Trust
Home Mass
I have been meeting with a great group of people in a “Small Church Community” for a couple of years now. It has been such a blessing. Several months ago, one of the men was diagnosed with bladder cancer. He had surgery that was successful at removing the existing cancer. Once he recovered, he and […]
He is Trustworthy
This morning as I was in prayer, I asked God to help me trust Him more. As I went through the day, I was reminded of the ways God already has taken care of me. I talked to a friend who is also a caregiver and remembered my incredible experience at Lourdes when I was […]
Mom’s Prayer
Today I visited a friend who has cancer and his wife. When I got back home, my mom and I questioned if it is harder for the one who is ill, or for the other who watches their loved one go through an illness. The latter can feel like there is nothing they can do […]
God’s Greater Plan
I read a beautiful thought that stayed with me today: “Regardless of the best plan you can put together for yourself with the greatest of your imagination, God has something much greater planned. If only you will surrender.” I Found God today in a reminder of the wonderful plan He has for our lives.
Let Go of Fear
I like going for walks around the cabin in the mountains. While we were there, we got together with some of my parents’ friends. One of them said that a while ago he had seen footprints of a mountain lion in his driveway. He said I was pretty brave to be hiking around there. I […]
Experience of God
I was talking with a group of people tonight about “feeling” God or the Holy Spirit. One man said that he didn’t ever “feel” God in his life. He knew about God. He is a faithful church goer and reads the Bible. He is very involved in the church and believes in Jesus Christ as […]
Dance of Difficulties
I had dinner with some friends tonight. One woman told us about a dance recital that she attended that her granddaughter was in. There was a dance portraying the life (so far) of a young woman. He family faced many challenges during the past few years. One of the biggest was when she received the […]
Going Into the World
I met a woman at a prayer group a couple of months ago and we have stayed in touch every now and again. She was on my mind today, so I sent her a message and told her I was praying for her. She said that she and her husband made the decision to move […]
Eye of the Storm
I was listening to music today and the song, “Eye of the Storm”, came on by Ryan Stevenson. It is about relying on and trusting in God when circumstances are beyond your control. I had heard the song several times and noticed that in one verse, the words can change. One time I heard, “. […]
Coloring Book
Quite a while ago, my sister and I bought a couple of coloring books and some colored pencils. We thought it would be a good activity for my mom and anyone else in the house since we heard it is supposed to be relaxing. I looked at the pictures to decide which one I wanted […]
