MInd, Body Spirit
Began a challenge. Wish me luck…I am beginning to feel my oats. Time to bring my body back around to where my mind and spirit are. Anyone want to join me?
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.
In Saturdays’s Gospel, I was focused on the passage from Matthew about putting new wine into old wineskins.

Let me know what you decide!
