  • I feel that peace has left me and anxiety has returned. It has happened a little each day until I now find myself unsettled and restless. It is like being tossed around in a turbulent ocean. Thoughts from the past vie for my attention, current worries surface and the future makes me anxious. It is…

  • God, the Father, has been a mystery to me and continues to be a mystery to me. He seems so far away but that is not the truth. He is close, He shelters me and He cares for me. He is one with the Son and the Holy Spirit. They cannot be separated and remain…
