Bits and pieces about me and other things. Skip to primary content. Hunger and Fasting . . it’s more than just food. December 20, 2013. Whenever I heard the word fast the first thing that always came to mind was food. Fasting always involved refraining from eating either a certain type of food or not eating food at all for a specific period of time. Fasting was done for a specific time frame or at certain times of the year. Did I ever seriously think I could or would fast from food? There’s a line in a s...

https://bitsofcathy.com/2013/12/12/a-critical-spirit
Bits and pieces about me and other things. Skip to primary content. December 12, 2013. I’ve found several definitions for the word critical . Expressing adverse or disapproving comments or judgments. Inclined to find fault or to judge with severity, often too readily. Tending to point out errors. Honestly I never thought of myself as being overly critical or negative. Sure, I expressed displeasure about situations/people but considered those responses as normal for me and how I felt. I’ve thought for a w...

Bits and pieces about me and other things. Skip to primary content. Peace for 2014 and Beyond. January 15, 2014. I gave myself permission to take a break near the end of 2013. To not post anything for a couple of weeks and to just take time and enjoy the time of year and to just reflect. So, what came out of all this reflecting? Trials, difficulties, frustrations, and just plain day-to-day life stuff happens to all of us and a lot of times there isn’t an ounce of peace in any part of it. Let’s just...

My time of reflecting at the end of 2013 showed me that I don’t do enough of it, especially with myself. Up to seven times? Jesus answered, I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times. I just need to remember that I am dearly loved by God. I am still struggling to define Me and who He wants me to be...

Bits and pieces about me and other things. Skip to primary content. December 5, 2013. During the month of November I always see a lot of daily posts on Facebook from people listing what they are thankful for. The things listed range from basic necessities to more complex issues. Of course this made me think about what I am personally thankful for and I realized that I am very blessed. And, more importantly I think, how often do we actually attach any meaning to them? Think they should there is something ...

One girl's search for the Good, the True and the Beautiful. Time enough for simple things ». June 23, 2010. So often, seasons of change seem to come in my life faster than I can perceive their arrival or process what the change means for me. My marriage is the best example of this. Even though we dated for a year and were engaged for another year, I still can’t figure out how I went from being the single girl who, though extremely extroverted,. The first thing I did in DC was leave DC. My cousin Juli...

I would assume that most people do too. However, what I have discovered in this journey is that when you consistently put this first and foremost before your own needs/wants/desires, etc. it can get very unhealthy. There’s a line in the Kelly Clarkson song Catch My Breath that says Turning my cheek for the sake of the...
