One of my favorite Sunday activities is my Sunday stroll. There are many beautiful parks within a short distance and I enjoy spending time outside walking, enjoying nature, and just being. Today as I began my walk, I noticed that some of the sidewalk had lots of drawings and really big was written Isaiah 41:10.… Continue reading Would you repeat that please?

What do you do when you can’t pray?
Have you ever had a day where, the pile of things to pray for and your needs plus all the other needs is just overwhelming? What do you do? Are you able to sit with the pile to sort through it and pray about it or is it just too overwhelming? Sometimes I can be… Continue reading What do you do when you can’t pray?
A total eclipse of the heart.
Like many of you I am sure, I spent a portion of today looking up at the sky, marveling at nature. Even though I could only see a partial eclipse (about 85%), it was still a pretty magical sight. Do you know that eclipses happen on a regular basis, every 1 to 3 years? If… Continue reading A total eclipse of the heart.
Pray, trust, wait
Have you seen those words on a sign? I have one. It says Three little words, pray, trust, wait. Those words sound small and have four or five letters but there is a lot packed into those three “little” words. Let’s look at them individually. Pray. It’s not difficult for me to pray. I do… Continue reading Pray, trust, wait
He is risen!
Happy Easter!! At the beginning of Lent, it seems like Easter is never going to arrive, we are just going to be waiting forever. All of a sudden, it’s Holy Week and there are so many services to attend. Each is different and beautiful in it’s own way, but if you attend them all you… Continue reading He is risen!
Who or what makes you brave?
Bravery has been on my mind this week. I pondered it last weekend when thinking of missionaries and St. Patrick. It has lingered in my mind all week- in a dream about Joan of Arc, and then references to Joan have popped up intermittently all week. So I took the nudge and looked up why… Continue reading Who or what makes you brave?
Did you know that St. Patrick was a missionary?
Do you celebrate St. Patrick’s day? There is an air of mystery about him. I feel that way about many of the saints of the early church. Thinking about the 5th century, I have to wonder what is fact and what is fiction. A few facts to ponder as we celebrate. We associate St. Patrick… Continue reading Did you know that St. Patrick was a missionary?
Happy Pi(e) day!
It’s March 14th- 3-14 so it’s Pi day! I think it’s an excuse for Math teachers to finally have a food day. Or even a good excuse to eat pie. I do enjoy a good slice of apple pie. Yum! This post is not about an apple pie, although I can relate it to that.… Continue reading Happy Pi(e) day!
Spring brings new life and opportunities.
What is budding in your life right now? Seasons change whether we like it or not and spring follows winter. Depending on where you are in the country (or world) right now, you might think I’m crazy for talking about spring- it’s still cold and dreary at your house. In my southern corner of the… Continue reading Spring brings new life and opportunities.
What does it mean to be a temple of God?
Lately, I have been pondering how Bible verses show up in our conversations, almost without us being aware. There are phrases that I hear and then later, I’m reading a blog or a Bible verse and there it is. It surprises me almost every time, and it should not. One such phrase that I hear… Continue reading What does it mean to be a temple of God?
