  • 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…

  • 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…

  • The Human Highway

     In my mind today, I am thinking about the human highway. It is true that we are all on our journey.  Students, have you paid much attention to the conditions of the human highway lately? There are lots of roadblocks and warning signs. Frankly speaking, I see a lot of lost traffic. Why are we…

  • Nuggets

    In my mind today, I have been feeding my brain with literature. I am studying again! Don’t moan back row, students. Be joyful that I am looking for God. It has been a while since I have had the strength to read and focus. What threw me out of my stagnating reverie was YouTube. Yes,…

  • Like a Rolling Stone

    In my mind today, I am thinking about The Rolling Stones. Students, I don’t expect you to know that band although they are still rolling on tour. They just lost their drummer at the ripe young age of 80 years old. I hear you back row. Yes he was ancient, but he was still a…

  • Dust

    Last week the verse “And whoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when you depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.” haunted me. I tried to interpret it into my own being. I have this flaw within me that wants to help and give until it…

  • ‘Till Death Do Us Part

    ‘Till Death Do Us Part In my mind today, I’m thinking about true partnerships and commitments. Yesterday was a dear friend’s birthday. We’ve know each other for years, but as of late we’ve become “soul sisters.” Our lives have eerily paralleled. We married young to older men who had children. We love being a mother.…

  • Happy New Year!

    Happy New Year! In my mind today I’m thinking of all of the blessings of 2017 and how things have changed from my childhood. Remember as a child how the 2000’s seemed otherworldly? They seemed so distant as we envisioned a world like The Jetsons. We’ve yet to have flying cars, but we have rumbas,…

  • Death

    Death In my mind today, I’m thinking of death. On the Catholic calendar, the day after Christmas is a day of remembrance for the first Christian martyr, Saint Stephen. As I read I was thinking, why would this be placed in such a celebratory time of year? Death. It does come for each of us.…

  • Creating Your Bedford Falls

    Creating Your Bedford Falls In my mind today, I’m thinking of my favorite Christmas movie, It’s a Wonderful Life. This is saying something because boy, I have so many favorite Christmas movies from classics to modern. The movie was originally a flop but over time it became a blockbuster. There are so many lessons in…
