On this Thanksgiving Day, I thought I would write something I am sure no other blogger in the world, or at least the US is writing about today, what I am thankful for. Yesterday was a very windy and rainy day here in the northeast. I make deliveries and and I had to wait at …

Are They Right?
Why isn't it enough to believe? Yesterday I was doing some research for a possible article and read something written for atheists on how to argue the existence of God with someone who believes. And of course this got me questioning my beliefs. Are they right when they say there is no scientific proof that …
Spreading the Word
Therefore you have no excuse, whoever you are, when you judge others; for in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, are doing the very same things. - Romans 2:1 How often have we judged others? Probably ore than we realize. I know I certainly do it. Whether at work, at …
Can We Bring God Back?
In some of the posts on this blog I have bemoaned (not there is a word I don't use everyday) how we are taking God out of the "Public Square" especially here in the US. This isn't just a Catholic issue or even a Christian issue, it will eventually affect every religion. I am an …
Where I’ve Been
I'm back and I bet you are wondering where I have been. About two years ago I felt that God wanted me to do something, I wasn't sure what, but I knew there was something, I was being called. Then I figured it out, I was called to write. Something told me I needed to …
Turn the Other Cheek

Is That All There Is
Way back in 1969 there was a son out called, "Is that all there is?" recorded by Peggy Lee. For some reason i was thinking of this song the other day. Okay, I know the reason, He did it to me again. You see I was thinking about how I have changed my thinking on …
Different Eyes
Isn't it funny how we think about something and then the answer just pops up somewhere? This morning the answer was in the daily Gospel reading. I always ask myself how a guy like me who really doesn't have a whole lot, who is just getting by, can follow Jesus' teachings about giving to the …
Choices and Grandchildren
This morning my fifth grandchild entered the world. Yes, it is an occasion of joy, but it is also an occasion of some sorrow and some depression. Anytime a new life enters the world, this is a joyful thing as God has created another being in which He can flourish. But therein lies the sadness …
Satan is Knocking at the Door
I'm pretty sure I have written before about my dreams, and how I believe this is one way in which Jesus talks to me. I believe He will and has in my case, send us messages in various way, many times we just don't listen. This makes me wonder if Satan also does the same. …
