Shhh don't tell anyone, please. Oh wait I've probably alrady admitted it...I get distracted at Mass sometimes. Sometimes it's life, sometimes it's people, sometimes I have a hard time understanding the Celebrant. I do try to bring myself back to the present moment, there's not anything more important than that Moment. And tonight what really … Continue reading Twenty-Five

Seek first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness and all these things will be added unto you. Matthew 6:33 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26Mqmc5rWM8 As often happens there is a niggling at the edge of who I am, whispering in my ear, letting me in on a secret, or reminding me of some truth. It is generally a … Continue reading Coronado’s Gold, Fountain of Youth and quilt fame

Can I just share something with you? Well, of course I can. https://www.facebook.com/AscensionPress/videos/10154814444400832/ I've been wondering what to write. I've been wondering what to say.

Morning Musing
While on the bus last night the song lyrics were "fill me up Lord, fill me up Lord", my mind kept saying "empty me out Lord, empty me out Lord". I've shared with a few friends that with the shop closing, with needing to look for work, that there is a sense of being lost. … Continue reading Morning Musing

This time of year is akin to the new year, school is beginning, summer is winding down, there is an energy in the air (oh that's allergies!) that gets me kind … Continue reading On becoming more

It's come up in the play list on Pandora on two separate stations with some frequency, whispering sweetly to Trust God ever more deeply. Trusting God that he is leading … Continue reading Peaceful
Where are you leading?
I read this post by Mary deTurris Poust on her blog Not Strictly Spiritual Friday. Something deeply resonated in my heart, particularly after something I said earlier that morning. In some way I wanted to be part of something, a particular group of people. In an effort to not be whiny I'll leave it at that. Mary's … Continue reading Where are you leading?

The other day while at the quilt shop I had the opportunity to talk about different types of friendship with a 10-year-old quilter. She … Continue reading Value
