Where Are You Today, Lord?

Recently, my family visited the local planetarium. It’s always so fascinating to discover what astronomers are finding within the heavens and the numerous galaxies that seem to be discovered each day.  It is so vast and infinite.  There is so much space measured in years that a human could never experience.  We usually ask, “Why … Continue reading "…To Wander Through Space"

Because I’ve studied Theology, people automatically think I can quote and identify Scripture passages by the book, chapter and verse, that I must be extremely religious or harbor a “holier than thou” precept.  Um, not quite. Recently while discussing my academics in theology, someone challenged me that “I must know the passage of Isaiah 53.” … Continue reading "…The Author of Us"

“LUKE 11:29-32: Friends, in today’s Gospel Jesus tells the crowd that they will receive no sign, except the sign of Jonah, which was a prophetic code for his death and resurrection.Everything Jesus said and did, in one way or another, is an anticipation of his resurrection.

What word could describe the ultimate restitution of a sinful civilization?   It may not be one you think of first but it is mine. Freedom Easter Blessings, Paula  

As Pontius Pilate once asked “What is truth?” Well, truth manifests itself differently to each of us.  Sometimes we just don’t receive it with the same understanding or manner as another.  What ones believes is truth, another believes is false.

What a day! There was laughter, tears, joy, sorrow, grief, happiness, relief, and peace. Probably many other nouns and verbs, but I think the picture is clear. They were expressed and they were also felt. It was a very fulfilling day from the source of being! It’s astounding how alive one can feel when we … Continue reading "…Gift of Soul"

Reflection from one year ago: I spoke briefly today with a church community acquaintance whose husband had recently died.  They had been married for 60 years and both are pillars of the community. They were also the Grand Marshalls for the Labor Day parade. Their name and their contributions, to many in their hometown, have … Continue reading "…We Are Pillars"
