Be at peace in all things, because the enemy, who always fishes in troubled waters, takes advantage of our discouragement to achieve his intentions more readily.

Once we realize that Jesus came to save the entire human person and not just the soul, so much of the worry, stress, and burdens we heap upon ourselves dissipate.

This year, I am wandering the Mojave in my mind and heart.

We grow as persons each time we make even a small self-sacrifice in giving to another, in loving another.
