Dear Diary

Dear Diary,

Thursday, April 25th, was a canvas of contemplation and simple joys. Our morning began with the Holy Mass at St. Ambrose in Des Moines, where the Ascension was the heart of the homily. We absorbed the profound message that heaven intersects with our daily lives, not distant, but close and guiding. “He took his seat at the right hand of God,” a statement of divine governance, resonated within me.

After Mass, our steps led us to Ginger's Coffee Shop, where serendipity smiled upon us. Ginger was there, and by good fortune, so was Howard, her husband. It was our lucky day to have coffee with them both—such an unexpectedly delightful encounter, sprinkling joy into our routine.

As twilight embraced the sky, we returned home to the warmth of the Inner Court. There, in the quietude, our prayers mingled with the day's reflections, seeking the guidance of our eternal sovereign. “Lord, rule over our hearts, let Your will direct our earthly journey as it does in heaven.”

As the night unfolds, we offer a prayer blending the day’s insights: “May the reign of Christ ascend in our actions, guiding us to a kingdom not made of stone, but of love and service.”

Goodnight, dear diary, until the morrow calls us anew.
