It’s not just any Wednesday, it’s Ash Wednesday. So much could be said about this day and about the season of Lent. But this passage from Mass this morning is one of my favorite reminders of what this is all about. “Even now, says the Lord, return to me with your whole heart, with fasting,…
Finding My Way
It’s Wednesday again, but I am doing things a bit differently. Usually, on Wednesdays, I post something on my Facebook page about prayer and gratitude. Often, I post late at night. (I am definitely a night owl.) Today I am posting early! But as this post is titled, I am trying to find my way…
Prayers for a New Year
Hello friends, it’s another Wednesday, and a blustery one, at that! I was looking at some old emails and notes, trying to catch up on stuff I let slide during these 12 Days of Christmas. I was reminded of some things I need to do, but also some people who need continued prayer. My brain…
At the End of the Year
It’s NOT Wednesday! It’s Thursday, but God creates every day, so here I am. By the time I pondered posting this last night, I was just too tired. The days are technically getting longer, but my body can’t tell the difference yet! I am working on some writing and stamping projects, very much aware of…
Find Rest
It’s another Wednesday! My heart and mind are filled with thoughts of friends and family experiencing hard times. Sickness of a child. Struggles in a new job. Death of a loved one. Each of us, at one time or another, is heavily burdened with something. But God promises He will help us carry the burden.…
God Bless America!
In a few days, the United States will be celebrating Independence Day. Not too long ago, this was a holiday that brought people together, regardless of political or religious affiliation. Now, sadly, it is steeped in controversy. I don’t deny the unfortunate parts of our history. Every society has an ugly side. But I also…
He’s Got Me Covered
Hello friends, and Happy Wednesday! I have had an interesting week so far. I had a big project planned for next week that has been canceled. While I am a bit disappointed, I know the time I now have open can be used in other ways. This other project was making me a bit nervous…
Only in God
It’s Wednesday, and so I am sharing my “prayer post” from Facebook here. Plus, I’ll add more thoughts since I have more room! The first psalm in tonight’s evening prayer (Liturgy of the Hours) is Psalm 62. It is my favorite psalm, and I love a lot of psalms! I have heard and sung many…
Another Spring Day
Another beautiful spring day! With windows open, I love hearing the birds singing. Even hearing the hum of motorcycles go up and down the nearby busy streets makes me smile. We were able to visit some family in Rockville for Easter Sunday which REALLY made me happy! Now, Bruce & I are looking at options…
Follow the Way of Love
For several years, I have used Wednesdays on Facebook to ask my friends how I can pray for them. This started because I often took my mobility scooter to St. Paul Church for Holy Hour. Between winter weather, pandemic protocols and my own health, I haven’t made a Holy Hour “in person” for quite some…
