God Does Not Love
We had a guest priest at church today. He was from the poorest Diocese in Kentucky and was asked to be a missionary. He was very exuberant and it was easy to see why he was chosen for the job. Before he became a priest he was an actor and musician and was even in […]
Recognized Caregiver
One of the caregivers who comes a couple times a week is a truly wonderful young woman. She is super attentive, kind, and gentle with my mom. And I really enjoy talking with her. When the company came to review how things were going, I gave her the highest praise. Today when she got here, […]
Ready To Train
My son has been working on his Personal Training certification for several months. He just finished the course and set up his business. Today he announced that he got his first client. He was pretty excited about it. I was proud of him for pursuing something he really wanted to do, enjoys doing, and is […]
So Shiny
We are excited that there will be a lot of family here for Easter. So we have started to prepare. My mom wanted to make sure her wall hanging of the Last Supper was cleaned up, so I took it off the wall yesterday. It is a metal relief. My mom had used silver polish […]
Immediate Response
My mom and I said our prayers after dinner as usual, including specific requests for specific people. We have been praying for a family member who has been trying to find a new job. As soon as we finished and my mom blew out the candle, I received a text that the person was notified […]
Much Good News
There was a lot of positive excitement in the family today. My younger son registered for his first power lifting competition and had his weigh in today. He made the weight he intended and was pretty excited. My older son found out he got a job he was hoping for. It sounds like it is […]
Unexpected Joyful Soul
It was trash pick-up time when I went for a walk in the neighborhood today. The trash truck was stopped about half a block from me as I turned a corner. As I got closer, I saw one of the workers sweeping up some debris from the road. I have never seen that before. He […]
Living Your Call
Today I got a call from a friend. We talked about all kinds of things for quite a while. At one point she spent a few minutes just encouraging me. It wasn’t a formal prayer, but I felt God speaking to me through her as my eyes welled and heart filled. She talked about how […]
Little Less Labor
It snowed today . . . and snowed and snowed. It wasn’t a tremendous amount of snow, but it just kept coming down all day. By this afternoon, I was wondering if I should get outside and shovel, or if I should just wait for the morning. I wasn’t sure if there was enough snow […]
Working With God
I talked with a friend today and got caught up on family happenings. We discussed covid for a while as she, her husband, her daughter, and her son-in-law all work in the medical field and all live in the same home. Thankfully, none of them – or the toddler in daycare – have had any […]
