Peace is a Breath Away

Good Morning! It is a another rainy day here. I am looking outside at the two cute doves sitting on my deck. Whenever I see them, I know that God is watching over my family and me. During uncertain times, the Holy Spirit is a permanent sign of peace. I worry too much, if it… Continue reading Peace is a Breath Away

Next Friday is Valentine's Day. My kids are excited to exchange cards with their classmates and eat cupcakes. It is all cute and fun. I had to look up the history of Valentine's Day. It seems to have involved Christians converting people, miracles of healing, bishops secretly marring couples and executions. I can't make this stuff… Continue reading Love

Thankful For All The Good Stuff

Thanksgiving is almost here. Two more days. I love Thanksgiving. I love turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and thanking God for all my blessings. Sometimes, it can be tense.

Praying That Your Struggles Turn to Joy

Today is Veteran's Day. I am thankful for all the men and women who have served in the military to protect our freedoms in the United States of America. Those that serve in the military make so many sacrifices. Freedom is not free. Some make the ultimate sacrifice and die, so we can have freedom.… Continue reading Praying That Your Struggles Turn to Joy
