A metaphor for everything in life we appreciate but hesitate to express

Feeding a hungry world is Father Ennis’ lifelong calling

 

I’m still a chicken. Yesterday at Mass I thought, this is the day. This is the day as we exit the Church, I’ll see Father Ennis (as Jesus of course) and get down on my knees and kiss his feet.

But it is still too embarrassing to carry out.

All of us, this is a metaphor for everything in life we appreciate but hesitate to express our gratitude. Some day the opportunity may be gone.

Father Ennis has grown and maintained his extraordinary Passion for over 50 years.

Remarkable.

Life is beautiful and we won’t be shaken from the $5 table

The closest GameStop didn’t have what we wanted, so plan B became this store

 

Walking out of GameStop after the teen’s purchase, noticed a Family Christian Store through the trees across the parking lot (rarely shop, and had never seen this area near the Mall).

Had been wanting to get Mandisa’s new CD, Overcomer. Also got Steven Curtis Chapman’s latest and these from the $5 table:

The Afters: Life Is Beautiful, Building 429: We Won’t Be Shaken.

What’s the point of this post? Even the smallest, uneventful of adventures can yield unexpected joy.

Jesus, a couple thoughts

Each new day is a miraculous gift, and we only get so many in our lifetime

 

Jesus, a couple thoughts:

  1. I do not want anything to come between us
  2. I do not want to hold anything back from you
  3. I do not want to hold anything back from the world
  4. I want to give all honor and glory to you Lord
  5. I want to use up everything you have provided

A humble servant?

Jesus, with every breath, I strive to serve humbly.

Was the 34-year wait worth it?

Lahti, Finland streets at dawn
It has been a long, quiet and often lonely journey

 

Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for bringing the catalyst for personal responsibility transformation to the production phase.

Was the 34-year wait worth it?

In many ways Father, this is Your will, not mine.
