February is the month of the heart. Midway through the month we celebrate Valentine’s Day. This is a reminder to be a sign of Jesus’ love in our daily lives.
How can we do this? Here are a few holy “heart” thoughts. 💕
…serve others kindness
…be gracious in caring
…respond to others with dignity and respect
…bless each other with charity
…trust in God’s love more
…be a light of love
…appreciate God’s loving graces
…love in simple ways
…love is in peace-giving
…have an open heart
We get to choose..
…to be love every day
…to sacrifice for others’ well-being
…to forgive deeply
…to accept better
…to inspire by hidden deeds
…to welcome a stranger
…to share compassion
…to be a trusting heart
…to be generous of spirit
…to be a heart beat of faith-lived
Let us share this gift of February …all 28 days.
With much love shared and hands folded with a prayer heart that says “Thank you Jesus”. Amen.

Calendar. 2023
The first few days of a new year very often seem quiet
Holiday decorations are being taken down
Wreath and Christmas tress are left at the street curb to be picked up
Leftovers are almost gone
The memories of a passed year are tucked away
A new year beginning …
We hear some of the same news…
…war continues
…poverty is present
…injustices weigh people down
…people mourn
…divisions continue
What has changed?!
I truly believe the human heart…💖
…brings compassion
…cares deeply
…shares courage and hope
…gives comfort and consolation
…embraces all
Your heart and my heart can be a source
of Jesus’ presence in a shaky world
We will not be brought down or abandon
doing good by the violence of war and the
disregard of kindness and respect .💖
Each day you and I can choose to share our
hearts so that another human being feels loved,
cared about and uplifted .
Is this always easy…No
But it is the way of Peace.
Just think how you can begin each day of this new year …
Put your heart into every thought, word and deed. Amen. 💖
