Day 29 ~ Fiat
Veni Sancte Spiritus…Come Holy Spirit! Oh Blessed Mother what a fine example you are of willing and sacrificial obedience and surrender to the will of God. Help me to give and stand firmly within my fiat to God’s will too. I started to say, I will never bear the Son of God, but yet, asContinue reading “Day 29 ~ Fiat”
Day 27 – Purposefully Small
Day 26 -70 x 7
Another fine day above ground, Thanks be toGod!!!… every day above ground is a gift. Yesterday wiped me out and was also fulfilling. The challenges faced inspire me to plow ahead and continue pushing myself. That can take a toll on a broken body. The gospel today is about forgiveness, and though I’ve grown toContinue reading “Day 26 -70 x 7”
Day 25 – Trust is Hard
Today, all I have is a prayer. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Lord, I know you’re with me…please help me to, unlike Naaman, trust in you from the beginning. As I have a scheduled job that requires physical strength, this immune disease rears it’s head again and intense pain returns. You know my need and will help me through.Continue reading “Day 25 – Trust is Hard”
Day 24 – Lost and Found
Good morning. I am always happy to get new insights on today’s gospel reading, the story of the woman at the well. Hers is a story not too different from my own and May perspectives have come to me over the years. I was deeply moved by The Chosen’s’ presentation of it. Anyhow, time toContinue reading “Day 24 – Lost and Found”
Day 23 – The Solemnity of St Joseph, Husband of the Blessed Mother, Mary
So here I am again, on the go. Today is the Solemnity of St Joseph, the husband of Mary, our Blessed Mother. The novena to him which I just completed was inspiring. Joseph has always intrigued me. His humble presence as a strong, chaste, protective leader in the family is such an amazing example. I’veContinue reading “Day 23 – The Solemnity of St Joseph, Husband of the Blessed Mother, Mary”
Day 22 – Envy
Hi there! Today’s readings included the story of Israel, and his son Joseph and his brother’s. Envy took a toll on that family, as it does many. For years the deception led to a separation which was heartbreaking to the father. Eventually the truth came out, but not until after much hardship and a reunionContinue reading “Day 22 – Envy”
Day 21 ~ Living Water
Good Morning and Welcome! Thank you for joining my contemplation of a portion of today’s Mass reading from Jeremiah 17:7-8…being planted by the water. One of my biggest ongoing struggles is trusting in the Lord. There is no good reason for my struggle because the Lord always shows up when I need Him and callContinue reading “Day 21 ~ Living Water”
Day 20 ~ As a Butterfly
It is so beautiful and amazing to me that I am given an opportunity for a new start, each and every day. This is indeed an undeserved chance for me to make changes to better myself and the world around me. I rarely utilize this gift to a degree I could. Silly, lazy, selfish Mary.Continue reading “Day 20 ~ As a Butterfly”
