Apology
I am thinking about apologies today. I have been wondering why apologize. Because our parents forced us to say we were sorry even though we were not? We were taught to apologize when were caught doing something our parental unit decided was wrong. I googled apology. I found an interesting list of things pertaining to…
Judge
Judging is a touchy subject. No one wants to admit they judge anyone, but we all do it. I have felt the sting of being judged. I strive towards not judging others and I was thinking I was doing a great job. That is until recently. Funny how blind we can be. As you know…
Too Focused on My Pain
I wake up with pain in my hips and back. I have tried not to complain but have failed miserably. I have iced, rubbed stinky heating gel on, and taken over the counter meds. I cannot walk because of the issue with my knee. There is so much more that I could write, but I…
Good Friday
When you look at all the events of Good Friday, how can you say it was good? It was horrible for one, but good for many. I never really thought much about Good Friday growing up or all the events that lead to the cross. By now, as a child, I would have had my…

Lord, I seek your guidance during this time of uncertainty. Calm the fears that we may feel. Protect us from this devasting virus. Teach us to pray Abba Father. Teach us to seek you. Teach us to change our new norm into something that would bring you to others… As I sit in my robe…
Fearful Today
How do you quieten fear? What is making you fearful at the moment? These are questions that I have been asking quietly in my mind as I walk through grocery stores without toilet paper. What makes one buy more than two large packages of toilet paper in a crisis that is going to affect us…
Liar, Liar
“Liar, Liar, Pants on fire” was a chant I learned when I was growing up. When my daughter was growing up, we rented a movie called “Liar, Liar”. One of the funniest movies I have seen. What is it about lying that just seems to be a rite of passage growing up? We all lie,…
Community
What is community? I have asked myself this a lot lately. The definition of community is 1) a group of people living in the same place or having a particular characteristic in common; 2) a feeling of fellowship with others, as a result of sharing common attitudes, interests, and goals. This can be difficult to…
