How Are You At Predictions?
A stopped clock is right at least twice a day.
I hope my track record for predictions is a bit better than that.
Here I revisit 3 predictions I made some two years ago.
If Jesus’ Mother Had a Scrapbook
Mothers keep memories! Often in a scrapbook.
What if the mother of Jesus kept a scrapbook? It would be filled with what kept in her heart.
Might the mysteries of the Rosary be a peek at her memories of Jesus?
Is There an “Immaculate COMPLEXION?”
Have you noticed? In art, Mary never seems to age! Her face seems to be outside time and the messiness of life. How could her complexion remain so immaculate?
Why is Mary Fittingly Called Queen of Heaven?
I wonder how many would immediately answer the question saying because she is the Mother of Jesus.
It is certainly true she bore him in her womb. But might there be a deeper reason with many profound implications for you and I?
She is Queen of Heaven because of a much wider understanding of her role in God’s plan for us. It was more than just being a physical mother.
What Are You Afraid Of?
I suspect every one of us can admit to having been afraid.
Mary may have been the Mother of God, but I doubt she did not know fear.
he feast of the Assumption holds great hope for us.
With her Assumption into heaven, she finally understood how everything made sense.
Suppose You Were Asked To Be a Father To Jesus
Mary was not the only one shocked by a visit from an angel. It obviously came as a shock to Joseph!
Questions I would like to ask Joseph.
I Thought My Mom Knew Everything
I thought my Mom knew everything. I never thought to wonder how she knew so much.
what can we learn from Mary, Our Mother.
Is Christmas Over?
Did you miss Christmas?
In this Vincentian Mindwalk, I ask whether Christmas is the celebration of a moment in the past or something that takes place in your life every day?
How Many Languages Does Mary Speak?
Each December 12 many celebrate the feast of Our Lady of Guadeloupe. In this Vincentian Mindwalk, I slipped into questioning mode about the many apparitions of Mary. My questions begin with how many languages does Mary speak.. and why?
Tell me who your friends are…
“Tell me your friends, and I will tell you who you are.” In this Vincentian Mindwalk I offer a way of understanding Pope Francis through how and for whom he prays.
Ancestry.com and Mary’s memories!
Mary “kept all these things, pondering them in her heart” (Lk 2:19; cf. 2:51). We can remember with Mary some of the memories she kept in her heart. The rosary is an invitation to look through her mother’s eyes at Jesus, the center of her life!
Who Are the Wise People In Your Life?
Too often, we cannot see the forest for the trees. Our wisdom figures help us to step back and see where individual pieces of the picture puzzle fit. The wise person helps us see what is not always evident.
