  • I Get It Lent Day #34

    I am struggling, Lord. This Lent is pulling at my heart. I am weeding it as we have been talking about and my heart is so tender. When I pray, the tears come and my breath catches in my throat. My God Goggles see so much beauty and goodness and tragedy of this earthly life.…

  • It

    We all crave it.  It is a precious commodity.  It creates security.  It fosters fairness.  It influences temperance or moderation.  It seeks to serve the helpless and hopeless.  It builds reliability.  It generates kind-heartedness.  It promotes relationships and community.  It designs authenticity.  It forges modesty and produces chastity. It brings patience.  It fabricates joy.  It…

  • A Mrs. Missing

    I am happy to report I have been very busy. God is blessing me with more work! I have been reading your messages but I’m crazy busy. I have had many spells, day and night, of crying uncontrollably. I miss my husband so much. I miss my body before ALS. I miss feeling beautiful the…

  • 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…

  • Can you tell a story in 54 words Jo and Tom #11

    Thinking now of gestational acne rolling down HWY 41, Jo turned the radio on; the song was “Spaceman” by Harry Nilsson. Would Tom be happy? Would he want to come home?
