Morning Offering given… Lord, grant me tenacious winsome courage as I go through this day. When I am tempted to give up, help me to keep going. Grant me a cheerful spirit when things don’t go my way. And give me the courage to do whatever needs to be done. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Coffee good
The man sleeps… he waited up for me to get home last evening. It was after midnight when that happened. Good drive, no issues.
Liking my new cut and reading glasses. It was time for a face lift.
Today we attend the Jubilee mass and dinner at La Crosse. It is for couples that have/will celebrate 50 yrs of marriage. Those years went by so fast! I’d do it all over, God blessed me with a wonderful husband.
Today I listen to “Dark Horse” and “Sounds like Reign” on YouTube.
In the Catholic Tradition let’s talk about “Talents”… in the parable it talks about money as talents Matthew 25:14-30. Today expand your mind and think of not only monetary/material talents but intellectual/moral (intelligence, personality, & ability) and supernatural (divine grace, vocation, extraordinary powers). God gives each of us talents to be cultivated for his pleasure and in accordance with his design. Have you recognized and cultivated what he has blest you with? Are you grateful for them? Have you cultivated them? You have been given so many gifts, maybe they are not the same as your friend or colleague but are your personal gift from God. He wants you to recognize them and cultivate them for his glory. He has given them to you because somewhere in his plan they will bring people to Christ. Take the time today to recognize them and make a mental note about how you have cultivated them so far in your life and how you can expand them for the glory of God.
Know you are prayed for.
