As many of my readers already know I have moved back home for my final semester for student teaching. Along with that I have also been working at my local ski area teaching ski school. Now before I go into my story and main point, I just want to share a simple gratitude. My biggestContinue reading “Crying out… and some updates and gratitude”

The Straw in the Manger
My family whom I love dearly is far from perfect. And even on Christmas night, sometimes we just fall. Sometimes my pride says, “Oh Mikayla are you really so weak that you still fight with your family” or “Seriously aren’t you beyond this”. But the reality is I’m human. So on Christmas night when myContinue reading “The Straw in the Manger”
It is you
Today’s Gospel was about Joseph receiving a message from an angel in his sleep that he was to take Mary as his wife, and serve as a father to the child who would be called Emmanual. The reason I bring this up is to highlight the message that the Lord is also speaking to you.Continue reading “It is you”
The Beast. The Boy. The Man
This past Sunday I was sitting and watching the Broncos v Chiefs game with a few of my guy friends. As I was sitting there I had this random thought. I thought to myself if a robber came through that door right now I know that anyone of these gentlemen would take a bullet forContinue reading “The Beast. The Boy. The Man”
Mercy
Imagine you’re on a big cruise ship, and you look out to see someone who has fallen overboard. Any good human is going to grab a life preserver and toss it overboard. By no work or merit of their own do you choose to save that person. You see them struggling and about to drown,Continue reading “Mercy”

They do it to win a perishable crown, but we an imperishable one.Thus I do not run aimlessly; I do not fight asContinue reading “Running Club is not for Walking”
Why Bother Being Catholic? Part 2
Now there are people in the world who don’t believe in the Eucharist, in fact that person may be you. Truly you’re missing out. Outside the Catholic Church there is no Eucharistic presence (with a few exceptions). And to many people they don’t seem to care, but Jesus is Lord. And if He is LordContinue reading “Why Bother Being Catholic? Part 2”
Prayers of St. Bridget
Greetings, brothers and sisters! The memorial of St. Bridget of Sweden was celebrated on July 23rd. St. Bridget was a holy religious who dedicated much of her time to contemplating the Passion of our Lord Jesus Christ. Through mystical revelations (which she subjected totally to her spiritual director), she was given prayers that have a certain degree ofContinue reading “Prayers of St. Bridget”
Zeal
God constantly opens these doors for me, (such a gentleman) but there are some doors I don’t want to walk through, but despite my fears I’ve never regretted following His call. One big God moment in particular happened this week. It was a co worker of mine and she asked me how I felt aboutContinue reading “Zeal”
What if I Change My Mind?
Something Jesus and I have been talking about lately is changing ones mind. Everyone wants people to change their minds, but it’s so hard to change our own mind. And I’m not talking about changing your mind on big things like the faith, abortion, or things that are very black and white. I’m talking aboutContinue reading “What if I Change My Mind?”
