Snow Day


It's a snow day --- John is over at Gramma's shoveling snow and carrying pellets inside. Michael is playing on the wii and Rachael is cleaning her room (but probably "hanging out" listening to the radio). I had a chance to use my snow blower - always fun. Now I'm inside defrosting, checking email etc. Peace seems to be the theme the last several days -- a real internal peace that comes from knowing "all will be well." Today I found this prayer from St. Therese . . . she who believed in doing little things in life well and with great love. She is often my source of inspiration when I feel inadequate or overwhelmed by the "hugeness" of life and life's problems.

May today there be peace within.
May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.
May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith.
May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you.
May you be confident knowing you are a child of God. Let this presence settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love.
It is there for each and every one of us.
