Hug With Prayers
After thinking about far away friends, I had conversations with a few today. It was so nice to catch up. However, even when I don’t talk with people for a long time for whatever reason, I still think about and pray for them. I saw a post from a friend that said, “When my arms […]
Returning To Support
I talked with a friend today. We both moved away within about a year of each other. She moved to a place with family and long time friends. Unfortunately, it didn’t work out as well as she had hoped. She told me that she recently moved back. She explained about the area she was living […]
Passing Through
I heard a story today that I loved. A young woman was in the airport with some friends having dinner before their flight. The gentleman who waited on them said he had been working there for 11 years. He loved his job now, but that wasn’t always the case. One day, the man realized that […]
Her Jewelry
Before my dad died, he, my mom, and I made notes about the interesting items they have collected from their travels around the world. We wanted to make sure people knew what they were and where they came from. My mom has been wanting to do the same thing with her jewelry. Tonight we decided […]
Called for Freedom
There were a couple of lines in the scripture reading this morning that really stood out to me. “For you were called for freedom, brothers and sisters.

Re-Reading
I was just perusing my previous blogs this evening. When I started writing, I simply wanted to shed a little light on the love and goodness that God offers every day. What I have received is so much more. I have managed to capture a somewhat decent record of my and my family’s live events. […]
Go Up
Today I went to a grief support group. We were to tell about one of the things we loved the most about our loved one who died. I always loved how my dad took us on adventures. Even though I had juvenile rheumatoid arthritis since I was 4 and couldn’t physically participate well, my dad […]
Unexpected Support
In my bible class tonight, we broke into small groups as we do each week to discuss the homework questions. One of the questions was, What deeds of yours would you hope to be remembered for? My answer was that as difficult as it is to care for my parents and as much as I […]
God’s Dwelling Is With Us
Today in Mass, we read part of the book of Revelation. It touched my heart and brought me hope and comfort. I wished everyone could hear these words not only in their ears, but in their hearts. It is such a challenging time right now for so many people and I feel we all need […]
Challenging Friend
It was a beautiful day today, so I had a beautiful walk with a beautiful friend. She is one who asks thought provoking questions and helps me to see things in a different way. I can easily get caught up in “stinking thinking” and it is so helpful to get out of my own head. […]
