We Will Be Them

I’ve always been an old soul. My mom dubbed me that a very long time ago. I’ve always loved being around seniors. They are special people; they have our history within them. Last night we had one of our Summer Soirees with our parish family. It’s an opportunity to go to dinner in the off-season…

Happy Birthday America

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Have a wonderful day, everyone. God Bless America!

Are You In?

Yesterday, one of our parishioners, well, more than that, a friend, messaged one of my coworkers and asked, “Are you in the office today”? This friend has had some serious health issues and a few surgeries recently. We’ve all been praying for her, and yesterday she wanted to take a short drive. We welcomed her…

Walk with an Open Heart

This morning, as I often do, I asked Father what message I could share today. “Open your heart” is what I heard as I sat and prayed. Listening to our Lord is more about listening with your heart than your ears. How many times have you given the advice to someone who is trying to…

Jesus Loves Me

I think I could end this little blog today with just those three words, Jesus loves me. Ok, see you all tomorrow 🙂 . I joke about that, but really, the message is just that simple. Through all of our trials, challenges, triumphs, and setbacks, He is there, and He loves us just the same.…

Indulgence

Last night, on the way home from dinner, I found myself listening to the Barry Manilow radio station on Pandora. Yes, truth be told, I’m a Fanilow, always have been. I can remember sitting in my bedroom as a kid and playing his albums, yes, the real vinyl albums, for hours on end. When we…

I Couldn’t Write

I didn’t write a little blog yesterday. To be honest, I don’t think it would have been a good thing to do. You see, I was upset. I was angry, sad, disgusted, and several other adjectives I can think of. When I woke up yesterday, those feelings were still strong, and I thought it best…

All Will Be Well

Over the past week, I’ve heard this phrase from different people at different times. Last night we had dinner with some dear friends. Schedules have been crazy, and we just haven’t had the time to get together, so it was wonderful to reconnect. We were discussing our church project; they, too, are parishioners. We talked…

It’s Not Tuff

There is an old saying, “Do the right thing even when no one is looking”. It doesn’t need a whole lot of explanation. This morning, as I was sitting on the lanai having my morning chat with Him, I thought about a situation recently. I’m really not sure why this particular time came to mind,…

Consistency

As I’ve restarted my fitness journey, one thing that is so important is consistency. Stay consistent with the way you eat, get rest, exercise, and water, oh, and sunshine every day. The more consistent you can be, the better your body feels. I thought about consistency this morning, but in a different way. Yes, my…
