Favorite Psalm
As we finished the book of Psalms in my Bible class, the last homework question was, “What is your favorite Psalm?” This was a tough question as I found so many of them meaningful. I recognized quite a few from my days in the church choir. Then, I recognized even more in the contemporary Christian […]
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 […]
The Sitter
Today my grandson came over to hang out with my mom for a little bit while I ran an errand. He brought his little sister who didn’t have school today. They all made PBJ and butter sandwiches for lunch. When I returned, my grandson dropped off his sister and headed to my son’s house. My […]
Back Inside
I made an appointment for my mom and I to visit with my dad this afternoon. They have been scheduling only outside visits as they make their way through this COVID breakout. When we arrived we were given the good news that the facility is COVID free and could resume indoor visits. That was great […]
Giant Incense Burner
Ever since I saw the movie, “The Way” with Martin Sheen, I have been fascinated with the Camino de Santiago, or the Way of St. James. There are actually several different pilgrimage trails called the Way, but they all end at the Cathedral of St. James in Santiago de Compostela, Spain. The Cathedral is believed […]
St. Therese Novena
I have been praying the St. Therese Novena that will be completed on her Feast Day – October 1. As always, God sends me prayers, meditations, readings, etc, that are exactly what I need. Today these words touched my heart:Loving God, you loved St. Therese’s complete trust in your care. Help me to rely on […]
Most Powerful Weapon
Today is the feast day of St. Padre Pio. He suffered much in his life as a priest, but remained prayerful and vigilant. One of his quotes is, “Some people are so foolish that they think they can go through life without the help of the Blessed Mother. Love the Madonna and pray the rosary, […]
Thankful
I have much to be grateful for today. Most of all, I am thankful that my family is safe and ok and I spent another day able to be with or talk with them. I Found God today grateful for my family.
Small Groups
I had my online Bible class tonight. When we met in person for the first 2 years, we met in small groups for the first half hour discussing the homework. As we talked, people shared their faith experiences as well. Last year was online and completely lecture based with no small groups at all. This […]
