  • Take a Little Walk with Him

    In my mind, I am thinking about Lent. The first Sunday of the 40 days leading up to the most important day for human beings. The promised Messiah came and fulfilled the prophecy of death and sin destroyed by this God Man named Jesus. Jesus in His 33 years changed the way to eternal life.…

  • Embrace the Gift

    In my mind this past week, I have been busy. Monday was our Bible Study Christmas get together sharing time and conversation and prayers. This little group has been gathering together for at least four years, possibly longer. We’ve lost a few and added a few but we are still studying Emmanuel and searching to…

  • Ask, Seek, & Knock

    Ask, Seek, & Knock  In my mind,I have been pondering the world’s mindset of Advent, the Season of Christmas. A new year to follow the Church’s calendar brings me to try to deepen my faith, Christianity, when I feel the weight of the world’s view trying to eat away at the beautiful Christmas Story of…

  • Bucket Lists

    Bucket List In my mind today, I am thinking about “Bucket Lists.” When my body began betraying me in 2011, I felt that it was only going to progress. Why? I had an aunt who started falling at the age of 38, her legs would give out underneath her without warning. She became so weak…

  • I wept

    In my mind, I am remembering the verse, “Jesus wept.” As he peers down from the right hand of the Father, I wonder if His eyes fill with tears. Transitioning my mass times from early morning to Saturday at 5 PM because new seasons and chapters of my life with ALS has been tough but…

  • Easter is Coming!

    In my mind today, I can’t believe that we are so close to Easter. In less than 4 days, we will be together celebrating the most important day in every human being’s life. Back row, I know that Christmas is super exciting because of toys. Toys break and soon you get tired of them. Remember…

  • Troublesome Children  second week of Lent reflection

    In my mind during this second week of Lent, I have been thinking about troublesome children. Even the ultimate Father has had trouble from the beginning with disobedient children. This week we read about Cain slaying his brother Abel. The always classic The Prodigal Son which has many levels of perspectives. Students, kids have been…

  • Shine on!

    In my mind I am thinking about how time flies! It is already the end of the second week of Lent. Are you shining your Christ lights? Are you keeping your Lenten goals? If yes, great! If not, start today. Most people give up stuff for Lent: foods, vices, cursing or social media. These are…

  • Let’s Light Up Lent

    In my mind today, I am thinking about Lent, the forty days before Easter. Back row lint is in your jeans pockets and between your toes but Lent is a holy preparation time for Christians; we fast, pray, reflect on Scripture, and focus on what we need to do better. Yes, back row. We do…

  • Oh, Christmas!

    In my mind, I am thinking how can Christmas be just THREE days away? My heart starts beating faster just thinking about it. The sounds, smells, businesses buzzing, and humans scurrying around everywhere! It can drive a person mad. Let’s talk about the slowness of the postal service and all of the UPS and FedEx…
