Where Are You Today, Lord?

Reflection from one year ago: Today, I received a text asking “what I thought” about this meme: I replied that “we don’t need to judge anyone because that is left to God”  and that “we all think others’ sins are worse than our own when in reality any sin separates us from God.”   She replied … Continue reading "…Degree of Sin?"

Reflections from one year ago: One brisk morning back in April 2013, my best friend and Confirmation sponsor Katie and I had gone away for a weekend “down the Cape”.  We were celebrating my recent Confirmation at the Easter Vigil.   It had been an adventurous 7 mos of meetings, questioning,  purging, and revelations of quite … Continue reading "…The Living Bread"

Reflections from one year ago: Today begins with an expected snowfall of 8” ending sometime before midnight.  This is a great day for tying up loose business ends from 2016. Rummaging through receipts, updating mileage and expense reports, paying bills, filing, and organizing tax preparation documents. Of course, this is being done in the midst … Continue reading "…Grateful For Mundane"

That’s the world’s greatest lie.”  – Paulo Coehlo We are neither alone nor abandoned when … Continue reading "…Seek It Like Silver"

One morning as I lay awake attempting to start my day, I was contemplating how much I wanted to sense joy – pure and unfiltered – again, and most … Continue reading "…Joy"

Reflection from a year ago: As I was driving and pondering about how this new endeavor will form, I noticed a sign which read: “The grass withers and the flowers fall,  but the word of our God endures forever.” Isaiah 40-8 Ah! Of course! Here was my instruction – the source of content and structure … Continue reading "..In the Beginning was The Word"
