Look Up
In my mind, I have been carrying confusion, grief, and anger. I just haven’t felt like I was on the right path. I have been on the “struggle bus” some may say. Struggling with my family, struggling with my heart, struggling with the world’s deterioration of good and defining good, struggling with death, and struggling…

Women and Men of Good Will
In my mind, I have been so busy with a head full of dreams. Dreams of rescuing children suffering in an America full of resources, but failing to clothe, feed, shelter the most vulnerable and valuable in our society, the widows (elderly) and orphans (from neglect from addiction not just substances but also the ego…

Grace Overload
In my mind today, I am still exhausted from last Saturday. It was the annual Autumn March for ALS. This was the 9th year for the race and my 13th year of living with ALS. I am so, so blessed to have been given longer than the average 3-5 years. I have tried my very…

What a Life!
In my mind today I am so happy. I want to share yesterday with you. Let’s look at a day in the ALS life. On Saturdays I stay in bed until early afternoon. I give my troops, my caregivers (Abbey and Andy) time to get up slowly. As soon as one of them wakes up,…

In my bones
In my mind lately I’ve made a big mistake. I have taken my eyes and mind inward. I have allowed the pity party of this earthly life to take my focus from what really matters in one’s life. Students in the back row, it’s not “The all about Me Show.” Trying desperately to fulfill your…

Helpless
In my mind today, I have so many sad thoughts and feelings. I don’t want to leave my bed. I am trying desperately to outrun ALS, but I am in another valley. There seems to be no more outs to pull me through this. I know it’s different this time because I NEVER want to…

Anti-Christ Culture
In my mind today, I am thinking about how blessed I am. To be able to have a purpose for God and the ability to share the messages of Him is my purpose until I get to the Spiritual season. Because of amazing children and Hospice care, the future’s so bright, I gotta wear shades!…

Our Hour
John 7:30 His hour had not yet come. In my mind, I have been thinking about the D-word. As soon as we are born we begin to die, like a light bulb. My husband’s wise father used to say this. It is true. Lifespans have always varied depending on access to resources, genetic dispositions, and…

Take a Little Walk with Him
In my mind, I am thinking about Lent. The first Sunday of the 40 days leading up to the most important day for human beings. The promised Messiah came and fulfilled the prophecy of death and sin destroyed by this God Man named Jesus. Jesus in His 33 years changed the way to eternal life.…
