I John 3: Beloved: See what love the Father has bestowed on us that we may be called the children of God. And so we are. The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Beloved, we are God’s children now; what we shall be has not yet been … Continue reading Beloved, let us Love one another
Christmas
Merry Christmas dear ones. Thoughts of Christmas and this Season whirl around in my head, like snowflakes in a light wind. Frittering to and fro before landing and becoming part of the overall landscape of things. Thoughts of Mary giving birth to her only child in a barn, and laying him in a manger filled … Continue reading Christmas

Drafts
Often when I write posts they are a result of on-going internal processing and prayer. I wake up hearing a song and the end result is a reflective post on that song. "Oceans" along with Journey (word of the year) being frequent themes for 2015. Both are a recognition of something deeper stirring. I don't … Continue reading Drafts
Examination
Galatians 6: 1 - 10 Sisters (Brothers), even if a person is caught in some transgression, you who are spiritual should correct that one in a gentle spirit, looking to yourself, so that you also may not be tempted. Bear one another’s burdens, and so you will fulfill the law of Christ. For if anyone thinks he is … Continue reading Examination

A heart that clings to the gift of God's infinite LoveGraceMercyCompassionPeace. A heart transformed, a heart understanding of the Gift of this love, understanding deeply and profoundly how living in this LoveGraceMercyCompassionPeace offers … Continue reading Littleness

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNGdcq0pAuU The words to Majesty are the earworm of the week. A full week. Autumn gets me thinking about beauty, about life's journey, about this blazing, amazing moment of richness, and depth that happens. About the JOURNEY of it all.

So this is a dual post one where I caught myself getting annoyed with someone on more than one occasion. And STOPPED it cold. In both instances the person is new in their position and learning something that takes time. Customer Service in any way, shape, and form, takes time to learn. And on the … Continue reading entitled
Why would you?
Two things this morning kept me thinking. Apparently enough to slow me down enough with something that needs to be done by this weekend. I'm not so much having writers block as it is writer's pause. I'm pausing to do something else and think for a bit before proceeding with the writing. My favorite Priest … Continue reading Why would you?
