There have been times in my life where I would think to myself, Be Elsa today and just let it go. The problem here is not thinking about letting it go, it’s the actual letting go process. I sometimes find that I am holding a grudge or am keeping relationships or things in my life… Continue reading Where do you need to let go?
The spirit inside us…
Do you ever wonder about the seemingly random holidays we have each month? There is a day for everything, food, people, even movies. I bet some of you heard “May the 4th be with you” recently. That actually got me thinking…about what? About the spirit inside of us and what unites us as spiritual beings.… Continue reading The spirit inside us…
What’s your work?
Have you ever woken up and just felt that you need to do something? This morning I woke up and thought I should go to mass. It’s been awhile since I have been to daily mass. I used to go on my way to work, then I stopped working in a school, and no longer… Continue reading What’s your work?
Caterpillars and butterflies
Lately it seems like butterflies are everywhere. On all my nature walks the past few weeks (and even in my front yard) I see them all the time. Yellow is the color of the week. Yes, it’s springtime, but I find them rather magical. I can learn many things from a butterfly. Have you ever… Continue reading Caterpillars and butterflies
Are you taking care of what God has given you?
Earth day is today so it got me to thinking about all the gifts that we are given, material and otherwise. We are told as kids that we should take care of our toys, our rooms, brush out teeth, etc. It seems that we have lot’s of “things” to take care of. As we get… Continue reading Are you taking care of what God has given you?
Where is the rainbow connection in your life?
I love rainbows. If it’s sunny and raining all at the same time (happens where I live) I will run outside and look. Rainbows are magical sights. It’s a literal connection between heaven and the Earth. Rainbows, connection, are you also thinking of an adorable frog? I’m sure like many of my generation, the Muppets… Continue reading Where is the rainbow connection in your life?
Would you repeat that please?
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
