😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you.  Sunday’s Gospel reading was about Jesus visiting the disciples two different times.  Once without Thomas present and once with him there.  I really like the different treasures and focal points God gives us whenever we read His word.  This time He called my attention to John 20: 21-24 “JesusContinue reading “Wednesday, April 22, 2020”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you and happy blessed Easter.  Due to a new work schedule, I was off last Friday.  To take full advantage of that day, my plan was to get up at my normal work time, get ready for the day, start laundry, clean the bathroom, and work on some other choresContinue reading “Wednesday, April 15, 2020”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you.  Happy Holy Week!  This is my favorite week of the year, which leads up to praying and celebrating my favorite Mass of the year, Easter Vigil.  Yes, it will be different this year but the most important people (Father, Son, and Spirit) will still be with us.  You know,Continue reading “Wednesday, April 8, 2020”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you. Life and relationships are acts and actions of give and receive to keep you in balance. Activity and Rest. Work and Home. Learn and Lead. Public and Private. Mentor and Mentee. Journeying though this very different Lenten season, I’ve been thinking these past couple weeks about relationships. How relationshipContinue reading “Wednesday, April 1, 2020”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you.  Walking from the parking lot to my office yesterday morning, I was serenaded by a group of birds.  Ahh, breath in the morning.  The peace and calm of that moment brought a smile to my face.  Shortly before that, as I was driving to work the streets were lessContinue reading “Wednesday, March 25, 2020”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you.  This past week has been filled with the humanity of sadness and loss, and the promise of everlasting joy in and with the Lord.  Last Wednesday, March 11, 2020, a friend and member of our Greater Dayton Emmaus community passed away in his sleep.  Chris Wissinger was only 54. Continue reading “Wednesday, March 18, 2020”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you. Discernment. That’s a tough one no matter what point you are in your journey. Our decision can allow a life to flow smoothly along, cause it to turn on a dime, or might bring you a combination of smooth and edgy. Sometimes lack of discernment and fear of makingContinue reading “Wednesday, March 11, 2020”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you.  Last Hump Day was Ash Wednesday and Sunday was the first Sunday of Lent.  For going on 52 years now, I’ve experienced the Lenten season.  Typically, it’s been my least favorite liturgical season, but it feels different this year.  It doesn’t matter how many times you hear something, yourContinue reading “Wednesday, March 4, 2020”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you.  Wow, what did the Emmaus weekend experience mean to me?  I listen to music when I’m getting ready for the day, but Monday I made a conscience choice to not be distracted by the music and allow myself to listen for Him.  I allowed the workaholic in me toContinue reading “Wednesday, February 26, 2020”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you.  I’m so thankful the sun is starting to rise earlier.  Seeing and sharing a sunrise absolutely warms my heart.  Driving to a meeting Saturday morning, a friend and I were heading straight into the rising sun, which sparked a conversation about how transition lenses don’t change in the carContinue reading “Wednesday, February 19, 2020”
