It Wasn’t About The Omelet
During the last couple of days, I felt myself to be in a peaceful place. His love flowing and speaking through me, the Holy Spirit no doubt. I am grateful when He brings me back; draws me in, reminding me of His unconditional love and how it is we are to live our lives. A …
I Am the Living Water
My mind keeps drawing me back to the story of the woman at the well. From hearing the story in church during mass and in some podcast, something keeps resonating more deeply with her experience. As much as I’ve tried to be a good girl throughout my life, do what’s right, be open, honest, kind …

Encounters
My initial thought while reflecting on this past week, was to call it, “A blast from the past,” but that wouldn’t fully be accurate. You see, I was reunited with people from my past, but then I crossed paths with someone I didn’t know. The word, “encounters” seemingly popped into my mind, which was a …

God, Was it You I Dreamed of? Was it You Who Was There?

He Makes All Things Possible
God placed before me unexpected news, words of which I was unprepared to hear, let alone receive. I was nearly numbed by it. This wasn’t something I would have imaged to have happened to someone I know, rather suddenly. The person who shared this information, was the messenger, not the person who received the diagnosis. …
Be a Reflection in a World You Wish to See

No Matter How Blinded We Are, God Continues To Help Us See
The enemy has taken me to dark places, depths beyond that which one could fathom or imagine deep in the mind. I felt like a captive, being lost in the great abyss. Fear of the unknown, having to face, confront my own shadows and culmination of darkness in my 49 years. Battlefield. Battle ground. Desolate. …

Ebb & Flow of Emotions, God Still Loves Me Through Them All
Yesterday, I mourned the loss both of someone I did and did not know. I got lost. I was caught up in emotion. A part of me was grieving, mourning the loss of years gone by, lost opportunities, in a world where time passes by. Emotions…big and so many of them. Anger, bitterness, resentment-so much …

“This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.” (John 15:12) What comes to mind when you think about ways to love other people? For me, it’s about knowing who I am in Christ, seeing who I am and loving myself, which makes it easier to love others as He …
