A Living Rosary:

*******

Tonight I was part of a living Rosary.
50 people gathered  seated in a circle with an unlit candle.
As each Hail Mary was said, a candle was lit...then that person lit the next persons
on the next Hail Mary. (And the lights were dimmined)
We said the Five  JOYFUL mysteries:
(Annunciation, Visitation, Birth of Our Lord, Presentation of our Lord
and finding of Our Lord in the Temple)

Between the decades songs were song by Donna Lee, Gretchen Harris,
John Grasadonia and Deacon Patrick Conway.

It was very beautiful and touching.
Held at Resurrection Parish in Aptos.
Sorry if you missed it.

The Serenity Prayer:

***

"Keep the faith..."


God grant me the serenity-
to accept the things I cannot change-
The courage to change the things I can-
And the wisdom to know the difference.

                                         

                 Do you think we can talk God's ear off?
                          I sometimes wonder!  

                              Pray the Lord's Prayer that Jesus taught us...often.

Faith:

Faith is not about everything turning out ok. It's about being okay no matter how things turn out.
                              author unknown 

Keep the Faith:

It is important to look for little miracles from God who is so present in our every day lives.
I found one!  No, I'm not old and silly.  I took this old rubber band off a package of note cards
and envelopes and tossed it on my desk.  When I looked down the rubber band
formed a heart. Even when touched it returned to this shape.

 Thank You, God...I love you back!!!

Fear and Faith: Choices

Fear and faith can't live in the same house.

They do not co-exist.

So, what do you do when you are afraid?

PRAY!
