WE WILL WALK WITH EACH OTHER, WORK SIDE BY SIDE5.4.2021Tuesday

Rather than getting aggravated at each other, exasperated, whining, or whatever emotions rise up in times of disagreement, why not recognize that our differences may actually help us balance out our needs? My prayer is that we will be thankful for the gifts of others and that we may indeed work side by side andContinue reading “WE WILL WALK WITH EACH OTHER, WORK SIDE BY SIDE5.4.2021Tuesday”

MARY HAS CHOSEN4.30.2021Friday morning prayer

I like people. I feel like everyone has gifts and beauty to share. Each person is a gift of The Creator and my world is richer by looking for the best in each one. Every life is a life to be celebrated. I find it easier to be in the company of some people moreContinue reading “MARY HAS CHOSEN4.30.2021Friday morning prayer”

For those who are heavily burdened: You are not alone. Your troubles can be opportunities to grow and learn when places in the hands of Holy, Life-Giving Love. May it be so. I invite you to join in pondering and prayer:

BE HEALED!4/23/2021 Friday

There are wounds in each of us, some very deep and very painful. These wounds can’t be healed by a wag of the finger or a smack across the head or by yelling, shaming, blaming. But they can be healed! I have seen people let go of the grip these wounds have on them. IContinue reading “BE HEALED!4/23/2021 Friday”

TAKE A LITTLE MORE TIME 4/22/2021 Thursday EarthDay

When I was growing up, the City Beautiful Committee sponsored “Clean Up, Fix Up, Paint Up” contests in the schools. We proudly created posters to share and learned how important it was to take care of the environment. I especially became an activist about litter. I have been known to stop my car and tellContinue reading “TAKE A LITTLE MORE TIME 4/22/2021 Thursday EarthDay”

Is it really impossible? April 20, 2021 Tuesday

I catch myself sometimes dreading the day ahead. This morning was like that. I had two hearings and had not received some of the information that I needed for either one of them. I got the information for the first one about five minutes before the hearing started. I got the information for the otherContinue reading “Is it really impossible? April 20, 2021 Tuesday”

For the moms4.14.2021Wednesday

I have two hearings this morning, one where I represent the child and one where I represent the mother in Dependency and Neglect cases. Both children were born exposed to drugs. Drugs cause a lot of the problems seen at Juvenile Court, but not all of them. Way too often, the root problem is traumaContinue reading “For the moms4.14.2021Wednesday”

THEY DO WHAT?!4/13/2021Tuesday

Do not be afraid. Many times in scripture we are told to not be afraid. I sometimes wonder if what becomes “hate crimes” is out of a sense of fear. We have been assured of God‘s love and we can love others, all others. Offering God’s love to those who are different than us doesn’tContinue reading “THEY DO WHAT?!4/13/2021Tuesday”
