On Grace

"...and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out into our hearts through the holy Spirit that has been given to us." - Romans 5:5 I love this quote. It brings me such comfort. I hope it does that for you, too. That love which has been poured out into … Continue reading On Grace

A gift that keeps on giving

She brings me a picture that she's drawn on a tiny scrap of paper from a writing tablet that she's cut up with her children's scissors. Sitting on the living room couch, lost in thought, this wisp of a girl floats into the room noiselessly and presents me with a precious gift. "I drew  you … Continue reading A gift that keeps on giving

“A (Shooting) Star Is Born”

Little Baby E was born to eternal life last week on March 11th. It was also his birthday, the actual day that we was born: March 11, 2019. At the 35th week of gestation, his birth was awaited with great joy and anticipation by those who already loved him. His stillborn birth was a shock … Continue reading “A (Shooting) Star Is Born”

I dreamed a (good) dream

Dreams fascinate me. The meaning behind the crazy stories a brain makes up are truly mystifying and, sometimes, if we pay attention and ask for assistance in deciphering their meaning, we find there's a message in the 'madness.' I read a book one time written by 2 Christian psychologists who approached dream interpretation from its … Continue reading I dreamed a (good) dream

“Ease his pain”

I've been thinking a lot about a quote from Field of Dreams recently. I hope you've seen the movie; it's one of my favorites. In it, a lover of and former player of baseball begins to hear voices. More precisely, he hears one voice, a male one, saying very cryptic things that only the protagonist, … Continue reading “Ease his pain”

Ups and downs

Life's journey has many ups and downs, as we all know. But we need the valleys to appreciate the mountaintops, right? We not only need them, we should be grateful for them. That sounds strange. Why would we want to be in a desolate, dark place ever? Who wouldn't rather be in the glorious sunshine … Continue reading Ups and downs

Words From A Little Child

Here's a poem I wrote as a gift for a friend many years ago. I gave it to her as part of the gift at her baby shower for baby #1. And I have shared it since with my own daughter when she was expecting her first baby! Kind of 'advice from the kid before … Continue reading Words From A Little Child

Heaven Starts Here and Now

"Heaven is the perfect end of a life spent loving God, not the end reward for a life spent being perfect." - John Henry Newman I hope these words of Blessed John Henry Newman provide you comfort because they are true. I heard once that St. Francis of Assisi was asked while he was hoeing … Continue reading Heaven Starts Here and Now

God Only Knows

God only knows what you've been through. Any of us. Oh, we can tell stories or write about it. We reveal the scars on our spirits and the state of our hearts with our lives, what we say and how we treat ourselves and others. But none of us can ever really know what you've … Continue reading God Only Knows
