If you look close enough, you can see God in everything. In everyday life when you least expect it, He will give us lessons to live by. I have a perfect example of this. When you have no clue, God is teaching you! My neighborhood, particularly MY yard, is overrun by squirrels! Oh, they aren’t […]

St. Francis once said in every way, share the Gospel of Christ and when necessary use your words. We are supposed to be the hands and feet of Christ so what does that mean? It means we are supposed to do what Chirst would do. Today’s scripture, Matthew 5:16, is pretty specific. “Let your light […]

I love this saying cause it so applied to me many times. “Don’t judge someone’s story by the chapter you walk in on”. Not that I judge, but others have judged me and they still do to this day. My past was a mess; but God got a hold of me and shook me up. […]

What does faith mean to you? It’s something to ponder for sure. Do we have the faith that God wants us to have? We have all become leery at times while having to make big decisions in our lives; especially when it affects our families and not just ourselves. Faith means we aren’t afraid when […]

When I was a little girl attending Sunday school, my mom’s biggest concern was what I wore. I had to dress to the utmost best for church. I didn’t realize at the time that’s how she was raised and that’s just how it was. You go to church in your “Sunday best”. We can take […]

I live in Pennsylvania and usually we have four seasons. The season I want to talk about today is the season of fall going into winter when the leaves have come off the trees. It is amazing how much you can see when all the coverage is gone; when you have a much clearer view […]

1 Thessalonians 5:15-22  I can’t remember where I heard this quote before but I think it is a sentence in a country song. It goes something like, “don’t let your mind out think your common sense”. These days, we are told so often we must have open minds and be tolerant of everybody and everything no […]

James 2:14-17  “What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical […]

Psalm 37This Psalm of David has helped me many times during strife in my life. This psalm reminds us not to worry, be envious or angry because of something that someone else did or said about us. We have to trust in Him and His justice will prevail – always. Getting upset about others actions only hurt […]

1 Thessalonians 5:14 Most of us are impatient for God to grant us the desires of our hearts. Usually, we know what we want and we want it now; right now if not sooner. But God may have other plans. When God’s plan differs from ours, we must trust in His infinite wisdom and love. […]
