July 1, 2025 Hello! How is each and every one?  We are on the first day of the 7 th month of the year.  We are half way through the year 2025 and we are making it through the year 2025 with deep gratitude and hope that is full of joy.  How else can we live through it all? Our hope is in the Lord in whom we trust and depend on.  Without Him you and I can do nothing. He is our strength.   It is He who is eternal, all-good, omnipotent (all powerful), omniscient (all-knowing), and omnipresent (present everywhere).  He is deserving of all our love.  Nobody else loves you and me the way He loves-  suffering and dying on the Cross for you and me who are sinners?

June 17, 2025 Live Simple, Stay Happy and Be Healthy Hello! How is each and every one?  As we go through the rest of this month-full of feast days and solemnities in our family, the Mystical Body of Christ, the Church, let us truly savor and cherish all the blessings being showered over each one of us.  We have been receiving so much love and mercy from our Father God throughout this year, joys and sorrows are so united together like struggle and peace.  I am more and more convinced that they go together and they are doing the good they are allowed to do.  They are occasions or opportunities to respond with thanksgiving and joyful self-giving.  Somebody just responded that she was born to accept, to adjust and to adapt to whatever the good Lord sends her way. She added that she was not born to choose, but to thank God for everything after she realizes everything is good.   Indeed, everything is good because everything that happens is allowed by...
