😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you. As I sat on my front porch swing contemplating today’s message, I noticed a squirrel crossing the road dodging left and right with indecision, for fear of the oncoming car. Seconds later the driver continued on his journey, probably without a clue that he just changed the squirrel’s life. Continue reading “Wednesday, October 2, 2019”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you.  God loves you so much, that sometimes He just needs give you a swift kick in the pants to get you to quit wallowing in self pity.  He gets to that point where enough is enough. He’s tired of seeing you hurt yourself and He’s kind enough to giveContinue reading “Wednesday, September 25, 2019”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you. While eating breakfast last Thursday I read and pondered that day’s quote: “I don’t want to trust my own heart, Lord. I want to trust Your Word and Your instruction so that I will walk wisely and never do ignorant or stupid things. Make me to be a wiseContinue reading “Wednesday, September 18, 2019”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you. Physical touch is such an important aspect in our lives. I believe that sense of touch and desire/longing for touch starts in the womb.  I remember when I was pregnant, how the girls would stretch a hand or foot out and I would put my hand on my bellyContinue reading “Wednesday, September 11, 2019”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you. Wow, can you believe it’s September already?  Where has this year gone?  Reflecting on the past eight months it’s interesting to see the changes and comings and goings of relationships in my life. Thinking about relationships that were in my life on January 1st, I couldn’t have predicted someContinue reading “Wednesday, September 4, 2019”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you. 1 Samuel 2-10: “One night Eli, whose eyes were becoming so weak that he could barely see, was lying down in his usual place. The lamp of God had not yet gone out, and Samuel was lying down in the house of the Lord, where the ark of God was. Then the Lord called Samuel.  Samuel answered, ‘Here I am.’ AndContinue reading “Wednesday, August 28, 2019”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you. Granted, I haven’t read it completely through a multitude of times, but I’ve read through the Bible enough to know that I will never completely understand the Bible in my lifetime. What I do know is that as I grow more in the Spirit, I’m able to understand howContinue reading “Wednesday, August 21, 2019”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you.  Sunday during Father’s homily he said something that was very sobering and brought tears to my eye.  I have to tell you, they weren’t happy tears, they were because of my recognition of failure. Father was talking about his first parish assignment as a priest and shared with usContinue reading “Wednesday, August 14, 2019”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you. Earlier this week Brian and I celebrated our 18th anniversary by spending a few days in the Traverse City, MI area. Wow!  I’m really in awe of the beauty God created in that area. Sure, being in the Dayton, OH area we see flat corn fields all of theContinue reading “Wednesday, August 7, 2019”

😎🐫🎤 Christ’s peace be with you. I know we’ve all had those moments looking at a picture of ourselves when we start picking on ourselves. I don’t like this…  I don’t like that…  Delete!  I’ve come to a point in my life that I don’t worry so much about that stuff. I’m comfortable with whoContinue reading “Wednesday, July 31, 2019”
