Two years ago; this was our walk. We are still clinging to that same hope two years later. Rejoicing in cancer being at bay. Learning to live with our precious red head residing with the King of Kings. Remembering God is good. . . all the time. Though despair, at times is only a step away. God offers hope that is so much greater. ------------------------------------------------------------- November 19, 2013 To Despair is to Turn Your Back on God Day #19 of Thankfulness To despair is to turn your back on God. ...

That Inner Circle Day #18 of Thankfulness
Spent a lovely evening out last night. Amazing food and service. Treated by friends who never seem to let us go. Holding us close. Caring. Checking in. Helping us move forward. Friendship. Beautiful.

At First There Were Two Day #17 of Thankfulness
At first there were two. Two went with hearts bursting. To a country in need. My farmer and now college girl. When death and cancer had been our companions. A spark was rekindled. A yearning to go.

Sunday Dinner Day # 16
They gathered around the farmhouse table. Sunday dinner. These young men. Telling tales. Laughing. Looking at some hard times with humor. They are finding their way. The farm boy is digging deep these days. A change. Wrestling with the demons that threaten to pull one under. He gathers here and laughs. A rich laugh which reminds me of one gone before him. But yet so different. This farm boy has a carefree nature. Throws caution to the wind. (not always a good ... View Post

Overcoming Evil with Good Day # 14 of Thankfulness
Praying for Paris. As the first wave of news reports began, I contacted friends who live in the city. Part of their family I knew were here in the states on holiday. The others; in that city of love. Contact made. In shock. But safe. As the events unfold, the harsh reality of hatred is prevalent. How do we get to this point? The presence of evil; great. Fear inevitable. An apparent success. Ergo the term, terrorism. But that is not the final word. The story does not end there. There is a God who ... View Post
