And all before coffee

December 30, 2017December 30, 2017 ~ Teri Lucas Terificreations ~ Leave a comment

It's scary to step into a room of strangers and say, “Here I am, with all my flaws and fears! Please like me!” Much easier to stay home under a quilt and read, I think. But she summoned her courage and she conquered her fears, and we were all better for it. She taught us how … Continue reading And all before coffee

Change my Heart o God

December 28, 2017December 28, 2017 ~ Teri Lucas Terificreations ~ Leave a comment

I've been working on an impractical color wheel using thread I have on hand, I have a lot of thread, this is a hazard of being a quilter for a long time. Check out my progress over on instagram. This is a class I'll be teaching in January at a local to me quilt shop. … Continue reading Change my Heart o God

And then I stopped, and said, “Thank You!”

December 22, 2017December 22, 2017 ~ Teri Lucas Terificreations ~ Leave a comment

Have you ever wanted to thank God for something happening that was kind of rough to deal with in the moment, but deep down you know is the right thing?

Gaudete!

December 18, 2017December 18, 2017 ~ Teri Lucas Terificreations ~ 2 Comments

Mary deTurris Poust has a great reflection today on this, the third week of Advent, the week of the Rose candle, and the "O" antiphons, and the … Continue reading Gaudete!

Open the eyes of my heart

December 16, 2017December 16, 2017 ~ Teri Lucas Terificreations ~ 2 Comments

Instead of making resolutions for a new year I choose a focus word. Failed resolutions tend to highlight those places in life where both faith, and actual work are needed but do so in a way that invites shamed, and humiliated thinking. Each "failure" has the opportunity to be a stumbling block, or a stepping … Continue reading Open the eyes of my heart

This Little Light of Mine

December 14, 2017 ~ Teri Lucas Terificreations ~ Leave a comment

A reading from the Gospel of Matthew “You are the salt of the earth. But if salt loses its taste, with what can it be seasoned? It is no longer good for anything but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. You are the light of the world. A city set on a mountain cannot … Continue reading This Little Light of Mine

A prayer by St. Augustine
Prayer:
Breathe in me, O Holy Spirit, That my thoughts may all be holy;
Act in me, O Holy Spirit, That I love but what is holy;
Strengthen me, O Holy Spirit, To defend all that is holy;
Guard me, then, O Holy Spirit, That I always may be holy.

Amen.
