The readings at the beginning of the year focus on the human manifestation of Jesus and the pivot to his pubic ministry. To me, this is so that as we begin a new year, we are connecting to the human side of God. We celebrated Jesus’ birth and baptism. It’s hard not to love a… Continue reading What are you looking for in 2026?

Are you cultivating your relationship with God?
A new year is always a good time for a check-in. So let’s check in today about our relationship with God. My first question to you might be- Do you want one? I’m aware that not everyone believes in God. I’m also aware that all religions pray to the same God. There might be a… Continue reading Are you cultivating your relationship with God?
Are you as wise as the three kings?
Today is one of my favorite holidays and it’s not because the cake is delicious. Epiphany or the feast of the Three Kings is the twelfth day of Christmas. In some cultures, this is a huge holiday all by itself. In Puerto Rico, children will be leaving shoes out with hay for the camels, there… Continue reading Are you as wise as the three kings?
It’s a new beginning. Did you rest and recharge?
We are almost back to “real life”….in the past two weeks, there have been lots of holidays and celebrations.

Happy New Year! What’s your word?
It’s hard to believe that a new year has begun! Time can seem to fly and stand still all at the same time.

Some years the passing of time is very quiet and others… Continue reading Happy New Year! What’s your word?
It’s the 5th day of Christmas. Are you celebrating?
On the sixth day of Christmas my true love gave to me five golden rings. I don’t know what I would do with five rings. That would only be enough for one hand, it sure would be shiny though. Seriously though, the feast of Christmas lasts for 12 days. It’s the 12 days after December… Continue reading It’s the 5th day of Christmas. Are you celebrating?
Have you prepared the way?
I know, I know….Christmas is in a few days. Who is prepared? There is baking, cooking, cleaning, wrapping, shopping, traveling….all things to do. Those all sound like I’m preparing, and I am.

It’s almost Christmas. Are you joy-full?
It’s the third week of Advent…how did that happen? Well, time marches on even if we aren’t aware! This week is all about joy. That word seems to be everywhere this time of year, but are you filled with joy or filled with busy? It’s really hard to pause in this season, there are many… Continue reading It’s almost Christmas.

It’s the season of giving. Are you good at receiving?
Here is my struggle. I love to give gifts. It’s my primary love language. I pay attention to what people like and love to surprise them. I enjoy making sweets/baking and sharing them. Just yesterday my colleague said that lunch is her favorite time of day because she sees me. Do you think it’s maybe… Continue reading It’s the season of giving. Are you good at receiving?
Have you seen a miracle today?
Have you ever thought that miracles are all around us, you just have to be open to seeing them? I can tell you with certainty, I was in the visicinity of many miracles this past weekend.
