I Ask You Why

Originally posted on June 6, 2020 I’ve been struggling these past two days with what to say. I want my words to be compassionate but I’m angry. And I’m desperately heart-broken. So, I’m working at it. I cannot comprehend how anyone could justify using teargas and force to clear a church yard of people whoContinue reading “I Ask You Why”

This will take time

I did this post in early October of this year, over several days of seeking relief from a great loss. It’s not how I usually write but my circumstance is not the “usual” for me. I hope and pray it helps you in healing from whatever it is that pains you. God’s peace, my friends.

How this came to be…

Although it has taken over a year to bloom, the seed of this blog sprouted early on a Sunday morning, sitting in the dark in a hotel room in Dallas.  I couldn’t sleep and needed to transform all the thoughts in my head into words on a page.  As I opened the cover of myContinue reading “How this came to be…”
