I've been having lots of conversations with myself lately.  I think one of my biggest problems in life IS myself.  Funny the things we learn as we get older.  I want to make sense of things, I want to know what and why, I want to have a measure of control, I want to choose. . . . and much of the time we just don't get to.  I KNOW that. . . and yet I continue to struggle.  Oh, the patience of God!

I quote this to myself often. . .(Hebrews 11:1). . . "Now FAITH is the assurance of things HOPED for, the conviction of things NOT seen."  If we could see, know, and totally understand it all. . . if WE had control. . . it wouldn't be faith . . . and, it would surely be a MESS!

201.  Faith - only by God's grace
202.  GRACE!
203.  Unconditional love and forgiveness
204.  Hope - which remains even when we lose focus
205.  Music
206.  Piano lessons
207.  High school choirs
208.  Musical theater
209.  New songs
210.  Family
211.  Nevada Day
212.  Salted caramel mocha latte - yummmm 
213.  Being thankful for things over and over again

  1. Hi dear friend,
    Yup I'm several thousand miles away, but I think about you, Woody, your children, and especially Sara often.
    I don't believe I will ever stop caring or thinking about you. Thought it might help you in some small way to know.
    Love,
    Bridget
