pfamilygal: Swimming the Tiber
http://pfamilygal.blogspot.com/2014/04/swimming-tiber.html
Saturday, April 05, 2014. Looking at the doctrines of various denominations, it became clear that only a select few taught the Real Presence. Roman Catholics and Eastern Orthodox both teach transubstantiation, and Lutherans teach something just short of it - that Christ is truly present in the sacrament, although the species themselves remain bread and wine. So the field narrowed fairly quickly. I didnt know you were Catholic, Anita! Im sorry you were treated poorly at ORU. What it all means.

pfamilygal: Umm, yeah, not exactly what I was going for there

Tuesday, April 08, 2014. Umm, yeah, not exactly what I was going for there. So I read this story. The other day and the last line caused me to burst out in unexpected tears. I decided to try his words with Leah Claire. I'd just given her a bath and as I helped her get her jammies on I was telling her how smart and kind and precious she is to me. I stopped, looked deep into her baby blues and asked her, "Where are you the most beautiful? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). What it all means.

pfamilygal: May 2015

Friday, May 01, 2015. I have really been enjoying Matt Maher's new album, Saints and Sinners. My current favorite song is "Everything is Grace." (You can listen to it here. With all the changes and upheaval in my life lately, the lyrics. Really speak to me. I was praying at Mass before the Eucharist a couple weeks ago and as I stared at the crucifix above the altar, the real sufficiency of God as my portion hit my like a load of bricks. He is not diet food. He is the feast. The God who spun t...Well, at ...

pfamilygal: October 2012
http://pfamilygal.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 15, 2012. The end of the story. Today is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day. Not exactly a holiday you wish to celebrate. Someday I will hold those children again: the ones whose feet never touched this earth, but were born directly into the courts of the Living God. Someday He will wipe every tear from our eyes and we will be together again. May God Himself comfort all who grieve their babies, and may He daily reassure us that this world is not the end.

pfamilygal: December 2011
http://pfamilygal.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 04, 2011. Strong men or wimps? Sorry for the absence. Things have been crazy around here (when are they not? And I've been mulling over a lot of spiritual things. A few months ago, we were sitting around talking at the park. We were discussing freedom in worship and several of them decided that it was "immodest" for a woman to dance during a church service. This came as news to me, since our church. I was incensed at their censure of the dancers. I could not believe that they thought...

Saturday, April 04, 2015. I usually give up Diet Coke for Lent. It's good to get it out of my system and rewire my tastebuds when drinking Diet Coke gets habitual. But this year I decided to try something a bit harder. I gave up Facebook (for the most part, though I did post a prayer request and look up some recipes). What idols are in your life? What substitutes have you been using to avoid intimacy with Christ? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). What it all means. I'm a woman in love with a Savior.

pfamilygal: On a ledge
http://pfamilygal.blogspot.com/2012/09/on-ledge.html
Thursday, September 27, 2012. First, an update on the kiddos. Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again,. But whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water. Welling up to eternal life.” John 4:13-14. 8220;Come to me,. All you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,. For I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. It so...

pfamilygal: June 2012

Monday, June 11, 2012. Educating as unto the Lord. We've been homeschooling for 5 years now. Five full, wonderful, stressful, exciting, exasperating, joyous, delightful years. And next year, we're taking a new direction. And the little boys, well, that's another story. Gabriel went to speech pre-K this year at the elementary school. And he thrived. His behavior has improved so much (and we actually understand him when he speaks! Or taking a nap! Homeschooling is God's perfect design for children. And pub...
