The Path

We all at sometime in our lives choose a path to follow, right or wrong. I was lucky in choosing my path, I had many friends to guide me and put me on the right track. Many of us will not admit that we all need help some time in our lives. How much easier it would be if we just were honest and asked for help. I found my path and I would not change it for the world. It led me to God, and to a wonderful group of friends, not to mention my wonderful family I now have, truly I must say St Finbar Church is the place to be.

On Being Different

I have always wondered about the facination about being "unique" or "different", some call themselves "Goths", others wear gangsta attire, so on and so forth, all for the purpose of being different or unique. Whats wrong with being who you are? Do we make the choice of being "unique" because it's our choice to do so, or because society dictates it so. Maybe i'm just too old fashion about my thoughts about being unique which is simply from the time we are born till we die we are all born with a unique spirit given to us by God. If God has done this then who are we to improve on perfection, because as the old saying goes, "God doesn't make junk!" If you choose to be unique do so with all the gifts God has given you.

Angels

Have you ever had a time when something that should not have happened, happens, or you change your mind and turn left instead of right and find out later there was a major accident where you could have been injured or even killed? Those are your Angels at work, not like that angel in the commercials but those that really care about you alone. We each have one, I have no doubts whatsoever that we do. I know I have had many times like that, so if you ever feel like someone is watching you and you turn and no one is there, be assured, there really is:)

The Unicorn's Song

THE UNICORN’S SONG
Every morning
Before the dawn
The Unicorn sings
His simple song
The tune is sweet
And not too long
More a prayer
Than a song
May in our darkness
There be a light
That shines forth
In brightest bright
To give us hope
In every way
And guide our steps
Throughout the day

Darkness and Light

Light and Darkness, they are with us all our lives. At our birth they are there, will we live or will we die, as we get older they are there, will that person love me or will they reject me? Am I going to get that job or not? There are some things in life we have no control over, but there are many things we are given a choice of doing. Many times that great Dark Wolf of Darkness beckons to us to follow it, and sometimes we do because it is simply easier to do and not worry about the effect it has on us or others. It is a much more difficult thing to choose the Little Child of Light and do the right thing because it is more difficult and it takes us out of our comfort zone. It is then we must grasp onto our faith in God to help us see beyond the Darkness and to help us make those choices that will enrich our lives. It is true faith in God which helps us to not fear the Darkness, but with that Little Child of Light, to be courageous and accept that Darkness and Light will always be in our lives, but so will God.

Prayer

Do you ever get the feeling sometimes your prayers are just not being answered? I know sometimes I have felt that way, but lately I have really come to realize the true power of prayer and how much more powerful it is when you have others help you pray. I think sometimes we tend to think of prayer like fast food, that we make our order then pull up to the window to receive what we prayed for. Our time is not God's time; he knows what is best for us and when it's best for us. A friend long ago once told me, "you may not get what you want, but you'll always get what you need." I hope you enjoy this little comic which I hope in a small way shows how good and powerful prayer with others can be.

Your Never Alone

Have you ever had those times when you feel like your walking a path all alone, those times when things just seem to feel so overwhelming and there seems to be no other path but the one you’re on? I know I have, but even at those times, it's our faith that keeps us strong in the knowledge that we are never truly alone and there will always be someone watching over us all the days of out lives.
