    Life. It is such a gift from God. There are so many seasons. This season of being a grandmother is such a special time. All through your life you have different titles: daughter/son, student, wife/husband, mom/dad, employee, grammy/poppy, etc. Time goes by so fast. Life keeps rolling on and before you realize it, the ride…

    Is God with you? Do you notice when you look at your life how things look so bleak you feel hopeless? There are hard decisions to make and you feel like there is no good choice. Then you remember “ I am your refuge,” “ I lift my eyes up to the Lord, “ and”…

    “We don’t have a virtual God…God enters into the messiness of our world and he touches us.” Today my devotional focused on touch. Boy, I miss giving hugs, the high fives, and simple firm handshakes. The past holiday weekend was a tough one. My independence of adjusting myself and driving was taken when my chin drive…

    This Lent I discovered this prayer from Mother Olga of the religious order founder and servant mother of the Daughters of Mary of Nazareth. This prayer will stay on my lips until my last breath, “Empty me. Fill me. Use me.” It cleanses my heart. It fills me with the Holy Spirit. Most importantly it…

    The Transfiguration Second Sunday of Lent 2026 “Rise. Do not be afraid.” Last Sunday we traveled through the desert and this Sunday we traveled to the top of the mountain.  Matthew 17: 1-9 Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, and led them up a high mountain by themselves.

    Are you still with me working on turning back to God? Each day we take a step towards our home in the heart of God the evil one lays another snare in the path to turn us back or slow us down. Stay strong and empty your mind, heart, and soul of brambles of daily…

    How was your first Lenten weekend? I have some reflection questions for you: Did you see, hear, or feel God? Where? How? What did you do? How can you use that encounter today on your Lenten journey back to God?  Did you wear your armor? Did you use your sword (words of God)? Have you…

    How is your fasting going? Are you removing the negative thoughts and words? I am trying but like they say “Rome wasn’t built in a day.” Good Goobly Goo, I was battling my thoughts like Super Heroes battle Super Villains. “POW! CRASH! BOOM!” I was praying left and right. I was using my Spiritual Powers.…

    We have our ashes and remember that we are half human and half spirit. Genesis 3:19 “ for dust you are and to dust you will return.” We understand our bodies wear out and turn back into dust. 2 Corinthians 4:16 Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly…
