Support for the Daily Journey

I have been wanting to blog for the longest time and just haven't had the time lately.  I can't believe it's already October 20th!...Wow, the summer sure flew by and Sept is long gone it seems.  We are fully engaged in school and moving along with each week, attending therapies for the boys, and our weekly home school co-op.  We have had a few bumps along the way - quite literally a bump by another car rear-ending us recently while heading to therapy!...but it was okay, minor damage.  Still there are not enough hours in the day, and as I type this, I should be up and getting ready.  Just wanted to say HELLO and may God bless you abundantly today.  If you are in need of spiritual direction and would love to prayerfully meditate on the words of Christ in the gospels and other great spiritual writers, do consider the In Conversation with God series by Fr. Francis Fernandez (a priest of Opus Dei).  I find the day to day wisdom to be so invaluable, and when I get away from my morning devotions of reading this, I seem to be less prepared for what the day brings.  I have gotten so much out of the encouragement and spiritual direction.  Fr. Francis tells it like it is, using our Lord as model and guide.

You seem to always have a book or other mediation ready to whip out at any given moment!

Lol - I try :) This particular one came with all the volumes as a gift from my mother in law many years ago when she asked if there was anything special for say...St. Raphael's bookstore I would want for Christmas...well, yes..as a matter of fact!...I had gotten the first volume myself and adored the writings and encouragement. When I need a good talking to, you know...like quit your whining and grow up ...lol!...this is the book. Really it hits home for sure!

Blessings,
