A leap of Faith
Take a leap of Faith…God’s in control!
Put your trust in Him…with heart and soul,
Jesus does not deceive…or cajole!
But when his plan begins…to unroll,
Don’t be surprised…when you hit potholes,
The cross of Christ…is our totem pole!
Embrace “your” cross…don’t look for loopholes,
Especially if heaven’s your goal!
Patience with others
TKC!
“Patience obtains everything.” St. Teresa of Avila
If only we could all live this virtue more effectively…not to snap, not to judge and show anger, not to say hurtful words…but this effort is absolutely impossible without the help of God’s grace. Daily Mass, regular Confession, meditative prayer based on Scripture, rosary and marian devotion= FULL patience guage!!
God bless,

Catching the wave…of God’s inspiration
Hug your porcupine
TKC!
Always remember to love your neighbor; always prefer the one who tries your patience, who tests your virtue, because with her you can always merit: suffering is Love; the Law is Love. –Bl Mary of Jesus Crucified
Shortcut to sanctity and inner peace= hug your porcupine!!
God bless,

Finishing your day with Jesus
Allow the Holy Spirit to chisel
TKC!
“We are like the penny, because we have the image of the king stamped on us, the divine king.” G.K. Chesterton
When Michelangelo saw this particular block of marble in the quarry, he stated, “Moses is in this block of marble, I need to bring him out!” The Holy Spirit says the same when he sees our soul…”Jesus is in this soul, I need to bring him out.” Allow him to chisel, listen and act on the inspirations of the Holy Spirit in your life!!
God bless,

Visiting Jesus during the day
God is on the journey too…
“The feeling remains that God is on the journey, too.” St. Teresa of Avila
God is definitely on the journey to accompany and help us, but we need to remember he is there and acknowledge our need for him.
God bless,
