You’re Not the Only Mom With a Wayward Child
I haven’t heard from my prodigal for several months. She never calls to check on me, and I don’t have her phone number because she changes phone numbers often. I guess she has no compassion or love for me.
But today, I want to encourage you. I just wanted to let you know that you are not alone. I recall thinking I was the only mom who had a daughter who turned her back on her mom, but I didn’t have to go far to find more moms and dads with wayward children.

Holy Spirit Confirmation
I don’t share this story often, so please don’t laugh. I planned to roast a whole chicken for a neighbor in need. With my visual impairment, I had made the mistake of cooking whole chickens upside-down. As I basted the chicken, I prayed. “Lord, please don’t let this chicken be upside-down.”
