Ruth & Naomi Paul & Silas Adam & Eve Jesus sends the 12 Apostles out in pairs Moses sends spies in pairs to scope out Canaan So on our way to run a couple of errands this morning my sweetie and I went to daily Mass.

Trust
It's one of those weeks where things niggle at the edge, whispering for me to pay attention. I have some ideas where this is going, however my guess is the writing will be a combination of serendipty, inspiration, whispering, and guts. Taking stock is good. Getting through the overpowering waves of emotion before … Continue reading Trust
Called out Called up Called forth
Called Out This is the hard one. Being called out on something that gets your core is challenging at best. When taken to the heart it means that you have to take time to examine what is going on, and deal with it appropriately. Working through issues of the heart is tricky, involves the mind, … Continue reading Called out Called up Called forth
Sometimes
I miss listening to Faith in Culture Thursday on Busted Halo while driving home on. The Busted Halo crew, talk with listeners about where they see faith in music lyrics, television shows, books - that are not inherently faith based. These shows help merge those things in life which seem, on the surface, to live … Continue reading Sometimes
A Season
Ecclesiastes 3: There is an appointed time for everything, and a time for every affair under the heavens. A time to give birth, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to uproot the plant. A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to tear down, and a … Continue reading A Season

Once I find the envelopes I need this, and two other pieces will go in the mail. There is something beautiful that comes from the making … Continue reading Deeper Peace

After writing Frustration Redux I got to thinking about the line "buy the lie", and living an authentically faith-filled life. "Fake it till ya make it" and "stay positive" are popular sayings in our current culture, and we have a princess telling us to "Let it go!" When lo! and behold! Why rejection hurts so … Continue reading authentic
I know what he meant now
Did you ever have an experience where you remember exactly where you were when you heard the news? I remember with great clarity the moment my parents, who were just nearing 30, had to tell us that Grampa died. The rain was coming down so very hard that we couldn't see much beyond the door. … Continue reading I know what he meant now
Conversations about Faith
Sometimes as I sit to write the words flow freely from my heart and mind to the keyboard, onto this page. I have an idea of where to go, not so much a clear path to get there. Occasionally the where I think this is going, and where I end up are incredibly different. … Continue reading Conversations about Faith
Sharing a couple of blogs
Like a lot of people I subscribe to some blogs either in the WordPress Reader or via email, sometimes both. Somehow I've subscribed twice to one blog, which still has me puzzled. One day I'll deal with it, but not today. Beauty Beyond Bones posted Like a Woman Scorned. I may not have had a … Continue reading Sharing a couple of blogs
