Daughters of the Holy One… 06/27/2021….Sunday Home Communion

“Woooohoo!” That was me yelling last night as my friend’s college team won the Baseball championship. It was a great game and both teams played their hearts out, but one team now gets to claim they are number one for a year. It is interesting how much rank means to us. People laugh when IContinue reading “Daughters of the Holy One… 06/27/2021….Sunday Home Communion”

I AM HERE….. 06/23/2021 …..

Paul tells the Corinthians, “Do you want to be the best in something? Do you really want something to brag about?

MAY YOU BE WITH THE FORCE5/19/2021

It took me a long time to accept that I was being called into the ministry. A number of people have told me that I must’ve been mistaken because that wasn’t something women were allowed to do. Yet even as I was a child, I was the one who was chosen to be the preacherContinue reading “MAY YOU BE WITH THE FORCE5/19/2021”

HOW DO YOU TAP INTO HAPPY? – 5/14/2021 – Friday

I actually used to like doing taxes. Going through receipts would bring back happy memories of the past year, or remind me of things that caused me angst which didn’t destroy me after all. Putting it all together was like working on a puzzle. But now that puzzle seems to have turned into a 3-DContinue reading “HOW DO YOU TAP INTO HAPPY? – 5/14/2021 – Friday”
