I Am Not Okay

Good morning... After yesterday's post, Okay And Not Okay, she texted right away. "I don't know if Jelly Roll meant this to be a song about faith," she said, "but that's how I hear it." Coincidentally, just the night before on the American Idol show, Jelly Roll was announced as the celebrity coach who will help the contestants [...]

After our life-giving discussion, she sent us all a text: "I just read this poem and it makes me think of our book and the special bond within this group, as we each remind each other that the sun does indeed shine." ****** "Coping" by Audre Lorde It has rained for five days running the world [...]

Awakening On Retreat

Good morning... 7:53 am. The sun will rise at 7:53 am on the sacred grounds of the Ignatius House Retreat Center. Fifteen courageous women, who are recovering from homelessness and addiction, will awaken on spiritual retreat in their own private rooms. What an incredible gift, the gift of alone time with God. My prayers are with these precious [...]

See Spiritual Beauty

Good morning... I don't usually blog on Sunday mornings, but God's guiding light is illuminating more wisdom for us. Yesterday, I shared this piercing picture and mini message. ****** Good morning...

Sit. Look. See.

Good morning... "As I sit doing my quiet time I look to the door and this is what I see ❤️🙏😇," she texted. As we see God in the quiet, might we begin to notice God in life's noise? God, the great God, the Lord, is speaking. He is calling everybody on the earth, from where the sun [...]

My Wish For You

Good morning... As we fell sleep at the crossroads of life and death, we had no idea if my mom would wake up in the ICU or if the path before us would veer in a different direction. The two words joining us at this crossroads were "gracious acceptance." We prayed that our family would graciously accept whatever [...]

My Mom’s Cough

Good morning... After climbing in the back seat and exchanging happy hellos at the airport, the first thing I noticed was my mom's cough. Pesky and persistent, her cough was concerning, still our natural conversation took on its own life. We enjoyed a yummy Olive Garden take-out dinner and a relaxing evening together, but my mom's cough was [...]
