I was presented with a gift by a young lady I had the pleasure of meeting last week. We happened to be at the same place at the same time for two completely different reasons, but such is the way of Providence. She gave me a little book that contains the wisdom of St. Alphonsus … Continue reading Give Him Everything
Do you know the story?
I wish more people knew their story. It's a great story of salvation. It needs to be told so that everyone can know that each one of us matters. Very much. There is a Creator who is not just the "supreme being." He's actually not a being at all. This Creator is the sheer act … Continue reading Do you know the story?

Heaven is like…pizza!
There's a very cool concept that the Catholic Church likes, though too many Catholics don't know much about it. Many have probably never heard the word. It's subsidiarity. To simplify, it means that everything meaningful should happen at the most basic level whenever possible. We Are Family... So, the foundation of our society, in this … Continue reading Heaven is like…pizza!
Make Me An Instrument…
I know I share lots of songs with you; the link to the latest YouTube video is below. But this is just perfect for such a time as this, as the saying goes. One of the reasons I love this song so much is because it's based on the Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi. … Continue reading Make Me An Instrument…

I heard this song this morning (video below). My new grandson and his mommy (our daughter-in-law) have been staying with us and will be here another week and a half. Such a JOY for my husband and me. While our son, the new dad, is off doing the nation's business (he's a Soldier and out … Continue reading More like Jesus
“There Was Jesus”
So, first of all, I have to say that Dolly Parton is an amazing performer who sounds just like she did 30 years ago. She adds so much to the song, There Was Jesus, by Zach Williams. Give a listen if you haven't heard it yet. I love it! Zach said that this song is … Continue reading “There Was Jesus”
Teach Your Children*
When I observe with some consternation and much concern the wanton destruction of some of America's cities, I cannot help but wonder about the parents of these young people. Are their parents dismayed? Are they filled with regret for the ways they indulged or refrained from disciplining their offspring? Or are they wondering how their … Continue reading Teach Your Children*
God’s got the power
Back in May I wrote an entry entitled "Be Brave." It was about getting back outside and into the world, understanding the possible dangers, but being responsible as we deal with the pandemic. I still think that's necessary. I talked about how we used to be a nation of risk takers and we took pride in … Continue reading God’s got the power
Remind Me You’re Here
This song plays on my car's audio system pretty much every time I get in the car and drive any distance. I love it. I love the words of encouragement and inspiration. Here is a person wrestling with the "why" of his life. Why do certain things have to happen? Why this tragedy? Why this … Continue reading Remind Me You’re Here
