So, you all know how I love my contemporary Christian music. And here is one I just heard yesterday from the prolific Matt Maher. It's based on Psalm 150 which ends, "Let everything that has breath praise the Lord!" The psalmist goes through quite the litany of things that should praise God. And finally seems … Continue reading Praise the Lord
Feast of the Conversion of St. Paul
Today the Church celebrates the conversion of Saul of Tarsus. He becomes Paul the Apostle and he pretty much helps change the trajectory and the mission of the Way - (Christians). Paul gets that ALL nations should worship the one true King, Jesus Christ. It's in the Old Testament, too, if you care to look. … Continue reading Feast of the Conversion of St. Paul
Beauty & Terror-Thoughts on Jojo Rabbit
I just found out a couple of days ago that the movie, JoJo Rabbit, was nominated for an Academy Award. I hope it wins. Maybe then more people will go see it. Below is my 'review' of the film after I saw it a few months back. Please read and consider. Thanks. https://drowning-in-lemonade.com/2019/11/10/beauty-and-terror-thoughts-on-jojo-rabbit/
Fighting My Battles
Psalm 30 is such a trove of consolation and encouragement. I found it the other day, as the Holy Spirit would have it, while looking for something to share with a young lady who was grieving the loss of a loved one. I have lots of options, obviously, but Psalm 30 was the thing that … Continue reading Fighting My Battles
Why We Walk
Below is another one of my entries for the San Diego Walk for Life website's blog. I have amended slightly since the Walk took place a couple of days ago. But we plan to continue. And on this Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday, I just want to share the fact that we are non-violent individuals … Continue reading Why We Walk

Please read my post from the SDWL 2020 blog on their website to understand some of the reasons why I am a pro-life woman. I have met so many compassionate, loving, non-judgmental, selfless, and … Continue reading Live, Serve, Embrace Life
With a little help from our friends (reblog)
Here's the link to a re-blog from 2017. It's the same account but from the Gospel of Mark instead of Luke (the synoptic Gospels - Matthew, Mark, & Luke - often have versions of similar stories). I was reminded of my thoughts on the paralyzed man being lowered down through the ceiling today while at … Continue reading With a little help from our friends (reblog)
Let it be
"We should be willing to let the Holy Spirit lead us in every part of our lives. We should be so surrendered to God that wherever He tells us to go or whatever the Holy Spirit tells us to do, we should simply be obedient and follow." - Rick Renner from Sparkling Gems from the … Continue reading Let it be
Rosary for Warriors update
I have been sharing the Rosary for Warriors for close to 15 years and suddenly, within the last week, it has started to really spread around the country and even the world! To say I am grateful is an understatement. To say I am relieved is an accurate description. I was NOT a devotee of … Continue reading Rosary for Warriors update
The miles still matter…
I heard this song this morning. Every Mile Mattered, Nicole Nordeman tells us. And I know it's true. It all makes us who we are. Learn from mistakes, ask forgiveness for them. And please believe that God has forgiven you when you truly ask Him to when you truly are sorry. And then move forward, … Continue reading The miles still matter…
