Thank you Mary. I’m returning to my ordinary crowded life after having a stroke. I realise after reading this that I have been dealing with this turn of events with resignation. Appropriate at the time but now no longer, it’s time for me to live life deliberately again.
Many thanks for your insights

A fitting reflection for this negative, divided world we live in today. Thank you.

Your commentary touches deep within my soul. Everything is fine in my life, yet I know I’m struggling to listen to God. I needed your line “instead of focusing on free bread, focus on the living bread”.
Mary, thank you.

Count your blessings Anonymous above me! Beautiful reflection and analogies Mary. You were definitely speaking to me. I really have to work on not doing it all and allowing God to move mountains for me. Relax, slow down, listen, do like the bee. That is my prayer today. Thank you and God bless!

It’s beautiful to be retired and experience the loveliness of the world. Your reflection speaks to my everyday-living in the country, taking in God’s gifts, trying to figure out if I’m a bee, squirrel, or bird!
Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for a nice reflection Mary. And in this modern world who among us does not have a cluttered mind?

Mary, your words spoke to me today. They echoed the prayer I said this morning before getting out of bed, Lord please help me to focus today on what needs to be done. I’m overwhelmed with work but put it aside this weekend to spend time with my children and grandchildren. Later today I have plans to play tennis (first time this year). I’m sitting outside this morning as I read your reflection, listening to the birds sing. It’s a beautiful morning. I pray that the work I do today glorifies God. Have a blessed day ?.
