Tried and True

I’ve started something with my morning prayers and conversations with Father. I’ve added the Lord’s Prayer to the end of my conversation each morning. In the past, whenever I didn’t know what to pray or what to say to the Lord, well, I always fell back to His prayer. I’m guessing that is pretty common…

Work for Me

I walked my route again this morning, only unlike yesterday, the golf club was totally lit up. The lights were on everywhere. I noticed workers inside the club, in the cart barn, and people pulling into the parking lot as I walked through. My goodness, it wasn’t even 5:30 a.m. yet. As I walked and…

It Will Be Ok

I have to admit, when my alarm went off this morning, I was like, “Really, it’s time to get up already”? It took me a few minutes to get moving, and even when I headed out the door for my walk, I was fighting curling back up with my blanky 🙂 . I started up…

Picayune

As I was driving home last night, I noticed what I thought were weird clouds in the distance. The closer I got to home, the more I realized these weren’t clouds; this was smoke, and like a lot of it. By the time I got home, the smoke had made its way from the southeast…

Stand Up for Me

This morning, as I walked, I heard this message clearly. I hadn’t even asked Father what message I could share yet, so I’m guessing this is one that He really had on His mind 🙂 . We’ve all been in those situations when something is happening and you know it’s not right, but you don’t…

Deep Inside

A few months ago, I wrote about a couple that I’ve had the pleasure of knowing for the last few years. They are members of a wonderful 65-and-over golf group that I work with in planning their events. Twice a year, this group gets together and, yes, enjoys golf, however they enjoy much more than…

A Thankful Heart

I found a prayer this morning that is specifically for Fridays. It’s interesting because on my walk this morning, one of the things I asked Father to do was open my heart and fill it with His love, so that I might share it more fully with others. In reading the “commentary” on this Friday…

The Light of Christ

One of my favorite services during Holy Week is the Saturday evening service. It’s known as the Great Vigil of Easter. I won’t go into all the specifics about the service, that’s for another blog, but what I will say is that it is one of the most beautiful services you’ll experience. The service begins…

He Sleeps

Holy Saturday. God, in the flesh, Jesus, sleeps. He descends to hell to bring the souls of His children who have gone before, home with Him. The image of God bringing Adam and Eve out from the gates of hell, how powerful is that? He literally died in the flesh to release His children from…

Three Sacred Days

They begin today, the three most sacred days of the year. It’s called the Triduum and spans Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday. The passion of our Lord lived out across these next few days. On Maundy Thursday, we relive the last supper and Jesus washing the feet of His disciples. It’s at the…
