Shirt of Flame - Book Review
"Therese didn't so much want all for herself as to give all of hreself to God: 'I don't want to be a halfway waint . It doesn't scare me to suffer for You; I'm afraid of only one thing, and that is to hold onto my will . Take it, because " I choose all ," all that You want!'" page 5. I choose all.

60/60 Review
Good morning all, It has been a hot minute since I've posted. I am not ready to go into the details yet. I will though as I need to discuss it. I wanted to take a moment to discuss my 60/60 challenge. As a reminder, I had a timer that went off every hour of the day that I was awake as a reminder to pray for 60 days.

33 Days to Merciful Love
I have a deep respect for Fr. Gaitley. I believe he is attempting to make deep spiritual truths available to everyone in what I loving call baby steps. Baby steps are the key to what I believe true change comes in our normal lives. Not talking about extraordinary, supernatural events and changes.
