Morning Words
I’ve shared before that I have a wonderful little book that my husband bought for me a few years ago. He has his own copy; it was his mother’s. The book, “The Practice of Religion,” is filled with prayers, hymns, daily readings, etc. My edition was published in 1950; I do believe the first printing…

The Passion of our Lord
It’s Palm Sunday, the beginning of Holy Week. I mentioned yesterday that my husband and I readied the church for today. The palms are used to decorate windows, the altar, the crosses, and, of course, will be handed out to parishioners during the service. This service is special, and I’ve come to really love it.…

Palms and Perfection
We’re headed out this morning to ready our church for Palm Sunday services tomorrow. I have to admit, I love the way our church looks on this day. Don’t get me wrong, there is no denying the stunning beauty of Easter, all the lilies and spring flowers are amazing. However, the simplicity and meaningfulness of…

Operations of Easter
So, this week I’ve been talking with Father as I do my morning walk or bike ride. It’s been a nice change, as I’m spending more time in conversation and prayer. As I was riding along this morning, listening to the consistent hum of the tires, I began thinking about next week, Holy Week. To…

This morning I was riding my bike and talking with Father. It’s a routine I started this week, walking or riding and spending a little more time with Him each morning.

Thanking Jesus is Enough
Over the past few days, you all have been answering the call to help with lifting prayers for a friend of mine and his sister. Rick’s sister was dealing with some major health issues this past week. I won’t share all of the details out of respect for Rick, just know that it was a…

Helpless…No
We’ve all had those moments when we’ve felt helpless. Things happen that are out of our control, and we simply don’t know what to do. I think, for instance, about natural disasters. They happen, they do damage, and there is not much we can do to stop them; we can only prepare as best we…

It Is Well
My husband and I went to see the movie I Can Only Imagine 2 a few weekends ago. The movie is the sequel to one of my favorites, I Can Only Imagine. Both are based on the Christian music group, Mercy Me. The second movie picks up after the group made it big with the…

There You Are Jesus
I shared here in this little blog a few months ago that I carry a little Jesus figurine with me daily. A friend gave me one last year, and I’ve since bought a bulk quantity so I can hand them out to friends and strangers alike. When I reach into my pocket and feel His…
