  • Say YES to the Light

    Out of my body and into my mind, today I am thinking about holiness. I am thinking about that light of God that we are all gifted to have. The ability to say “Yes, God, send me. I want to do good in the dangerous, dark world. Let me bring Your light..remember that song, ‘This…

  • 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…

  • Gethsemane Days

    In my mind, I am still enjoying Easter. Students, it is the fourth week of Easter and life here in Tennessee is bursting with rebirth. It is also rising from the earth. Have you discovered all of the trees bursting with colorful blooms? Last week we read St. Stephen in Acts of the Apostles 6:…

  • Hotline to Heaven

    The Heaven Hotline In my mind today I felt Heaven and Earth meet. It all started with church.. I rolled into church as usual, saying hello to everyone that I met. Feeling our church family love all around us. I paused by the columbarium where the ashes of our loved ones are placed. I looked…

  • 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…

  • Are you there, God?

    Hosea 10:12 Sow righteousness for yourselves, reap the fruit of unfailing love, and break up your unplowed ground; for it is time to seek the Lord, until he comes and showers his righteousness on you. In my mind, I have been pulled in so many different directions. In the past month, I have been to…
