I haven’t written for awhile because I couldn’t get into my account. Well, it took some finagling and I’m back! We have so many passwords in our life. There is one we don’t need to memorize and that is opening the Bible! Wherever you are, you can pop it open, or continue reading for aContinue reading “Lost Passwords”

Pieces of Grace
Today is my sister’s birthday in heaven. She passed away in 2020. It’s been a hard loss and I’ve written about it frequently. Today I have seen two butterflies attempting to get my attention; I feel they are her spirit visiting. I am standing in the grace of God, healing the pain of grief, allowingContinue reading “Pieces of Grace”
Pieces of Chaos
This post is a little like the last one, because a confession I must make is that I often jump the gun ahead of God’s plan for me, which results in chaos and anxiety. Sometimes it’s a control issue. I know, I know, we can’t even control our own lives, how on earth will weContinue reading “Pieces of Chaos”
Wise Counsel
We all need conversation with a friend, pastor or other enlightened person at various times in our life. It’s a hard earned wisdom, developed from a tumultuous journey with a definitive and positive outcome. Maybe we are the voice of reason for another one. Discernment is very necessary on big major decisions. And not justContinue reading “Wise Counsel”
Never a Bother
That’s quite an expression, Pooh has. It could mean so many things. Depends on how you look at it. Oh, isn’t that true of life, in general. It all depends on what you see/choose to see! I’ve probably been a real downer lately, my friend Mari made a bookmark for me that says: “If IContinue reading “Never a Bother”
A Season of Grief
The first day of summer is next week. Although I look out my window and see blue sky, sun streaming in, green grass, beautiful trees; in my heart, I feel mostly winter. Cold, dark winter. It is like the bottom of the well. A cave without light. An empty pit. Hollow. Disconnected. On my continuousContinue reading “A Season of Grief”
There is no “I” in Jesus
We are our own selves when we don’t have Jesus in our life. We let the ball roll where it may, we take little responsibility, we can keep hate in our heart, it’s not really a pleasant place. But this is where most people are before they are saved/walking a life in faith. Jesus doesContinue reading “There is no “I” in Jesus”
Irony
Yesterday I wrote a little about the various religions. Then later in the day I found a discussion on NPR about religious experiences people had had. It was a little mind-blowing! I think God definitely has a sense of humor and timing! Just as we experience the mundane in our daily lives, so do weContinue reading “Irony”
Pondering
Where better to ponder than my own blog? Perhaps you will chime in with your own blatherings? I am fond of saying: “I don’t think God put His mark on a certain religion and said “that’s that.” Not in regards to “Christianity” but instead to the myriad of religions. Is being Catholic better than beingContinue reading “Pondering”
Live, laugh, love
It’s not just a catchy slogan, although it kind of is! I think it incorporates all the ways in which we need to live (not should). Live with Jesus in your heart, be a good example, pray with abandon. Laugh, because it’s the “best medicine,” and it brings a smile. Love the world, open yourContinue reading “Live, laugh, love”
