My heart was moved to share a prayer today. My God, comfort all who mourn. Help us, Lord, to be people of compassion and of wisdom. Many are desperately seeking good and so are seeking God. Though they may not know it. Help us, those who have experienced Your grace and know You, to be … Continue reading A Prayer for Today
Auld Lang Syne
It's 4 days into the new year so I'm a little late. But, hey, I'm trying. I read an interesting article yesterday about the cancel culture we are now living in and how there is no room for forgiveness and mercy. I happened to write about that myself a while back. Go here to read … Continue reading Auld Lang Syne

Rise Up!
I have been thinking a lot lately about how I'm supposed to spread the Good News. It's no small question and it's something as a Christian I am instructed to do by none other than our Founder, Jesus Christ. And it's truly about following His example of humility and compassion. My blog is one attempt … Continue reading Rise Up!

And then we ask forgiveness for our sins against God, which means any sin against another person because Jesus said, what you … Continue reading When We Pray
Thoughts on Mary Poppins
Sometimes, when I don't know what to say, a song shows up that says it for me. And that's today. So, listen to this song by Big Daddy Weave, but read the words, too. Use them as a prayer. Go on. It will do you good. I couldn't help but think of supercalifragilisticexpialidocious when I wrote … Continue reading Thoughts on Mary Poppins
Thoughts on Ascension Thursday
Well, it's 40 days since the Resurrection. Jesus is risen! Alleluia! The tomb was empty and many were confused and upset by this event. What did it mean? The apostles knew what it meant because Jesus appeared to them multiple times after He rose from the dead and they had plenty of conversations. But now, … Continue reading Thoughts on Ascension Thursday
Something I read today…
Today I read something that basically said, "be who God made you to be." It reminded me that I gave that advice to someone I love very much several years ago. She was struggling with depression and anxiety and it so grieved me to see this vibrant, passionate, witty, scary- smart person languishing, emotionally paralyzed … Continue reading Something I read today…
The Reason for the World
I just heard a song yesterday for the first time. It's by one of my favorite Christian singer/songwriters, Matthew West. The lyrics are below. Appropriate that I should hear the song on 9/11, the anniversary of the terrorist attack that changed the world. In many ways, it was changed for the worse. But there is … Continue reading The Reason for the World
