Power

This is where our power lies.  In the midst of any controversy we can  be drawn to this.  This is the power of Christ in our hearts and in our lives.  Is it easy?  No.  Is it possible?  Yes.

Wife, mother, blogger, Catholic ministry. I love to garden even when it goes wrong. Same with writing (and we know it can go wrong.) Believing that God is present in all of it.

  1. Annette, this is our hope in all circumstances – that through the Holy Spirit our Lord will give us the power to be more like Jesus. No matter what occurs in our Church, we know that in the end it is God whom we serve.

    Thank you also for the prayers for Karen and her little family. It is a struggle for her every day. God bless you.
