Monday Whatevers

December 6, 2021

Hello, Friend! 

It’s Monday, so… inspired by on one of my favorite bits of the Bible, let’s start every week off with a little bit of whatever’s good and noble in the world. Here are a few excellent and noteworthy things I’m seeing in the world right now. Some are beautiful, promising, and reassuring. Some are poignant, thought-provoking, and necessary. All of them add to a greater knowing of God’s presence in this world, within our humanity, and out in the great beyond. And, they all prove there’s an abundance of spectacular, breathtaking tangible and intangible cosmic matter between us. 

Please feel free to share in the comments whatever is good that you’re seeing in the world as well.

Blessings,
Marcie

’Tis the season for whatever is true, honest, just, pure, lovely, gracious, excellent and worthy of praise. But ’tis also the season for joy, merriment, festivity and laughter. For my Monday Whatevers during this Christmastide season, I’ll be sharing cheery snippets of such warmth and delight – and this week, I’m sharing nostalgic videos of some legendary performers singing Christmas carols.

Cheers!
