Grateful
Knowledgeable and Thoughtful
Not too long ago I received notice from my mobile carrier that they would no longer be supporting my phone. I didn’t want to get a new phone. To me it’s so hard learning how to work a new one. But, I had to. My brother offered me to join his service. Since I was […]
Midday Mass
At Mass on Sunday, the pastor announced they would begin having Mass on Tuesdays and Thursdays at noon. The new schedule would begin today, All Souls Day. My mom and I talked about trying to go. Things worked out just fine today so that we were able to attend. It was a blessing to take […]
Meaningful Discoveries
A while ago, I put together a notebook with some pens and pencils and put them on the table in my dad’s room. The hope was that he would write down some thoughts or note. After a week or so, I wrote a small I Love You message on the first page of the still […]
Love God, Love Your Neighbor
The Mass readings for today included Deuteronomy 6:2-6 and Mark 12:28-34. In the first reading, Moses gave the law to Israel to “…love the LORD, your God, with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength.” In the Gospel, Jesus expanded on this by adding, “You shall love your neighbor […]
Cabin Times
We decided to close up the cabin for the winter this year to save some money. My brother got the guy from the water company to come blow out the pipes to make sure nothing freezes. Today my sister and I went for a drive and stopped up there. We took care of a couple […]
Visiting Again
Last night I met with my prayer group online. It was wonderful to pray and visit. I got our family friend scheduled to spend a couple hours with my mom, so today I met a friend for a hike and a talk. It was a beautiful day for it. I feel like I’m starting to […]
Close Family
Yesterday my mom wanted to take a walk as the weather was mild. I wanted to get out somewhere other than around the housing complex. Then I remembered my son and his family moved into a house that is directly across the street from a beautiful “Reflection Pond” owned by the neighboring church. We went […]
Catching Up Double
Today I was surprised and overjoyed to get a phone call from not one, but two long time far away friends. I was able to catch up with both. We listened to each others’ stories and promised to continue to pray for one another. I felt very blessed. I Found God today catching up with […]
Busy Brother
I kept my brother very busy while he was here for a visit. He said to make a list of things that needed to be done, so I did. He did lots of projects for my mom, my dad, and me. We also made daily trips to see my dad. I was glad for another […]
Baby Prayers
When we arrived to visit my dad today, the young woman who greets us at the door couldn’t wait to tell us her good news. She said she just found out she was pregnant. She said her friends there at work will throw a gender reveal party when the baby is old enough to find […]
