Usually I am praying in the car on by way back & forth to work, but it is still a priority to watch the road! This way I can remind myself to pray even on my day off! This is a simple way to keep me on track, and devote that five or ten minutes entirely to the Lord...starting TODAY! Thanks for the idea for adding prayer to my to do list.

It can seem impossible sometimes to find a candidate to vote for who is in line with church teachings and has a chance to win.<br>We find ourselves deciding whether to "vote for the lesser of two evils" or some third party candidate who we like more. Are you one who believes that voting for a third party candidate is a waste of a vote and should not be done? If so, the choice is often either vote for the pro life candidate or vote for someone who might better aid the poor. Good message.

That is still the case today. There are people who think that they are too smart to believe in Jesus. I am not smart enough to know all the answers. In fact, I think that anyone who claims to know all the answers is fooling themselves. I am not afraid to tell people that I don't know. There are a number of times in the church when our explanation of something is "It's a mystery". I liked the first reading where Paul says that Christ is foolishness to the Greeks.

I am reading a book now, called "The Last Lecture", by Randy Pausch. While not a Christian per se, he does write about how good life is and gives lessons for daily living. All this while dying of cancer. It always impresses me when I see people who don't give up and feel sorry for themselves. We can all learn a thing or two from St. Paul, and from Randy. I recommend the book.<br>One of the saints that we had at St. Raphael was Cathy Daren. She was the most upbeat person I ever knew with cancer. She died almost 5 years ago. The fact that these people are able to give thanks even when it seems like they don't have things to give thanks for. It makes me realize I need to look closer. We all have things to give thanks for.
