    The month of October is dedicated to the Rosary. This coming Tuesday, October 7th, is the Memorial of Our Lady of the Rosary. The rosary has been a light for me, bringing me closer to our Lord, and His life. However, the history of the feast day is interesting and I share about it below

  • The Words I Speak

    Words are powerful things, they can either lift up or tear down, they can encourage or discourage, they can bring peace or discord, words are important.

    Lord, as I follow You, step by step and moment by moment, I feel the Holy Spirit is a part of my life. The Holy Spirit is the Helper, the Consoler, the Truth, which overshadows my life bringing light to my steps. The Holy Spirit helps me to pray to God when the words are

    Before the dawn, I awaken and sit in the silence. It is time spent at the feet of Jesus; I listen and He speaks to me. He says, “The way is simple, it is paved with love.” In the silence, there is faith; in the silence, there is hope; in the silence, there is love.

  • There is Need of Only One Thing

    The Gospel reading from Mass this past weekend touched my heart. St. Martha is one of my favorite saints. I definitely see my struggles with anxiety in a new way when I hear the dialogue between her and the Lord. I read this scripture quite often, as it always brings out something new for me

    Have no anxiety at all, but everything by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God.
