In the midst of a pandemic, peace be with you.
In the midst of protests, peace be with you.
Missing the human touch, peace be with you.
If you are still staying home, peace be with you.
Whether the day be sunny or gray, peace be with you.
Happy Saturday.
Today I’m thinking of venturing out to Canadian Tire for a couple of paint brushes. It will be my first retail experience in three months if you don’t count getting my snow tires changed over. Back in the eighties, one of my daughters gave me the following quote in the form of a wall plaque. It will be in my mind the whole time I’m out.
Lord, help me to remember that nothing is going to happen today that You and I can’t handle together.
Look what I found while looking up more hugging images. These pictures suit the title of this post, don’t you think? Happy Wednesday.
As mentioned last Sunday, church is not the building. Today you are invited to attend a different church. It’s just a click away thanks to AndiesIsle.com which is an experience in itself. Most services are an hour or more but this experience is less than five minutes. Happy Sunday.

I apologize for this inconvenience
Last night I watched two hours of Celtic Thunder. This young man, Damien, was fourteen at this filming and is now twenty-seven and still singing. It was very soothing. Happy Saturday.
For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them. Matthew 18: 20
With most churches and places of worship closed due to Covid-19, there are ways and means of still attending some kind of spiritual service, whether online or by telephone. We are to remember that the church is the people not the building. Here is a Church in the Wildwood to lift our spirits even though we aren’t able to accept the invitation at this time. Happy Sunday.
I’m looking at a beautiful day and hearing a beautiful song. It just needs to be shared. Happy Saturday.
Not one to let a day go by without putting pen to paper (or fingers to keyboards), here is an attempt at putting Covid-19 in perspective from my point of view.
Ode to Covid-19
Since I’ve been out the door
to visit all the places
I frequently explored.
My mind is playing tricks on me
I thought today was Sunday
and went online to church today
but it’s already Monday.
I’ve been told to “Stay at home!”
’cause I’m considered old
which wasn’t what I thought I was
until Corona Virus took its hold.
“Stay home and social distance
if someone comes your way,
and don’t forget to wash your hands
several times a day!”
My hands are very chapped and dry
from all that soap and water;
to add excitement to my life
I bought a teeter-totter.
The problem is there’s no one here
to weight the other end;
in order to get up again
Which brings me to the closure
of this rambling bit of verse;
I hope my mind can stay the course
Piggy backing on yesterday’s post, here’s another mountain to climb. Happy Sunday.
God said to Moses, “Climb higher up the mountain and wait there for me; I’ll give you tablets of stone, the teachings and commandments that I’ve written to instruct them.” So Moses got up, accompanied by Joshua his aide. And Moses climbed up the mountain of God. Exodus 24: 12-13
Remembering childhood camp songs is one of my favorite things to do. I sang them to my children and their children; how many of them will remember, I have no idea. Here is one that helps keep a smile on some faces during this time of frowns and fears. Let’s climb Sunshine Mountain today. Happy Saturday.
