Thanks for being that kind of hero.

The real Heroes of the world are the men who take the 

time to make a difference in the life of a child.

To my Husband I love...being your partner, your lover, your wife. Sharing the closeness of our family life. Laughing about funny moments we've had. Seeing how caring you are as a dad.

I love...Being a couple and also best friends. Together in solving the problems life sends. Supporting each other in all that we do - And knowing I'm spending forever with you.

To My Husband Love you for all the big and little ways you make our life together so great.

Love you for all the day-to-day stuff you make easier, the already good times you make even sweeter, and all the ordinary moments that have turned into favorite memories - all because you're you. Happy Father's Day with All My Heart

Loving Creator, 

I know in your great love for me, 

you see the deep sorrow in my heart. 

Hear my prayers which are offered 

with such trust in you.

Be with me in both mind and heart 

as I renew my life in your spirit.

Make room for a better people

God of love, 
I know that you are the source of all
that is good and graced in my life.
Help me to move from the life of sin
to which I so often cling,
into the new life of grace you offer me.
You know what I need to prepare for your kingdom.
Bless me with those gifts.

My to do list for today

My savior, 
do you invite me to share 
in the glory of the resurrection? 
Please stay with me 
as I struggle to see 
how accepting the crosses of my life 
will free me from the power 
of the one who wants only 
to destroy my love and trust in you. 
Help me to be humble and accepting 
like your son, Jesus. 
I want to turn to you 
with the same trust he had in your love. 
Save me, Lord. Only you can save me.

Happy Easter :)

God of such unwavering love, 
how do I "celebrate" 
the passion and death of Jesus? 
I often want to look the other way 
and not watch, 
not stay with Jesus in his suffering. 
Give me the strength 
to see his love with honesty and compassion 
and to feel deeply 
your own forgiveness and mercy for me. 
Help me to understand 
how to "celebrate" this week. 
I want be able to bring 
my weaknesses and imperfections with me 
as I journey with Jesus this week, 
so aware of his love.

Holy Week

Loving God, 

I am just beginning to realize how much you love me. 

Your son, Jesus was humble and obedient. 

He fulfilled your will for him by becoming human and suffering with us. 

I ask you for the desire to become more humble 

so that my own life might also bear witness to you. 

I want to use the small sufferings I have in this world 

to give you glory.

Please, Lord, guide my mind with your truth. 

Strengthen my life by the example of Jesus. 

Help me to be with Jesus in this week 

as he demonstrates again his total love for me. 

He died so that I would no longer 

be separated from you. 

Help me to feel how close you are 

and to live in union with you.

Sometimes, in life, you have to let people go because they are toxic to you.

Don’t let toxic people rent space in your head.
Raise the rent and get them out of there.

Hindu proverb

There are hundreds of paths up the mountain,
all leading in the same direction,
so it doesn’t matter which path you take.
The only one wasting time is the one 
who runs around and around the mountain,
telling everyone that his or her path is wrong.

'Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadows. It's what the sunflowers do.'

If we look through the positive things there is no question of seeing negative stuff.

Life is a gift.
