Balancing act…

I have been searching all week for my lesson and I thought I found it. I felt that I was being spoken to, through stories and ideas that all seem to be linked in a subtle way. A piece of conversation with a friend over breakfast, a story someone told me during a lunch meeting, or an event that I experienced. I felt there was a connection and my mission was to find the answer.  I was prepared to take the test by writing it down to see if I could fit all the pieces together. Continue reading →

A few days ago our dinner conversation was about my grown daughter sharing a discussion she had with her co-workers about the possibility of Bigfoot. Her co-workers found it amazing that there is a reality show on the air about searching for Bigfoot, and even more astonished that it has a following.  Obviously, they are not Bigfoot believers.  The reason she was amused is because she views us “God” believers in the same way.  How can people say that about Bigfoot and then go to church on Sunday.

The summer of 2014 our family worked on a garden path. The path started on Memorial weekend and we completed it by the 4th of July. In the middle of June and in the middle of this project, a major event rippled through the family, creating waves that shook a few stones loose in my “life path”.  In my quiet time I was inspired to write….

Almost exactly a year ago I wrote about the hummingbird in my journal. It was the end of July 2013 and I had left the church I loved. I was so torn up about it. This church was the first church I ever attended regularly and now in my 40’s finally found a home. It was special to me and it broke my heart when I left.
