Nothing, just needed to stretch my legs.

Ahoy! Pray the Surrender Novena. Pray the Litany of Trust. Surrender and trust.

Sometimes I will be sitting in mass, or adoration, or cutting up with Fr. Miguel like we’ve known each other for years, and my in mind is blown that I am Catholic. It’s that feeling from Easter Vigil, when K and I smiled at each other after receiving our Chrism oil, all over again: this is real.

Old Fashioned Friday

Women are so cute. Some of you don't seem to appreciate this and it really is your loss.

Is it manifesting a cool autumn and cold winter if I buy a lot of flannel whilst it is still hot?

I don't have some great personal connection to Bl. Fulton Sheen, but he still played an early part in my conversion. I remember seeing him here and there early in life and thinking he was a vampire. He had that elegant aura about him. Years later, that elegance - not his specifically - is part of what drew me into the Church. We never know what seeds we may be planting, nor who may be planting in us. Bl. Fulton Sheen, pray for us.

OCIA update: - the group is beginning to open up, asking good questions - ran into Fr. Dorman again, the priest who gave me my first rosary. I think he and I are becoming friends. - ran into Fr. Miguel. He actually found me. Had a nice catch-up. - talked to the fellow facilitator that Deacon Tony tried so hard to sell me on. She’s cute. 🌹

Help is on the way. Keep asking, though. I’ll get you before bed. No one gets left behind.

Adoration rosary tonight at 6pm cst. If you would like to be prayed for, let me know here or elsewise. Luke’s are considered requests.

Day 5 of the Surrender Novena is where the need for trust really kicks in: "And when I must lead you on a path different from the one you see..." God, 'must' is a strong word. Can we talk about this?

I do not want an extraordinary life. I want an ordinary life with someone I love extraordinarily

Longest period of time between last and first morning in the 50s in Dallas: 175 days Last year: 165 days (second longest) Current streak: 135 days (37% of the year). I think it ends in the next 10 days. I hope.

Texan watching everyone enjoy autumn

The high yesterday was 98. What the heck

Some nights the great act of courage is just this: tomorrow, we try again.

Praying through the Surrender Novena is such a comfort. Maybe, just maybe, God really will take care of everything if I just get out of my own way.
