young […]
Unexpected Connection
Tonight I had dinner with some friends. One of them shared the following great story. The other day she was headed to an auto repair shop to drop off some items for the company she works for. She was daydreaming as she was driving and missed the main entrance. She had to turn in the next […]
A Close Relationship
I am super blessed to have a friend who knows me well and has for the past 23 years or so. When we lived far apart, we only spoke a couple times a year. But when I went back for a visit, we would always get together. I was so happy that we would be […]
Coming Together
My sister’s new home is a small ranch property located in a neighborhood of sorts consisting of 10 small ranches along a dirt road. My sister’s property is at the very end of the private road. The road has been a mess pretty much since they moved in a few months ago and is in […]
Be Still and Know That I am God
Tonight I joined my prayer group, who is across the country, via speaker phone. Although it was not in person, it was still wonderful to connect. We each received a journal that we will use as we contemplate scripture together. The cover of the journal has the scripture, “Be still and know that I am God.” […]
And It’s A . . .
I was so excited for the BIG REVEAL today! My parents and I connected via video chat to my grandson’s tablet. The connection was not very good and kept freezing, but it was fun to see everyone there. Then came the big moment. My daughter-in-law’s sister was the only one who knew the gender of […]
Still Faithful
A few years ago, a wonderful teenager asked me to be her Confirmation sponsor. Of course I said I would and it was a beautiful day. I have tried to stay in touch with her as she graduated from high school and even college. I sent cards and trinkets for special occasions. Like so many […]
Unity In Prayer
A few years ago, a very faith-filled friend of mine felt pulled to create a small prayer group. For almost a year before that I had been continually praying for a group of women to pray and meet with on a regular basis. So when she called to ask what I thought about her idea, […]
