TRUST GOD ONE DAY AT A TIME! &
“PRAY WITHOUT CEASING! ”

Never let anything so fill you with sorrow as to make you forget the joy of the Christ risen...Mother Teresa

BELIEVE
To believe is to know that every day is a new beginning.It is to trust that miracles happen, and dreams really do come true.To believe is to see angels dancing among the clouds,To know the wonder of a stardust sky and the wisdom of the man in the moon.To believe is to know the value of a nurturing heart,The innocence of a child’s eyes and the beauty of an aging hand,for it is through their teachings we learn to love.To believe is to find the strength and courage that lies within us.When it is time to pick up the pieces and begin again.To believe is to know we are not alone,That life is a gift and this is our time to cherish it.To believe is to know that wonderful surprises are just waiting to happen,And all our hopes and dreams are within reach.If only we believe.

St. Ignatius of Loyola

Take, Lord, and receive all my liberty, my memory, my understanding, and my entire will, All I have and call my own.

You have given all to me. To you, Lord, I return it.

Everything is yours; do with it what you will. Give me only your love and your grace, that is enough for me.

Embracing God’s Blessings



Sunday is a day to reflect on all our blessings, take 5 minutes and sit quietly and reflect on all the blessings in your life. You be surprised of how many we have, we are surrounded by plenty of unseen blessings that we are not even aware of .

GOD'S BLESSINGS
The man whispered "God, speak to me" And a meadowlark sang. But the man did not hear.So the man yelled "God speak to me!" And the thunder rolled across the sky. But the man did not listen.The man looked around and said "God let me see you" And a star shone brightly. But the man did not notice.And the man shouted "God show me a miracle" And a life was born. But the man did not know.So, the man cried out in despair. "Touch me God and let me know that you are here!" Whereupon God reached down and touched the man. But the man brushed the butterfly away and walked on.

Moral: Don't miss out on a blessing because it isn't packaged the way you expect.

I was thinking of you earlier today. I walked around outdoors in between rain showers, came back to the computer and here is your post! A lovely post too. You always touch my heart in such a special way with your encouraging words Virginia. I hope you are doing well and if I don't get another chance, I'd like to wish you a Happy Mother's Day next weekend. God bless.
