A very short 6 weeks ago we lost two of our brothers in an off duty accident. My heart quickly steps into the shoes of their 2 beautiful brides and thier daughters…..I have not been able to get them out of my heart…

I think of all of the things….

Does anyone besides me ever say YES when you really mean NO?
This is something that I have battled with for a long time, and I am really trying to peel the onion peel back and figure out why. WHY I overschedule myself. Why I allow things into my schedule that only water down my effectiveness.

I don’t know if it was me or Him when the impression came to my heart to give away my piano.
I had wanted to play piano since I was little. The only piano I had access to was at my grandpa’s house. I saw him once or twice a year. and when I did, I was [...]

Jessie’s cast was shortened at week three. She could bend her elbow now, yet was even more hesitant than before.
“Jess, it’s ok to use the swing. You can do it. It just feels different than you are used to,” I tried to reassure her, knowing exactly why she was uneasy.
“But mama, it hurts when I bend [...]

“And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.”
Mark 4:39

She (the author) was hospitilized for stress related health issues. Listen to what she says:
“Now I would have to think about my life. [...]

“for by my stripes you are healed…..”
By now Jess and I were getting more used to being in tight spaces and not being able to move around much She was venturing out a bit, and trying to do more on her own. She had good days, and bad days.

I don’t know when the road of our lives took a turn, but the bend in that road sent us on a very long and difficult journey. I can talk about these things because I have moved past them and they are behind me now. God’s healing hand has lessened the pain as we have traveled [...]
