Another Day

Thoughts from a troubled soul…Challenged by life happenstances I strive to remain firm in my belief of God’s substantial providence. The state of the world lends to the strife and struggle in my life. Prices rising, increase in rent, clients having the same issues leads to a need for more clients and yet my goalsContinue reading “Another Day”

He is Risen, He is risen indeed! Alleluia!

To paraphrase the homily from Easter Mass, Love died on Good Friday, was silent on Holy Saturday, and returned to us on Easter Sunday when Christ rose from the dead. His sacrifice for our salvation was the most amazing gift ever given. He gave all, for all, and that gift is always there, but aContinue reading “He is Risen, He is risen indeed! Alleluia!”

Week 6~ Preparation

Hey Y’all, I decided to switch it up and may go to a weekly blog because the demands of life are many and managing my time is a part of the bigger plan. It all comes with the territory when you own your own business and are the only employee. Then there are the everydayContinue reading “Week 6~ Preparation”

Day 33~ Gratitude

Trigger warning ~ abortion/child loss. There is so much in life to be grateful for, even in the challenges and sorrows we face. How many times do things that feel so heavy, lead us eventually to an unexpected joy?

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.

Day 16 Pray for your Enemies

Wow, today’s gospel is a tough one. Jesus tells us to pray for our enemies. In society today it seems more and more challenging to know who is a friend and who an enemy…so many seem to be cancelling or flat out rejecting those who don’t believe the same as they do. On some level,Continue reading “Day 16 Pray for your Enemies”

Day 15 Community

Good Morning World! As I woke this morning to a cold snowy day in Oklahoma, I am so very grateful for the safety and warmth of my home. I thought about the Ukrainian people outside in even colder conditions without the basics of warmth, supplies, electricity, or even a roof over their heads as theyContinue reading “Day 15 Community”
