  • The Great Love of God

    I sit in silence, and ponder what the Lord has said to me. My heart is overwhelmed by the great love of the Lord during this most sacred time of the year. Every year of the Lenten season, followed by the Passion and Resurrection of the Lord, I experience something different and new. I feel

  • Holy Week

    I sit in the silence contemplating this solemn time of Holy Week. It has begun, the way of suffering; it is the path to the resurrection. This is the way that Jesus walked, and it is the way I am to walk. He needed no help from us in saving us, without Him, we can

  • The Way

    As I continue on the way into the desert with the Lord, I grow tired and a heaviness comes upon me. I take my eyes off the Lord and grasp for thorns among the flowers; I do my will; I stumble and fall; I am covered in dust. The Lord is with me, I am

    This past weekend I attended a silent retreat in a beautiful setting surrounded by tall trees, a serene lake, and beautiful grounds. The weather was still a little cold, so I only went outside one of the days for a walk down to the lake and sat awhile on a park bench with the sun

  • A Gentle Healer

    The Lord has been with me, as a little baby. I have not spent much time with the Lord this way. He presents Himself to me, as an infant, and invites me to spend time with Him. He doesn’t talk to me, but I understand that He desires me to sit with Him. He is

  • Peace

    This past Friday, I attended a Women’s Advent Retreat at my Parish. It began with a beautiful candlelight Mass. The Church was glowing with twinkling lights and a peace entered my soul. I was drawn closer to the Lord by the beautiful music, the scripture readings, and receiving Holy Communion. As I sat with my

    For I know well the plans I have in mind for you, plans for your welfare and not for woe, so as to give you a future of hope. When you call me, and come and pray to me, I will listen to you. When you look for me, you will find me. Yes, when
