In my last post I wrote how I had done something I never had before, gave money to a street person. I wrote how it reminded me of Matthew 25: 44 - 46 and "What you did for the least..." I have been reflecting even more on this over the last couple of days. As …

We Too Are in the Boat
One of the things I have come to understand in my journey back from waywardness, is to trust in Jesus. To trust that He will be there if I struggle and if I fall. Not that this means I can not try and just wait for Him to fix things, but knowing He is there …
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 …
We Will Be Judged
I came across this article in LifeNews today, about a rally at the Texas Statehouse. I think everyone who reads this knows I am against abortion, and this shows what kind of people tend to be for it. The article quotes the Bible: 34 You brood of vipers! How can you speak good things, when you are …
A Revelation
I had a revelation this week. No, it isn't a revelation where God handed me some stone tablets, and it wasn't a revelation like God gave to the apostle John about the end times. No, it was a revelation about what is wrong with the world today About seven years ago I became interested in …
Patience is a Virtue

This blog is one of those. (You can subscribe here) Last week's post entitled "Perseverance, Not Perfection" was …

This morning I read a post on the blog "Coffee and Canticles" regarding the common perception of the Apostles …
Trust in God
Today's first reading is from Sirach 2:1 - 11. This is a book from the Old Testament and is one of those which is not included in non-Catholic bibles, something which better minds than mine will have to explain. It is about having trust in God. Here are a few lines from the reading: Wait …
They Just Don’t Get It
While working on something else today, I came across an article, written right after Pope Francis became Pope, and it is a perfect example of how people, especially Americans just don't get the Catholic faith. The article was written for Yahoo! Voices, and the author bemoans the fact that the new pope is the same …
Me and God
I realized something today. All these years I asked "Why did God give up on me?" I should have asked "Why did I give up on God?"
