Living for the Lord in 2011: Suffering
http://livingforthelord2011.blogspot.com/2011/04/suffering.html
Living for the Lord in 2011. The journey of my Catholic soul as I seek to listen to and live for my Lord Jesus (rather than myself). Friday, April 22, 2011. I am lousy at suffering. But the Lord is calling me to mental suffering right now, the suffering of uncertainty about whether we can reach our dear baby before his counrty shuts down to international adoptions sometime in June. A dear friend emailed me today and sent me these wise and comforting words:. How did Mary endure the passion of Christ?

Living for the Lord in 2011: January 2011

Living for the Lord in 2011. The journey of my Catholic soul as I seek to listen to and live for my Lord Jesus (rather than myself). Sunday, January 30, 2011. Why does my little girl have the privilege of falling asleep nuzzling my breast on a warm comfy couch every night. While another little boy has known only a rubber binky and a cold crib? Why can I not stop thinking about the injustice? At Adoration tonight I begged my Guardian Angel to go to that sweet boy and snuggle him close and keep him warm.

Living for the Lord in 2011: The Unbearable Joy of Everyday Life

Living for the Lord in 2011. The journey of my Catholic soul as I seek to listen to and live for my Lord Jesus (rather than myself). Friday, March 18, 2011. The Unbearable Joy of Everyday Life. We had a lovely, music-filled evening tonight at the spaghetti dinner at my oldest son's high school. He is a member of a co-Ed acapella singing group that is just awesome! And I just walked around in awe of it all. Praising God in my soul for so much more than many have or that I deserve. Jesus I thank you! It's ...

Living for the Lord in 2011. The journey of my Catholic soul as I seek to listen to and live for my Lord Jesus (rather than myself). Sunday, March 27, 2011. I have realized that all our adoption related activities and keeping up with that blog will be taking up a good portion of time the next few months. So if you would like to follow our adoption journey, please post your email in the comments or email me privately and I will send you the info. I will still be posting here as well, but only on Sundays.

Living for the Lord in 2011: Trust
http://livingforthelord2011.blogspot.com/2011/04/trust.html
Living for the Lord in 2011. The journey of my Catholic soul as I seek to listen to and live for my Lord Jesus (rather than myself). Sunday, April 17, 2011. A new challenge has appeared in our international adoption. One which I have no control over. And I don't like it. Give me a problem I can attack and I am ready to roll. Present me with an opportunity for horribilizing with little concrete action that can be taken, and I alternate between panic and terminal frustration. Serenity is not my strong suit.

Living for the Lord in 2011: February 2011

Living for the Lord in 2011. The journey of my Catholic soul as I seek to listen to and live for my Lord Jesus (rather than myself). Friday, February 25, 2011. Random Friday.turned into 7 Quick Takes Friday #2. I suppose I could have done a "Quick Takes Friday" for this if I could organize my thoughts into any reasonable facsimile of 7 bullet points. But the Dora video running downstairs is almost over, so here, in no particular order, is what is on my mind and heart today:. 6) I also thought of how we c...

Living for the Lord in 2011. The journey of my Catholic soul as I seek to listen to and live for my Lord Jesus (rather than myself). Monday, April 11, 2011. On my mind about abortion. I left the essay below in the combox of a fantastic blogger I have linked on my sidebar, Barefoot and Pregnant. My comments are underneath both there and here. Think about it, the same reasoning and excuses are used. Well slavery is not pretty but we NEED it economically in the South". Some slaves LIKE being slaves". So if ...

Living for the Lord in 2011: Following Mother Teresa
http://livingforthelord2011.blogspot.com/2011/04/following-mother-teresa.html
Living for the Lord in 2011. The journey of my Catholic soul as I seek to listen to and live for my Lord Jesus (rather than myself). Monday, April 4, 2011. It was a good week last week.a busy week.a productive week. A week of growing in holiness. And then I screwed it up on Sunday, the Lord's day. I felt "put-upon", blew up at few people in the household and generally threw a littler "temper tantrum". All while getting ready to leave for Mass! I need Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta at times like this!
