Lost and Found

We got a call yesterday from one of our parishioners. John had lost his phone and glasses and was fairly certain that he had left them in the pew where he had been sitting on Sunday morning. I asked my facilities manager to go on the hunt for the missing items. He searched everywhere in…

Let Him Have This Day

I’m heading out early this morning. The 1/2 marathon runs right by our church, so I’m trying to beat the runners, lol, pun intended. So friends, I’ll just share a tune for you to start your Sunday. May your day be filled with opportunities to spend time with Father. Let Him have this day 🙂…

Trust Him to Guide

Do you believe that Father brings people into our lives for a reason? I certainly do. I don’t believe there are coincidences; I believe that the Lord has a plan for all of us and uses all things for good. I know there are times when we face challenges and definitely don’t feel like anything…

Look Past It

I’m guessing, if you’re like me, you’ve had times in your life when you’ve felt slighted, wronged, or you’ve felt like something just wasn’t fair. Yes, there have been a few times in my life when I’ve been there, done that. As parents, we try to teach our kids that life is not always going…

Give Up Giving Up

Many years ago, when we still lived up north, the Priest at our church had an answer to “Father, what are you giving up for Lent?”. He would always say, “I’m giving up giving up”. I used to think that was his polite way of saying that he wasn’t giving up anything for Lent. Well,…

Sticking To It

Yep, that’s what I’m doing today. One of my first 2026 posts in this little blog was about taking the time to work on the paint-by-number that I purchased at Christmas back in 2020. Yes, five years ago, and I haven’t come close to finishing it. This is the year that I do. I encouraged…

One of Ten

I’ve shared here before that I receive a daily devotional text from a friend of mine who is a priest. He is taking us through the Ten Commandments right now, and I’ve been learning a great deal from his messages. Yes, I know these ten simple rules that Father asked us to follow. However, digging…

The Shadows

This week I’ve been walking before I write this little blog. It’s been interesting as I get into this new routine. First, I must say, I’m enjoying getting my body and mind going before I come here to share. I spend my time with Father first thing, read the inspiration my friend sends to me,…

Getting Through

Over the past few days, I’ve been thinking about difficult things that have happened to people. Some I don’t even know. I shared a few days ago the story of a young 4-year-old boy who went missing on New Year’s Eve day. Unfortunately, they found his body a day or so later. Of course, I…
