I’ve been thinking about my heart these days because I had my third heart surgery in five years a couple of weeks ago. That coupled with an impending birthday has me reflecting upon this very vital organ. I hope it is strong. I hope it is healing properly after this last surgery. I hope it […]
It’s 4 days after Resurrection Sunday. We’ve stood before the flower covered cross and marked this day in our lives. We’ve given thanks for this life we have in our risen Christ. We’ve eaten Easter dinner and candy. We’ve even made Easter candy cookies. This week my devotional book has me reading the events and […]
Every week as I drive to and from church, I see Red Jesus and Blue Mary. Some days they whisper words of love and faith on days when I am struggling. Sometimes I am challenged by the faith of the family who honors the Savior and Mother Mary and how they understand you can’t have […]
I used to laugh about making lists. When I was younger, lists were optional because my brain was able to keep up with everything. Or it wasn’t so full of worry and stress and responsibility at least. But now, now, I make lists: grocery lists, packing lists, gift lists, things to do lists… In the […]
I stumbled a few days ago. I was investigating a grotto that I pass almost every day on the route to my office. It stands at the point of an overgrown wooded lot. Someone makes sure the grass doesn’t over take the grotto. The back of it faces an intersection of 4 streets and in […]
This word is stuck in my mind. It is a real word and in fact, a very rare word. Most people use words like largeness, enormity, abundance, vastness, instead of bigness. After Hurricane Katrina, I made many trips down Beach Blvd. in Hancock County as I worked with my team of case managers, construction coordinators, […]
Some of my best days are spent walking in the woods with my camera. When I was about 15, I experienced the presence of God in a powerful way while walking the south rim of the Grand Canyon. Our family camped and so there were lots of woods and mountains, streams and lakes, and beaches […]
Matthew 27: 32-61 32 As they went out, they came upon a man from Cyrene named Simon; they compelled this man to carry his cross. And when they came to a place called Golgotha (which means Place of a Skull), they offered him wine to drink, mixed with gall; but when he tasted it, he would not drink […]
Matthew 26:57-75 57 Those who had arrested Jesus took him to Caiaphas the high priest, in whose house the scribes and the elders had gathered. But Peter was following him at a distance, as far as the courtyard of the high priest; and going inside, he sat with the guards in order to see how this would […]
Matthew 26:31-56 Then Jesus said to them, “You will all become deserters because of me this night; for it is written, ‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’ 32 But after I am raised up, I will go ahead of you to Galilee.” Peter said to him, “Though all become […]
