Little Things

I am amazed at how good the nice cool weather makes me feel today. I was thinking how nice it is and enjoying it when it dawned on me that "God provides" it. So I need to take time to be grateful.

Yesterday, the chaplain, in his homily, suggested we reflect on the various titles for Mary in the litany. I thought about "Virgin, Most Faithful" because I had a do list a mile long and was anxious about accomplishing it. The title reminded me that accomplishment might not be within my control but fidelity was. I labored all day, didn't finish, but recall that I was faithful.

Today I think I will focus on "Comforter of the Afflicted" because one of the sisters in my community has been at the hospital all day yesterday with her nephew who had brain surgery. I want to remember him and pray for him. So, Comforter of the Afflicted, care for Jamie today.
