Avia Joy: April 2018

A Gift Well Hidden

      I wanted to ignore or deny my negative feelings. After all, we are celebrating the Resurrection of Jesus. He IS risen! Alleluia!

     I should feel joyous. I should feel happy and blessed, but instead, I feel stuck in Lent.

     What is wrong with me? Why am I feeling this way?

About Me

My passions in life are my God, my Catholic faith, my husband, our children and their spouses, our beautiful grandchildren, as well as our family and cherished friends. I love to read, write, share my faith, garden, and watch birds in my yard. I enjoy a nice cup of tea by myself, as well as with a friend. My lifelong dream is to visit the Holy Land one day, and walk in the footsteps of Jesus. I'd love to travel to Rome and also visit Marian shrines throughout the world. But I am content for now, to make pilgrimages with dear family members and friends to local shrines.
