Died a little inside last night

regret — just a short walk from our back porch… r-e-g-r-e-t

Ever have an unexpected wake up call hit you in the face?

Pulling into the neighborhood last night as our neighbor was removing his garage sale sign. They’re selling things to make moving easier. They close – and have to be out – in 14 days.

Been backyard neighbors with Bobbye and Harry for 20+ years. In their 70’s and full of wisdom, the endless (but rarely taken) opportunities to walk over, are, well, over.

Never thought they’d move away. Always thought we spend more time visiting. I died a little inside last night.

Am I a fair weathered blessing?

fair weather blessings — cloudy day with a hidden floor message

Am I a fair weathered blessing? Do I only give thanks when it’s convenient or only when it’s good?

Or do I give thanks all day, every day, no matter what? Even in heartache?

Don’t give up on God if you’re unable to attend Church

Disney landscape — a simple walk to the roof for fresh air can reveal untold blessings we take for granted

Don’t give up on God if you’re unable to attend Church. Truth be told, we’ve been missing quite a few Sunday Masses.

What frightens me is how easy it is to rationalize the absence, which then leads to another… and another.

God, so mercifully, provides us with unlimited opportunities for “Church” all day, everyday. Let’s use that to sustain us between physical visits.

It’s becoming more apparent he’s a fair weather Christian

Apple can help solve many big problems, but not the broken spirit (right?)

It’s becoming more apparent he’s a fair weather Christian.

The healthy have no need of a physician. Jesus came to heal the hurting, not those basking in spiritual health – for they have no need.

He’s hurting, but he doesn’t listen to his doctor. Not even sure he knows who his doctor is.

Pity.

The Pope is on Twitter

Everybody's using social media, even the Pope — Everybody’s using social media, even the Pope

The Pope. Twitter. Heard last week he is joining Twitter. Better late than never. Right.

Why join Twitter?

Perhaps it’s not that the Pope is embracing social media. Perhaps the Pope continues to embrace the people, and people embrace social media.
