Because life happens

And sometimes it seems to be happening at a surprisingly fast clip.  And all my well intentioned plans don’t seem to be executed as well as I’d hoped.  So today is my day to give you  some thoughtful and hopefully thought provoking post on knowing, living or sharing your faith and all I have is this.  LIfe has been so full of living and sharing that I haven’t had a minute to write a thoughtful post.

We began faith formation classes yesterday and we will celebrate Confirmation this coming Sunday, so my office is a bit cluttered which makes my brain feel the same way!  I am way behind on my viewing of all the Pope Francis videos as well as my reading about his trip last week.

But still, I have much joy and so many blessings. And each day I am reminded that my faith in God and his unwavering faith in me is the greatest of blessings.

I will leave you with a link to my reflection on today’s Gospel and pray that your day is spent in love and service, remembering your blessings.
